Brian,  your tiny house building project and development tiny house campground is of interest and I'd like to work in exchange this spring/summer. We have common plans, last names and I'm wanting to do the same type of place in the future. I've done industrial roofing in Alaska,  5 years experience several years ago.  I'm seeking a tiny house or natural build project to join and assist individuals doing this type of construction for living,  lifestyle alternatives. I'm looking to work 3-4 months this summer on a project like yours as I live in Las Vegas and may either restart consulting business or decide some thing permanent in your area as you recommended.  In the event you are needing laborer for your project email me nortonderek@aol.com or text 7022000180. I'm not needing income from the rentals. Interested in building these structures and working on your project this summer and possibly next few summers until I get some land purchased. All the best Derek

Dear Paul,
I'm reading this description for this site manager, promoter, and basically someone to get your facility functioning as a place/spot for visitors/clients to come get/be active, learn and enjoy the environment, setting, and all there is to experience at the site and in the area, and simply function and generate revenue, build 'repeat' business, and expand your permaculture/build/design/community project concepts.
I'm seeking an opportunity to generate revenue, increase this lifestyle, products, and experience. To return to this way of living and lifestyle while building a business and your facility... I would like to speak to you at your convenienc, submit a resume, write more to communicate my ambitions, mindset, personal information and foci, as well as hear more of your motivation(s) and pursuits.  
Such an endeavor as this is what I've have been looking for in other regions of the world yet this is right in Montana.  I'll digress and not be long-winded. In short, I'm looking at this opportunity to generate revenue and promote and live this sustainable/eco lifestyle. I am business-minded, money motivated, and seeking an eco-tourism/permaculture type setting that is striving to operate for profit, experience, and promoting all that is available. Contact me at nortonderek@aol.com or text/voicemail 702-200-0180. Regards and all the best. Derek Norton

Sergio,
I have similar thoughts, sentiments and aspirations as Markus. Can you share any details as to location(s), price range, and any other relevant information for future purchase? Derej
agreed about the tiny house thing, but the concept has its place and purpose when it comes to affordable housing and shelter at obvious reduced cost while having most of the modern amenities covered. I agree with you on spending less amounts for what is needed based on the environment/setting.

or even to assist in your starting and eventual building of your earthship... with materials or moving dirt around, collecting tires, etc... i'm very much interested in the natural build and somewhat tiny house but not to the point of such modern amenity needs that are being built, yet the concept of a park model instead of a mobile home, the modular component instead of the prefab, shipping container framing, etc... or simply natural with your earthship, adobe, and rammed earth (passive solar) principles. I've looked into various areas in Oregon Utah and Washington and thought to contact you upon your ad and mention of sharing your land in exchange.

or if you are wanting to turn it into a producing or functioning permaculture or shared living eco/community for others. from the photos with the open fields and flat land...

Hello as I'm new to this site and perusing the forum seeking to find an exchange-type arrangement as your's states.
I spend my fall to spring in Las Vegas and looking to do an inexpensive, work/build-type exchange with a land owner
for summer use as a respite/getaway and willing to trade labor and maintenance during this time. Have you found any
one to build your bridges? My interest in to have a basic/primitive tiny cabin/natural build that is not needing to be much
involved or extreme. Just shelter and functional for summer getaway and escaping desert/summer heat here. I'm not in position
as of now to afford my own property and am searching this site and others for a shared or trade-type situation starting this summer
and definetly next summer. I have property in northern MI with a sibling and have this option but its shared since out west this
is my initial thoughts, so I wanted to inquire.

Hello Nancy.  As I am researching various spring/summer projects to get involved in,  your family's needs and my plans and aspirations match fairly well for the same months/time frame.  I am looking to head to a living/work/building/maintenance trade/exchange until the end of August.  Mainly,  to escape the heat of Las Vegas.  I work as a consultant, 46, single and am seeking this type of work exchange you describe.  Here's my email and LinkedIn page.  I'll send personal info via email.  Nortpnderek@aol.com.  www.linkedin.com/in/nortonderek text 7022000180
