Our 6 generation family Homestead is located 20 minutes south of Calgary. We live on 126 acres in the Alberta foothills. We own and operate a Disc Golf Course so help would include work on the course doing course maintenance such as mowing, tree clearing, cleaning porta pottie, and assisting with tournaments and events. On the land we need lots of help with fence repair which includes tree clearing by hand and chainsaw. We have a few cattle and need to rebuild the corrals. We have a large yard with greenhouse and garden. We look forward to having someone who would love to spend time learning about growing and harvesting a vegetable garden. As well as pruning, digging, weeding and staining. Our kitchen is always busy with harvesting from the garden, yard or fields; dehydrating, fermenting, canning, freezing, making herbal honey, tinctures and more. Indoors there is cleaning, sorting and organizing. I am a professional health coach so our daily life is using complimentary healt...

A Long term exchange is available. Nearly everything we do is in support of one thrill: adventures in food. But rural living out here in mid-nowhere means that there are endless other things to be tasked as well: construction, gardening, maintenance of many sorts, enhancing the natural beauty around us. Chances are that if you could describe a pure-fun, physical job, there would be something here I could offer that might satisfy those urges. If you want to work hard, eat marvelous meals and have a fabulous time in the gardens, the workshop and the kitchen, come join us and get a relaxing feel of rural life. We are foodies far from the centres and trying to help create a culture of great food around us: for ourselves and for our friends. We are also trying to make that happen as much as is possible using local foods, neighbour's offerings, and our own produce. That is where we hope you will assist us, working with me in the gardens and workshop and, if you want, bringing your creativi...

Would you like to come and help us out? At the moment, we would be looking for mature (preferably 25 and over) helpers for the months of May and June, 2024. We are a cozy, charming and comfortable oceanfront Guest House, with 5 guest bedrooms, overlooking a scenic bay in our tiny community (250 residents) called Sandspit, or K'il Kun, on Haida Gwaii, a remote archipelago on the northern coast of BC. Helpers will have a private room, all meals catered for, and communal dinners. Bikes are available for exploration of the surroundings, and we can usually take helpers out on local adventures (boating, fishing, camping, hiking, etc.) Work is usually general help for day to day operation of the Guesthouse during the summer Season, June to September (cleaning, gardening, etc.), and general maintenance, construction etc. during the shoulder and off-season. In the summer some tasks can be somewhat scheduled (cleaning on busy days) but otherwise, helpers are usually in charge of their own s...

Galiano Grow House has been operating as a farm for coming up on 3 years now. We have had over a dozen volunteers from all over the world come and visit in the last year alone. In general it has been a wonderful experience and we are keen to have more volunteers on the property. We are currently a vegetable, Cannabis and Hemp farm, with future plans to expand more. Our Canna Tourism BNB was open last year with great success and we have expanded it for this up coming year. We currently have 3 full time staff on the property expanding the farm and running the operations. We always need help with general gardening and also Cannabis specific work. I personally have been involved in over 100 Cannabis facilities designs in the country and always happy to help and teach people the skills required for their large facility or home grow. We also have access to a team of industry professionals who help us and guide staff and volunteers in learning the skills required. Please don't be s...

We are a Cage-free Cottage Dog Lifestyle Pet Resort near Huntsville in the heart of Muskoka. We are just 15 minutes from Arrowhead Provincial Park and a 45-minute drive from world-renowned Algonquin Provincial Park, where you might want to hike trails, check their visitor centre, wolf howls, and maybe try outdoor camping or a canoe trip from almost our backyard. Muskoka is one of Canada's top Cottage capitals, with over 1,000 pristine lakes. Our property has many ponds and is located in the spring-fed kettle lakes hills that supply fresh water to Lake of Bays. Just steps away are four small lakes with blue heron rookeries, where moose, whitetail deer and other wildlife come for a drink. Those who love watching wildlife in their natural habitat will love our beautiful woodlands and lakes. As will those who enjoy fishing or bird watching. There are lots of hiking trails and beaches you can walk, swim at and enjoy. We have bikes, and it is just 6km from Huntsville, where you can find in...

