Lady Liberty Farm in Rensselaerville, NY
Looking for a Winter Farm Assistant/Manager (potentially longer if the
situation works for everyone)
We are an Eco/Holistic Educational Organic Farm and Retreat Center in
Upstate NY. Our 90
acre property is at a 2000 ft elevation with an 8
acre lake, several ponds & creeks and mostly wooded. We specialize
in spirituality,
sustainability, healing, heritage produce, livestock,
flower essence, aromatherapy and herbal products.
We have extensive gardens full of
medicinal & culinary herbs, small
fruits and produce. The breeds of chickens, ducks, pigs and
rabbits,
that we've chosen for the farm, are all on the American Livestock
Conservancy's list of critical, watching or recovering species. We
also have dairy goats and make cheese, yogurt and kefir.
We are looking for winter/year round WWOOFers and/or a farm manager for
longer term. Non smokers, no alcohol or drug use. This person or
persons need to be able to focus, multitask and have awareness of
their actions and the potential results of those actions. Balanced
and self directed learners, creative problem solvers and people able
to think outside of the box, those with the passion to experiment.
Experience is helpful but even more important is a willingness to
learn and be open.
Our ideal situation would be a long term synergistic partnership with
a couple or a group of individuals looking to create a wholistic, sustainable
community. We have the
land and a vision and need the intelligent
input and
energy from those that want to learn and share their gifts.
Plant knowledge, building/carpentry skills, alternative energy knowledge,
previous farm experience and management skills definitely a plus
Opportunities would be available to teach, learn and share. We are working
on putting a 24'x48' hoop house over some of our existing raised beds so
we can raise food over the winter. We also have a coliseum aeroponic
system that we would like to get set up and experiment with.
We have a room available in our main building with use of facilities
(kitchen & bath).
Please call Rachel at (518) 797-3373.
