If you're hard working and passionate about a future in clean growing, we'd love to talk with you.
We are seeking people for spring 2016 with permaculture and farming knowledge that are ready to partner on a rapidly growing farm. We're Certified Organic and Bio-dynamic Certified. We are lucky enough to have a market that we are challenge to keep up with. I have my PDC and Advanced Permaculture Practicum and was lucky enough to spend a week with Sepp Holzer in CA for an Advanced Practitioner Workshop.

We are in southern VA, in a tiny county and have now reached a point where permanent farming partners just make sense. We have plenty of available land for anyone interested in settling down vs interning or Wwoofing. We have a 2 bedroom cottage (grey water system) for our guests that we're happy to share in exchange for seasonal help (6 month minimum) and/or for a couple folks to live in while we see if a longer term partnership works for both of us.

Here's a link to what we've accomplished so far and we welcome questions and input.

Hubby is a professional artist blacksmith & his shop is also on our farm.

We are now accepting applications for spots that will open in early March.

thanks for checking us out!

We still have spots for the right folks and so much to do.