We grow organic table grapes, a few fruit trees, chickens and a few pigs. This is a real farm experience, mostly working in the vineyard, with some fun too. There is biking to town, swimming in the ocean or our lake, fishing, basketball, volleyball, hiking, nature walks, beach strolling and look for fossils at Blue Beach, camp fires , rope swing in our little lake, take in the fantastic views, sunsets, star gazing, internet, tv, phone and go to nearby towns such as Wolfville and Hantsport as well as the rest of the Annapolis Valley with the local bus. The accommodations and kitchen are separate for helpers cooking with an abundance of food. This is a more independent farm stay. Hope you can make it here.

We have an beautiful small farm in the Birken valley, near Pemberton surrounded by mountains, rivers , waterfalls,and lakes. We farm garlic, flowers, herbs, berries, fruit trees, chickens and of course some veggies too. We have a cute, rustic, clean little cabin on the property with it's own bathhouse . Wonderful fresh meals... We are only 45mins north of Whistler (3hrs from Vancouver). There is great hiking in the close area. Your own transportation is helpful but not necessary as there is no public transportation. Odd jobs around the farm include small construction projects, planting, weeding, picking fruit, mulching, feeding chickens, helping with the farmer's markets, etc ... Whatever your skills and interests are we can find a project for you. One - three week stays, all meals included, four-five hours of work a day expected, usually with afternoons free for your leisure. Couples welcome.

(La description en français se trouve plus bas !) We are a small Buddhist community living in the forest close to Sainte-Julienne, Quebec. We have an organic fruit tree nursery, along with many other projects on our land: several fruit orchards, chickens and bees, growing our own vegetables and herbs and trying to be independent in many ways. The six people who are staying are: Ajan, Eric, Veronique, Elisabeth, Natalie and Camille. Each of us have arrived here one by one, at first just interested in helping out in the place, and then as we found that this lifestyle was for us, deciding to stay for longer. For part of the year we also have a couple of employees staying with us. There is also a wonderful dog named Dali. Our organic nursery and garden occupies a land of 9 hectares, surrounded by forest. As well as the main land of the nursery, we have another smaller land where a few of us live. This is, in fact, where the community started to grow from very small beginnings in the ear...

Share with me living a rustic wilderness life away from the digital speed of today, share some adventures and sometimes crazy or challenging activities.

We are working on the next 25yr Vision and with this are building a very large public art installation project (earthen/cob Dragon sculpture with lots of mosaic work!). Folks love to be with the land, work in transformational personal journey work as we weave ourselves into the Collective, work with research teams on soil/wastewater/energy systems design/etc, and permaculture education projects with learners from local to global! Creating a mutually supportive 'attitude of gratitude' is what makes for an amazing Volunteer season and we have folks who return year after year.

March/ April season 2024 ** Wow, exploring right outside our backdoor along side the Campbell River on Vancouver Island, is a beautiful place to experience Vancouver Island`s great outdoors!!! Although we live on a one acre town lot, our back yard is situated on a cliff over looking an accessible beautiful heritage river, with a nature park setting of ferns, douglas firs, maples and alder trees. You can often see deer, raccoons, bears and the silver backs of salmon and steelhead fish jumping in the ebb and flow of the river’s pools. We have trail access to the river below, where you can enjoy listening to the sing song of many birds, tubing down the river/swimming in the heat of the summer, and trying your hand at casting for steelhead fish. As well,our neighborhood is the access point to many scenic nature hiking/ walking and biking trails. The ocean photo was taken a couple of miles from my home and all other photos are of my house area or looking downwards at the river which is acc...

Our family farm is located in one of the most beautiful countrysides in the interior of BC. Surrounded by gorgeous mountain ranges, lakes and rivers, we consider ourselves and our animals to be spoiled rotten. Our 13+ acre farm is located 5 minutes from the town center, 5 minutes from the beautiful Clearwater River, and less than 10 minutes away from Dutch Lake (perfect sandy beach for swimming). Canoeing, kayaking or hiking in the world renowned Wells Gray Park is a great way to spend days off. Our ranch has horses, pigs, chickens, ducks, turkeys, and 4 working dogs. Looking for a person(s) to help with our farm chores as well as gardening and very keen on someone who can help with a few construction projects. May to October we are looking for 1 or 2 folks to join our farm. In the summer we grow our own garden as we believe in growing our own food and preserving whatever we can.

We're located in the Beaver Valley, which is a beautiful, natural and very wild piece of the Niagara Escarpment. Come join the fun!

