Looking for enthusiastic, young (at heart) people to help me make my homestead more sustainable. Property consists of 23 secluded acres of woods and fields bordered by a river, situated outside a small town in Appalachia. I have a large organic garden, honey bees, chickens, a horse and 4 cats. Accommodations are a private room in Civil War era farmhouse. I need help with everything related to running a small, non-commercial farm.

Learning opportunities abound for anyone interested in heating with wood, including maintaining wood stoves; maximizing food production; rainwater collection; animal care; basic building and maintenance; and fence installation.

I welcome anyone who would like to escape to the country, but still have access to amenities 5 miles away. I would expect a few hours of work a day, leaving you plenty of time to enjoy the area. Food arrangements would have to be worked out on an individual basis. I have two sons, 9 and 12, but otherwise it is very qu... more inside

The mission of this place is to teach people how to be healthy through good nutrition, exercise, relationships, and a healthy lifestyle. We also provide healthy food for our customers and show them how to prepare it. We have a large garden and small CSA, we make maple syrup, we grow corn, soybeans, wheat, spelt and hay and we raise chickens for eggs, and grass-fed beef. We mill the wheat into flour and corn into cornmeal. We have a sawmill and make our own lumber. We have lots of events including maple sugaring open house, mushroom hunts, and fall festivals. We do other special events including hayrides, retreats, and weddings. We are currently building a cabin/barn at our lake using only lumber that we mill from our own trees. We need help for this project. In June 2013 we will host a 5-day health retreat. We love to have volunteers and some resist leaving because of the atmosphere. Send us an email. Hope to hear from you.

Looking for help with maple sugaring today.

Beehives are in production with of an acre in perennials and annuals to be distributed in a small CSA in North Canton, Ohio.
