Das Erlebnis

We are looking for enthusiastic volunteers to share the workload and rewards of life in our peculiar little corner of the world. Five cats, one rambunctious sheep, and an adorable chicken need lots of care. From feeding, cleaning, and dedicated playtimes, your help will make our lives run smoother. Work will be sunrise (5:30 or 6am) to 12pm on Monday to Thursday. Your contributions in our vegetable garden will help us live more with the land too.

Programmdetails

Our values are based on anarchist, horizontal community. We reject any hierarchical and oppressive system, including those based on class, gender, sexuality, (dis)ability, race, religion, or lifestyle. We draw lots of inspiration from the Zapatista movement in Chiapas, MX. Just as these indigenous communities adapt and transform to their evolving needs, we strive to live in alignment with our ever-developing understanding of liberation and healing. What does this look like for us right now?
** Reducing our dependence on money by building relationships and by learning skills that increase our autonomy
** Making decisions based on minimizing harm and exploitation of environment and others, often at the expense of our convenience and comfort
** Questioning how many resources we really need to live a good life and exploring ways to live with less
** Rising up to the challenge of conflict resolution, knowing that we will grow closer to the other person and understand ourselves more profoundly

We are excited to host volunteers who are also on this journey of healing and re-learning to care for each other and our planet. There's much we can learn from one another and contribute to each other's lives. Andrew is an artisan, sourdough baker with lots of experience in education and counseling. If you want to add vegan cooking (with a focus on whole food, plant-based) to your skillset, you'll be in the right place. Addy is a children's book illustrator and would be more than happy to support artists with developing their portfolio. Whatever your reasons for volunteering with us, we want to support you the best we can!

We usually go to sleep around 9:30pm, so please keep noise level down after that time :)

While we only allow plant-based food in our home, you are more than welcome to enjoy the local restaurants and vendors for any omnivorous options.
