We have been fully vaccinated and will welcome helpers who have also been fully vaccinated. My niece and I have a scenic country home on two acres with spectacular views of rolling hills. There are excellent hiking and biking trails nearby, and beaches of Lake Simcoe are only 20 minutes away by car, one hour by bike. We will be happy to drive you there. 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. On your days off, we will gladly take you to Newmarket to catch the train/bus to Toronto. We can do the cooking but are happy to share the cooking, and will welcome any specialties you may have. We do not cook vegan or gluten free. If you are vegan or gluten free, then you should probably look for a different host.

My name is Victor and I have been teaching English to young people from my community for 8 years. I have a small school in downtown Tehuantepec near the market, banks, restaurants, and the tropical forest full of coconuts, bananas, and mangoes. Tehuantepec is located 20 minutes from the ocean beach community, Salina Cruz. I am located only a five minutes taxi ride from the local bus station. I am looking for one person at a time to come and work with my students, which includes conversing with my students and teaching if you are able to. My students need more practice talking to people who speak fluent and clear english. I ask for five or six hours a day working with my students and in return I offer a place for you to sleep and one meal a day and a tour around the city to show you my local culture. You can stay for a minimum one week and a maximum of two weeks, but we can make a deal if it works out and you want to stay longer I have lived here all my life and can introduce you...

This is a retreat for the mind, body and spirit. Located in the beautiful Smoky Mountains of Western North Carolina and surrounded by national forests and great tourist sites. Currently we have retreats for guests that include meditation, self enhancement workshops, Labyrinth walks, healing sessions and contemplative living workshops. We also provide tours, hikes and outdoor adventure. I teach classes and do life coaching. This is a very touristy area and especially in the fall with the leaves changing colors!

We welcome 1-2 helpxers anytime. Chores include firewood gathering, gardening, harvesting, cooking, cleaning as well as helping Tim with whatever he is up to in regard to construction, lumber organization or working on the water. The island: Haida Gwaii in the fall & winter doesn't get as cold as other parts of British Columbia, and we often have a lot of mild, beautiful sunny days. November is generally our storm season, but that is also when our surfing picks up, so if you're looking to hit the waves on your time off, fall is the time to come :) Summers are generally mild. The ocean is just a few feet from our front door, so you can often find Marg having morning coffee on the beach or enjoying our beautiful sunsets at the end of the day. We have a recreational forest/beach trail in front of our property. This is a lovely, safe convenient trail for anytime one wants to stretch their legs and take in nature.

Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about us. We are a young family with an 8 year old boy and 10 year old daughter and a small but competitive dog sled and skijoring team. Our property is located on the Annie Lake Road, in the heart of prime dog mushing territory. We are currently looking for a dog handler(s) and helper who would be able to start anytime. Responsibilities include giving excellent care and attention to the sled dogs, as well as odd jobs around the property, and some childcare. Lovely accommodation is provided, as well as many other bonuses. This position would be ideal for a couple or a pair of friends or a single person, ideally someone who has their own vehicle. We would prefer a longer term commitment because there is a lot to learn and you would be working on your own much of the time. Please message us with any questions you have. We look forward to hearing from you!

Hello folks, I won't need a new help until spring of 2026. Pleaae wait until March of 2026 as I will know what I need by then. Thank you, I look forward to changing this first sentence when I am ready for more help. (if I need a week or two of help ahead of spring, I will let folks know) I prefer someone who can cook and has some domestic skills as there's always lots of work around the house and garden. I live in Gibsons on the Sunshine Coast in B.C. Canada. The view from our property is spectacular; the ocean, mountains, and islands are magical. You can rent a kayak and explore the islands nearby. I live in an area with many artists, writers, and cultural events. The hiking is diverse, featuring waterfalls, lakes, creeks, and numerous quiet beaches ideal for swimming. It's a great location if you love nature, hiking, cycling, swimming, kayaking, and attending outdoor concerts or the Writer's Festival. I need a helper to assist with household tasks.

Welcome to our peaceful goat farm and homestead in the beautiful Central Coast of California! We're a semi-retired couple with 20+ years of experience living off the land. Our 6-acre farm is home to dairy goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, turkeys, bees, and gardens. We do everything from milking goats and making cheese to processing lamb and poultry, fermenting vegetables, baking sourdough, and even teaching quilting and rug weaving. We host ONE helper at a time to provide a personal and immersive experience. You’ll stay in a cozy, private trailer next to the house and share the guest bathroom. We cook and eat three healthy, mostly organic meals together every day using food we raise or organically source. Our lifestyle is omnivorous, mostly gluten free and we do not host vegans, vegetarians, or dairy-free guests—you’d miss out on too much! We ask for help with daily chores like milking, feeding, cleaning pens, gardening, and kitchen work. Afternoons are usually free, and in your downtim...

