This form does not yet contain any fields.

    We are excited to host individuals, couples, and occasionally families for apprenticeships at our farm.

    Since 2010, there have been dozens of people from all over the world who have journeyed all the way to Alaska to work and live with us.

     

    Over the years, we have continually refined our application process to be able to select those who will fit in best with our farm and family.

    If you think you would like to embark on travel that will change the course of your life, please use our contact form to inquire about our what to expect document and current openings.

    At this time we only take applicants for a three month minimum stay, while our longest resident was here with us for 18 months.  

     

    Please spread the word, we are always looking for committed volunteers.

     

     

    *You will learn to milk goats, care for free ranging livestock, grow fodder, and a hundred other things that are required for living and farming sustainably off road/off grid in Alaska.

    **Accomodations are in a rustic, dry cabin with an outhouse, plus share excellent meals with our family!
