permaculture/gardening apprentice:

Gardening here is totally, organic, involving much soil preparation, mound building, planting, feeding, weeding, mulching & harvesting of plants. It worked great for us to have more than one apprentice sharing the work. The main garden is well over an acre, another half acre garden on our Beaver House property & we also have 2 forest gardens in their beginning years which still need to have much planted up. Garden people should know the difference between, say, basil & coriander, & how to use a shovel. At least. As for overall oversight, design & planning of the garden, & tasks such as tree planting, grafting, propagation, seed saving, catchment & pond construction, setting up a permaculture resource library & reading area, desing & creation of the "town square" lot. There are also dairy goats, chickens & ducks which require daily attention. Ideally apprentices have taken some version of a permaculture design course, but it is not required. Should be able to begin by April & stay thru Oct harvest, canning & food preserving. Food & Lodging is $100/month for 20-30 hours a week help, & if capable of doing more the price can be negotiated.

construction apprentice

With this apprenticeship, one learns how to renovate, repair, & co-design new construction using recycled & available materials. Projects include finishing the straw bale hut; glazing, solarizing, wiring & insulation, drywalling & site design at our Mansion house property (which suffered a fire & requires complete remodeling). We also need several more greenhouses in various locations & our school building has several rooms in need of plastering & remodeling. Some experience with power tool & basic construction skills necessary & it would help to have your own basic tools. We would like at least 6 month commitment if not more. Food & Lodging is $100/month for 20-30 hours a week help, & if capable of doing more the price can be negotiated.

WHERE ELSE CAN YOU LEARN HOW TO MILK A GOAT & PRODUCE AVANT LIT AT THE SAME TIME?
