Currently I operate a "mini farm" with 2 goats, 7 ducks, 2 geese, 3 dogs & 2 cats! I moved the entire farm 27 miles up the river the help of 2 awesome helpx's back in July 2012. Don't let the name "Mosquito Lake" put you off! For a limited time we have them, but really they have been pretty benign and the beauty and wonder outweigh the minor intrusion! Fence maintenance, composting, food processing, dig a windrow for the vermicomposting, fix a few things in the goat house and build on to the duck house (or build new), brush clearing, and general organizing, house cleaning and up keep are especially needed. I need to get my winter wood in as well. and any number of other chores! Interested? it is the most beautiful place and so many opportunities here. You will never want to leave!

We are a wilderness lodge located on Saltery Lake, which is on Kodiak Island. We are in a true wilderness setting, as we are the only humans on the lake. A salmon stream is accessible all the way from the lodge to the ocean by foot or four-wheel-drive vehicle. We are only a 15-20 minute flight from the City of Kodiak in the lodge's floatplane.
We enjoy huge runs of Silver (Coho), Red (Sockeye), Pink (Humpy) and Chum (Dog) Salmon in both the creek and the lake. Dolly Varden trout are always in abundance. Naturally, fly fishing is our most popular activity. Other activities include hiking, sea kayaking, boating on the lake, and viewing or photographing abundant wildlife. Bald eagles, waterfowl, sitka blacktail deer, fox, kodiak brown bear, and even wild horses and bison are common visitors.
There are 6 guest cabins and rooms for the crew inside the main lodge. Each helper will get their own room.
General help is needed, mostly prepping for the chef, tending the small gard...

I just bought ranch in a micro-climate in the coast mountains of Northern bc and will be living here with my girlfriend emma. Cherries in the sub-arctic and sunny and 25 all summer. You have your own room in the main house (there are 8 total), there is internet, phone, sauna, weight-room, swimming pond, hiking, biking, fishing, boating, etc. Its a northern wilderness paradise. I will be slowly getting the farm going again (4 acres veggies, raspberries, strawberries, and 27 acres hay), converting an old trailer into a greenhouse, and fixing up the guest cabins.
Anyone interested in fishing, canoeing, hangliding, boating, permaculture, building or farming will love it here. I have a boat to go down the river to the ocean or hotsprings. I have also opened a design company building furniture and interiors with my CNC mill and plasma cutters. Eager for helpers with web design, engineering, CAD, interior or furniture design skills. I am looking for people for longer stays who are...

This is a great opportunity for a positive, enthusiastic, honest and hard-working individual with a good work ethic who prefers a friendly community/family atmosphere.
I have a four bedroom home in midtown Anchorage in need of small amounts of upkeep and maintenance, along with some ambitious projects. During your stay, you would have your own room and share a bathroom. The common areas (kitchen, family room, living room, laundry room, etc) are communal.
My ideal helper requires nominal supervision and is an independent self-starter who believes in quality work and will follow a project through from beginning to end.
My projects are as follows:
Interior projects include installing trim and other minor interior home improvement tasks.
I have three major outdoor carpentry projects: a shed and greenhouse for the backyard (currently covered in snow, as pictured) and a small footbridge I would like built for the front yard's fountain/garden that is pictured in my listing.

We are a remote, off-grid homesteading school in the Alaskan bush. Access is by float plane during the summer. We would like adventuresome souls to help out with the vegetable garden, firewood, the log cabin we're building, and other daily homestead chores. If you are a woman and/or enjoy cooking on a woodburning stove (or if you would like to learn), your help will be appreciated in the kitchen. We have two children, but you are not expected to assist with child care. You may attend classes between chores, and we will provide lodging and meals.
During your free time, there is plenty of wilderness for you to explore, so bring comfortable boots. On clear days, the lake near our cabin offers a beautiful view of Mt. McKinley, whether from a canoe or from the shore. You might enjoy a hike to the river for a day of salmon fishing and wildlife viewing. If you plan to fish, be sure to get a license before your visit. You will be responsible for your transportation to and from our homes...

Experience the coastal Alaskan bush in style. Unplug from the maddness of an overcrowded world and enjoy watching bald eagles, wild mountain goats, seals, sea lions, sea birds, and maybe even an occassional bear (although they are very shy). Our off-the-grid, hydro-electric powered lodge and home is looking for volunteers for the upcoming summer to help with indoor and outdoor chores. We are running a full-service wilderness lodge at one location and building a seaside wharf and house at another location 3 miles from the lodge. Everything is built by hand with no heavy machinery so volunteers need to be physically fit and have some experience with tools. At the lodge we need help with kitchen duties, hauling and stacking firewood, gardening, cleaning, building, painting, and renovations. We can house 4 volunteers at any given time and the lodge takes no more than 8 guests at any given time so it is quiet and peaceful with opportunities to learn new skills, work in a wilderness locat...

Private home, remote south east Alaska. Duties would include house work, probably about 1 hr. per day, and projects around the house. I need to build one more log bed for the last room, helping get firewood, ect. I try to do one project per day before goofing off. Hours would not exceed 4 per day in exchange I will provide a private bedroom, and meals. I am disabled from a back injury so I dont work at a very fast pace. The rest of my time is usually spent out on the boat, fishing, crabbing, shrimping, or just sight seeing. I would like to learn Spanish or Thai as well as new cooking recipes and an overall exchange of culture.
