Hi, I'm Willow, and after lots of WOOFing, van life, and helping other people build their dream homesteads, it's time for me to start my own. Let's chat, and if sparks fly, maybe we can build something together!

A little bit about me...I got my permaculture design certificate in Washington in 2019, and managed to make it through the next few years on a regenerative farm living and working for a nice couple in Oregon. Since 2023, I've kind of been bouncing between a few different places in the Oklahoma and Arkansas areas, going back and forth between a couple farms when they really needed the help. I mostly worked with social media, farmers markets, and the plants and foods they sold at market, but I did learn a lot about goats and sheep while I was with them. Not enough to feel like I could take on animals by myself, so if you are good with animals that's a bonus haha I'll do the plants, and you can do the livestock!

I do want kids, but I also don't feel like I have to rush into anything too fast.
I like yoga, good food, nice music, and pleasant smells.
I love a good weekend camping trip.

I'm wanting to get some land soonish, but also am not opposed to moving on to an already established homestead for the right person.

So there it is...I hope you're out there somewhere, love.

Wandering the Ozarks is my favorite break from the farm. I have a couple of places that could use the skills, capabilities, and experience that you mentioned..! If interested in hearing more about this , while you are looking, and not rushing..! I can answer all your questions, and any curiosity at the same time, and vice-versa... bayou caretaker 357 atg mail... Located in South Arkansas...  There's a few cows, chickens, a couple of horses... These places , Definitely need a touch of a green thumb, and more..! So to speak..!

Hello, I'm creating a homestead in Eastern Tennessee based on vegan and ecology minded principles with the hope of attracting and building a community. Have you ever considered walking the vegan path? I created a thread in the intentional community subforum with more details about my vision and experiences so far. I could use some help with permaculture design.

Hello darling! You didn't specify what sex/gender(s) you were open to relationship with... I wouldn't want to make assumptions

45m, cats are my only company right now. I've started a homestead in the middle of Missouri 20 wooded acres of heaven. I'm a mix of Ron Swanson and the IT Crowd. Been married twice. First, lasted 6 years before divorce. The second, lasted 17 years before she died of cancer. Two years ago. We had goats clearing and fertilizing the underbrush until 3 years ago. After they cleared it the brambles, the prairie flowers exploded from the seed bank. It's far enough of the beaten path that we can leave the doors unlocked with no worries. I'm living in a geodesic dome compound with three hundred or so sqft each. I have intentions to build another three with two of the new ones being earth contact.

If you want another option I'm interested. 35yo, no land yet. Ozarks or Appalachians is where I'd like to be.

Age 44, western Washington state. I have owned this 6 acre Homestead for four years. trying not to get ahead of myself. Got pretty excited when I moved onto the property, and started a bunch of projects and got overwhelmed. Now simplifying and working on design and how to incorporate more people. I don’t have formal Permaculture training yet but I got a BS from Evergreen in human ecology that included a lot of Field ecology, biology, and a year of ecological agriculture. After graduating, I worked on the Fukuoka farm in Japan. Lots of room here to play, grow things, build things. Feel free to reach out.
