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

...  and cats in their cars ...


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

Sam Sullivan wrote: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,

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?

Anything about brexit or visa stuff is entirely ignored by us.

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.

Does that mean you will or you won't accept me, please?

I plan on driving out, I don't have a suv, just a smaller hatchback. Do you think it'll make it up the mountain during for the Jan 26th slot?

Their lease ends in March, and if I can find a subletter for mine by then, we would both be free of commitments out here in society and excited to stay as long as the going's good. Just have a couple questions before we get too excited!

1. I know people have brought cats... but would FOUR be a problem? What are the logistics of feeding and housing them?

2. My partner has celiac's - is there any way that they could be accomodated? They absolutely cannot have gluten, and cannot safely eat in a shared kitchen without it being thoroughly decontaminated first (or at least a safe work section). We would of course be willing to put in work on our own end of this, whether we have to prep our week's meals all at once or help build an accessory kitchen etc.

3. If we are bringing a car, what are the logistics of storage? (I can't be the first to ask this, but I did not see a search function sorry!)

4. If we are on an Rx,  will we be able to access that and take it at camp?

We look forward to hearing back!
Logan & Hunter

Regarding the  "turnkey permaculture paradise for zero monies (march 2025)"...
Are we required to commit 40 hours per week for the next 4 years?
In other words, we need to relocate to your location?
