NEEDS Flower beds Vegetable garden help for our onsite organic farmer Electric fencing using electric rope, like Electrobraid Fencepost placements Gate maintenance Manure management - composting picked up manure and dragging pastures Hosting preparation and cleanup for Hipcamp sites before and after rental periods Chainsaw clearing of fallen trees on trails And that is just parts of it! Clearly one person is not enough to keep up with it all, so many competent and energetic people are needed. We prefer volunteers who can learn to recognize needs and assist, rather than us having to accompany them to get everything done - we will provide orientation to where to find tools and will expect tools to end up back in the same place they are found. Experience preferred: Will train, and will appreciate people who bring experience and ambition to be part of a growing community of acceptance and support in an increasingly hostile and confusing world. Be part of the solution.