Upcycling, landscaping, building, ecological projects and more inside/outside near Montebello, Québec Bonjour! Ici Andre et Daniel. Seventeen years ago, we bought an old reception hall that used to be part of a vacation resort. It was originally a piano-bar when it was first built in 1982. The past seventeen years of our lives has involved a lot of work turning this 2500 sq ft (225 m²) commercial building into our home and our future life project. We haven't quite figured out the life project part yet, but that was the point of us taking a "semi-retired" sabbatical to let it unfold...naturally! As former urban landscapers, we are stoked by the challenge of greening up a larger space, 5 acres (2 ha) in all with a pure water stream, pond and waterfall. As couchsurfing hosts, we got used to the idea of having company over. When we discovered helpx, the bonus for us w...

Nestled in the coastal range of Mendocino County, California (about 45 minutes Northwest of Ukiah) we are establishing a small farm and wildlife sanctuary. Based on principles of sustainability & permaculture our expanding ridge top garden and orchards consist of a variety of fruits, veggies, herbs and flowers. Aside from garden and orchard tasks additional projects may include gathering seaweed and other native wild foods, cooking, canning, fermenting foods, making herbal preparations, habitat restoration, brush and trail clearing, small scale green building and learning how to build and maintain an off-grid infrastructure and solar system. Please read all of our information before contacting us. We require a one month minimum stay. Our homestead is remote and therefore not for everyone. We prefer those who want to unplug and enjoy the serenity of a mountain forest. If you are open minded, physically fit, want to get your hands dirty and love to be outdoors you will love it her...

Welcome! Our family owned and operated certified organic livestock farm in North Central British Columbia is excited to have you stay and become a part of everything we have going on. We’ve been operating since 2008, primarily raising Berkshire pigs, Dexter cattle, Katahdin sheep, laying hens, broiler chickens and of course bronze breasted turkeys for thanksgiving and Christmas. On top of that, we’re home to two Labrador retrievers (Ned and Nelly), 3 outdoor cats, 2 guard alpacas and a family of Muscovy ducks. In other words, you will never find yourself not in the company of animals! Aside from livestock, we have recently built a small farm store / café that cooks the meat raised on the farm. We also take pride in creating all recipes from scratch, from the sauces to the buns of the burgers. Currently only operating during the summer months, 3 days per week. It’s been a lot of work, but a great way to get more people out to the farm, eating good food and connecting with the community...

I like meeting people, and especially travellers that are passionate about agriculture and country living.

One thing I can advise helpers who want to get a placement with any host is to have at least one PICTURE of YOURSELF. Just as you like to "see" who and where you are coming, hosts like to see who they are opening their home to. It's almost winter now, so we won't be working outside. I need someone right away to help with small handyman jobs or selling online eg: eBay, marketplace etc. Knowledge of Carpentry and Plumbing are always appreciated. Car mechanics are always helpful. I would really appreciate someone who can do handyman jobs and wants to come for a week or two. I sell things online and on eBay and would love someone who is good at writing descriptions in English. I have a large house and property in a diverse area of Staten Island, New York that I`m always working on. I plant a vegetable garden in the spring using the square foot gardening method.

[Update posted 08/01/25] The Crossing announces a change, a seed planted four years ago. For the past four years, the land belongs, as is fair and good, to a Tribal University and Land Grant University located on the Rosebud Reservation, home of the Sicangu Oyate, in South Dakota. Our donation of the property was formally accepted by Sinte Gleska University during September of 2020. Since then, the seed has sprouted and pushed roots of beginnings down into the soil and the sprout and it's cotyledons have come out into the sun. Last August, with an amazing gathering here of a group of people from The University, inipis (sweat lodge, in Lakota) were poured and prayers sent up to Creator, and the transition from private ownership to the establishment of Sinte Gleska University's welcomed and growing presence is forever engaged – the first true leaf has opened to the sunlight. Helen and I will share more about the future of The Crossing and the direction by Sinte Gleska University when ...

