individuals, please contact Margaret for further details!

October and/or November.  If that is not possible a 
minimum of 3 weeks works best for all.

Full days of seasonal garden work (mulching, late season 
harvest, weeding, tool cleaning, garden inventory, etc) 
or shop work (stacking lumber, loading kilns, etc.) 
in exchange for rustic woodscamp lodging, organic 
food from the gardens, and minimal weekly stipend.

Windhorse Farm promotes a contemplative lifestyle.