A Long term exchange is available. Nearly everything we do is in support of one thrill: adventures in food. But rural living out here in mid-nowhere means that there are endless other things to be tasked as well: construction, gardening, maintenance of many sorts, enhancing the natural beauty around us. Chances are that if you could describe a pure-fun, physical job, there would be something here I could offer that might satisfy those urges. If you want to work hard, eat marvelous meals and have a fabulous time in the gardens, the workshop and the kitchen, come join us and get a relaxing feel of rural life. We are foodies far from the centres and trying to help create a culture of great food around us: for ourselves and for our friends. We are also trying to make that happen as much as is possible using local foods, neighbour's offerings, and our own produce. That is where we hope you will assist us, working with me in the gardens and workshop and, if you want, bringing your creativi...

We farm garlic, flowers, herbs, berries, fruit trees, chickens and of course some veggies too. We have a cute, rustic, clean little cabin on the property with it's own bathhouse . Wonderful fresh meals... We are only 45mins north of Whistler (3hrs from Vancouver). There is great hiking in the close area. Your own transportation is helpful but not necessary as there is no public transportation. Odd jobs around the farm include small construction projects, planting, weeding, picking fruit, mulching, feeding chickens, helping with the farmer's markets, etc ... Whatever your skills and interests are we can find a project for you. One - three week stays, all meals included, four-five hours of work a day expected, usually with afternoons free for your leisure. Couples welcome.

We have an organic fruit tree nursery, along with many other projects on our land: several fruit orchards, chickens and bees, growing our own vegetables and herbs and trying to be independent in many ways. The six people who are staying are: Ajan, Eric, Veronique, Elisabeth, Natalie and Camille. Each of us have arrived here one by one, at first just interested in helping out in the place, and then as we found that this lifestyle was for us, deciding to stay for longer. For part of the year we also have a couple of employees staying with us. There is also a wonderful dog named Dali. Our organic nursery and garden occupies a land of 9 hectares, surrounded by forest. As well as the main land of the nursery, we have another smaller land where a few of us live. This is, in fact, where the community started to grow from very small beginnings in the ear...

We are working on the next 25yr Vision and with this are building a very large public art installation project (earthen/cob Dragon sculpture with lots of mosaic work!). Folks love to be with the land, work in transformational personal journey work as we weave ourselves into the Collective, work with research teams on soil/wastewater/energy systems design/etc, and permaculture education projects with learners from local to global! Creating a mutually supportive 'attitude of gratitude' is what makes for an amazing Volunteer season and we have folks who return year after year. Maturity to live/work with a team is a major asset - and/or the willingness to learn and put oneself in as a team player makes for an outstanding experience while you are within OUR Volunteer Program. You will me...

Two bicycles and high speed WiFi is available. We have two dogs and two cats. We are located one hour north of Toronto - accessible by Go Transit to Newmarket, where we will pick you up.

We are currently accepting helpers for 2024. At this time of year we have lots of repair, building, animal husbandry, food production and gardening projects on the go. Depending on timing there may be opportunities to participate in animal butchering, sausage making, cheese making and more.

We practice regenerative agriculture and apply permaculture principles wherever possible.

Although we live on a one acre town lot, our back yard is situated on a cliff over looking an accessible beautiful heritage river, with a nature park setting of ferns, douglas firs, maples and alder trees. You can often see deer, raccoons, bears and the silver backs of salmon and steelhead fish jumping in the ebb and flow of the river’s pools. We have trail access to the river below, where you can enjoy listening to the sing song of many birds, tubing down the river/swimming in the heat of the summer, and trying your hand at casting for steelhead fish. As well,our neighborhood is the access point to many scenic nature hiking/ walking and biking trails.

Our family farm is located in one of the most beautiful countrysides in the interior of BC. Surrounded by gorgeous mountain ranges, lakes and rivers, we consider ourselves and our animals to be spoiled rotten. Our 13+ acre farm is located 5 minutes from the town center, 5 minutes from the beautiful Clearwater River, and less than 10 minutes away from Dutch Lake (perfect sandy beach for swimming). Canoeing, kayaking or hiking in the world renowned Wells Gray Park is a great way to spend days off. Our ranch has horses, pigs, chickens, ducks, turkeys, and 4 working dogs. Looking for a person(s) to help with our farm chores as well as gardening and very keen on someone who can help with a few construction projects. May to October we are looking for 1 or 2 folks to join our farm. In the summer we grow our own garden as we believe in growing our own food and preserving whatever we can.