Things have changed alot in the last few years as we sold our cattle herd in 2018. My husband retired from his Drilling job up north for 46 years, after 3 heart attacks, a shoulder repair and a major hip replacement, and a knee surgery coming up shortly. I don't work at the local bank anymore. We do however have alot going on and are still on the farm. Now that the pandemic is over, we are welcoming travellers again. We are usually looking for a responsible person to help look after pets, and horses, and helping with garden in spring, produce or yard maintenance. Baking is my hobby, now that I am not working in the office anymore, and attending Market fests in surrounding towns. We live on our farm with 5 horses. We've had to sell our big herd of cattle, in 2018, due to health problems, which forced us to sell and semi-retire, and we sold some of the farm land and rent out the rest. In summer we make hay for the horses, but we do it ourselves because volunteers don’t have experi...

Namaste! Thank you for stopping by. :-) I hope you will join me on my journey for a month, 2 months, or long-term. I have a pair of picturesque, riverfront hobby farms, each with a large 4-bedroom house. I am transitioning the farms to more of a communal space. There are three acres of wild blueberries that I am currently converingt to organic production, six acres of pasture, and about eight acres of woods that provide more than enough firewood to heat both homes without having to clear-cut any areas. I have a small herd of alpacas and an even smaller flock of chickens, whom I allow to free range. We harvest a small portion of our food from the property, and my vision is to increase that slowly and steadily every year. For a long-term (and possibly lifetime) stay, I would particularly interested in these 3 individuals: 1. Someone to manage the livestock, including monthly shots for the alpacas 2. Someone to process and market the alpaca fibre 3. Someone to manage the little antiq...

Thank you for taking the time to read a little bit about us. We are a young family with an 8 year old boy and 10 year old daughter and a small but competitive dog sled and skijoring team. Our property is located on the Annie Lake Road, in the heart of prime dog mushing territory. We are currently looking for a dog handler(s) and helper who would be able to start anytime. Responsibilities include giving excellent care and attention to the sled dogs, as well as odd jobs around the property, and some childcare. Lovely accommodation is provided, as well as many other bonuses. This position would be ideal for a couple or a pair of friends or a single person, ideally someone who has their own vehicle. We would prefer a longer term commitment because there is a lot to learn and you would be working on your own much of the time. Please message us with any questions you have. We look forward to hearing from you!

Limited gardening, yard work, helping around the B&B with all aspects of running a home-based business. Must be physically fit to do this.

Welcome to our peaceful goat farm and homestead in the beautiful Central Coast of California! We're a semi-retired couple with 20+ years of experience living off the land. Our 6-acre farm is home to dairy goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, turkeys, bees, and gardens. We do everything from milking goats and making cheese to processing lamb and poultry, fermenting vegetables, baking sourdough, and even teaching quilting and rug weaving. We host ONE helper at a time to provide a personal and immersive experience. You’ll stay in a cozy, private trailer next to the house and share the guest bathroom. We cook and eat three healthy, mostly organic meals together every day using food we raise or organically source. Our lifestyle is omnivorous, mostly gluten free and we do not host vegans, vegetarians, or dairy-free guests—you’d miss out on too much! We ask for help with daily chores like milking, feeding, cleaning pens, gardening, and kitchen work. Afternoons are usually free, and in your downtim...

NOTE: Hey! We are back hosting after a long pandemic break. Got skills we can use? Apply for a stay now. It's prime time! Upcycling, landscaping, building, ecological projects and more inside/outside near Montebello, Québec Bonjour! Ici Andre et Daniel. Seventeen years ago, we bought an old reception hall that used to be part of a vacation resort. It was originally a piano-bar when it was first built in 1982. The past seventeen years of our lives has involved a lot of work turning this 2500 sq ft (225 m²) commercial building into our home and our future life project. We haven't quite figured out the life project part yet, but that was the point of us taking a "semi-retired" sabbatical to let it unfold...naturally! As former urban landscapers, we are stoked by the challenge of greening up a larger space, 5 acres (2 ha) in all with a pure water stream, pond and waterfall. As couchsurfing hosts, we got used to the idea of having company over. When we discovered helpx, the bonus for us w...

Our special Yellow Deli is a destination for many different guests and travelers in the Great Northern Catskills Mountains of Greene County, New York. We run our deli in the tiny town of Oak Hill, New York. The Yellow Deli is built with reclaimed rustic barn wood and other recycled materials.

We enjoy having guests and volunteers who want to get to know us by living and working with us. We gather together every morning and evening to express whatever is on our hearts, to sing and dance, and to give thanks to our Creator before sitting down at the table to share our meals together. Love is our home. You are welcome to come and see......

