Hello,

I am looking for all opportunities to grow and cooperate with others who have similarly aligned goals. I have been searching for jobs at biodynamic farms and non-profits, but local offerings are limited.

I have 3 years of experience working on production farms, one of those years as a manager. I have also done 10 months of volunteer work in earthen building and other permie skills.

Currently living in New Jersey, I am growing vegetables, trees, and seeds on a friend's property. Unfortunatly my land access here is tenuous. They might sell the property. The next owner might mow down my saplings, for all I know. Meanwhile my current day job leaves too little time for farming.

Saving seeds, crop breeding, trees/other perennials, and supporting ecology are my primary interests, and I would like to teach others about these practices while I continue to learn. As a farmer,engaging with the ecology and the community are mandatory to me.

I would be happy to join an already-existing effort, either new or established, and I am ready to relocate for a real suitable long-term prospect.

Please reach out!
Thanks for reading.

I have land you could live here and get an RV. You could live off grid. I could charge you 400 a month and you can have a garden area for the farmers market..make soaps etc. I need help with my permie schooling and an earthbag home plan to be built. You can do work trade or get a job also for 300 in rent. We could work out something mutually beneficial.

or get a wall tent.
I just received my PDC. I am working on a diploma and PHD in Permaculture as well.
Please let me know
