Yes. We have had a number of boots bring their cars successfully.

Boots with cats tend to tent.  But sometimes the set up in some of the cabins when they are not rented.

Hi Permies!

I have two quick questions about bootcamp. First, I understand that there is a waiting list once I submit my 100 monies. Do you have any sense of how long this waiting list might be? I could potentially start this fall. I'm just trying to gauge a) how soon I could get in and b) how difficult it is to get in.

Second, I'm curious about whether bootcampers can use wifi on the weekends to work part-time online jobs (like 5-10 hrs/week) to make a little cash on the side. I just want to make sure that if I join, I have a financial plan.

Thanks for all this inspiring program! Please have a beautiful day!

Sincerely,
                    Sam Sullivan

We haven't had the waiting list for a few years.  So there is no wait, other than waiting until we have a day for new boots.  The next few days are

august 4
august 25
september 15
october 6
october 27

Boots use the wifi on the mornings/lunch/evenings and weekends. Easy peasy.

I, like Devin Little, am stuck because of timing.

Hi Gemma, I don't know the answer to your visa question right now. But you could look into being Paul Wheaton's Virtual Assistant.

Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire.

I'm from England and I was just wondering if you still accept people from the UK in light of Brexit, please? Also, would I have to get a visa and what type would it be?

Not hiring VAs right now.  Not sure if we will hire VAs again.

If somebody wanted to rack up coin exercising our affiliate programs, that would make some coin.

Good Morning,

My name is Casey and I’m a current environmental philosophy graduate student at University of Montana. I am interested in permaculture, homesteading, and sustainable food systems. I’m currently taking a class called Food Justice and Sustainability. We all assigned to complete a project in which we explore an aspect of the farming community in or around Missoula, and then present our projects to the public at the Missoula County Ecology and Extension building at the fairgrounds in early December. I became aware of the SKIP program last year after reading the publication about it in Mother Earth News. As we discuss issues of land access and the need for new farmers, I continue to think about the importance of this program. I would love the opportunity to learn more about it and create a project that helps to share this opportunity with the Missoula community. I am hoping that I might be able to connect with Paul Wheaton or other organization leads in some capacity, whether that be over the phone or (even better!) through a visit to the land. I am really very flexible and grateful for any opportunity I may be able to have in connecting further with this program.

Thank you very much for your time,
Casey