Nestled in the coastal range of Mendocino County, California (about 45 minutes Northwest of Ukiah) we are establishing a small farm and wildlife sanctuary. Based on principles of sustainability & permaculture our expanding ridge top garden and orchards consist of a variety of fruits, veggies, herbs and flowers. Aside from garden and orchard tasks additional projects may include gathering seaweed and other native wild foods, cooking, canning, fermenting foods, making herbal preparations, habitat restoration, brush and trail clearing, small scale green building and learning how to build and maintain an off-grid infrastructure and solar system. Please read all of our information before contacting us. We require a one month minimum stay. Our homestead is remote and therefore not for everyone. We prefer those who want to unplug and enjoy the serenity of a mountain forest. If you are open minded, physically fit, want to get your hands dirty and love to be outdoors you will love it her...

Welcome! Our family owned and operated certified organic livestock farm in North Central British Columbia is excited to have you stay and become a part of everything we have going on. We’ve been operating since 2008, primarily raising Berkshire pigs, Dexter cattle, Katahdin sheep, laying hens, broiler chickens and of course bronze breasted turkeys for thanksgiving and Christmas. On top of that, we’re home to two Labrador retrievers (Ned and Nelly), 3 outdoor cats, 2 guard alpacas and a family of Muscovy ducks. In other words, you will never find yourself not in the company of animals! Aside from livestock, we have recently built a small farm store / café that cooks the meat raised on the farm. We also take pride in creating all recipes from scratch, from the sauces to the buns of the burgers. Currently only operating during the summer months, 3 days per week. It’s been a lot of work, but a great way to get more people out to the farm, eating good food and connecting with the community...

One thing I can advise helpers who want to get a placement with any host is to have at least one PICTURE of YOURSELF. Just as you like to "see" who and where you are coming, hosts like to see who they are opening their home to. It's almost winter now, so we won't be working outside. I need someone right away to help with small handyman jobs or selling online eg: eBay, marketplace etc. Knowledge of Carpentry and Plumbing are always appreciated. Car mechanics are always helpful.

[Update posted 08/01/25] The Crossing announces a change, a seed planted four years ago. For the past four years, the land belongs, as is fair and good, to a Tribal University and Land Grant University located on the Rosebud Reservation, home of the Sicangu Oyate, in South Dakota. Our donation of the property was formally accepted by Sinte Gleska University during September of 2020. Since then, the seed has sprouted and pushed roots of beginnings down into the soil and the sprout and it's cotyledons have come out into the sun. Last August, with an amazing gathering here of a group of people from The University, inipis (sweat lodge, in Lakota) were poured and prayers sent up to Creator, and the transition from private ownership to the establishment of Sinte Gleska University's welcomed and growing presence is forever engaged – the first true leaf has opened to the sunlight.

Things have changed alot in the last few years as we sold our cattle herd in 2018. My husband retired from his Drilling job up north for 46 years, after 3 heart attacks, a shoulder repair and a major hip replacement, and a knee surgery coming up shortly. I don't work at the local bank anymore. We do however have alot going on and are still on the farm. Now that the pandemic is over, we are welcoming travellers again. We are usually looking for a responsible person to help look after pets, and horses, and helping with garden in spring, produce or yard maintenance. Baking is my hobby, now that I am not working in the office anymore, and attending Market fests in surrounding towns. We live on our farm with 5 horses. We've had to sell our big herd of cattle, in 2018, due to health problems, which forced us to sell and semi-retire, and we sold some of the farm land and rent out the rest. In summer we make hay for the horses, but we do it ourselves because volunteers don’t have experi...

Namaste! Thank you for stopping by. :-) I hope you will join me on my journey for a month, 2 months, or long-term. I have a pair of picturesque, riverfront hobby farms, each with a large 4-bedroom house. I am transitioning the farms to more of a communal space. There are three acres of wild blueberries that I am currently converingt to organic production, six acres of pasture, and about eight acres of woods that provide more than enough firewood to heat both homes without having to clear-cut any areas. I have a small herd of alpacas and an even smaller flock of chickens, whom I allow to free range. We harvest a small portion of our food from the property, and my vision is to increase that slowly and steadily every year. For a long-term (and possibly lifetime) stay, I would particularly interested in these 3 individuals: 1. Someone to manage the livestock, including monthly shots for the alpacas 2. Someone to process and market the alpaca fibre 3. Someone to manage the little antiq...
