We are two young families (two couples—one with one young child and the other with two) looking for a farm to live and work on. Our hearts are set on sustainable practices, permaculture, and forming a deep connection with the land. We have experience in and plan to continue to rescue animals, train horses, tend the land with intention and care, and we hope to soon settle in one place to cultivate relationship with the land and with community for many years to come.
The men in our families are experienced builders and have backgrounds in farming, primitive skills, and horsemanship~ among other things. The women are devoted mothers skilled in herbalism, farm care, primitive skills, animal husbandry, and traditional birth work. We are eager to collaborate with and learn from seasoned farmers and are seeking opportunity to work and live on the land.
We also have a small heard of beautiful goats & a few dogs between the 4 of us.
Our hope is to eventually take on the responsibility of a farm—one we can care for, nurture, and pass on for generations. We know that, in today’s economy, buying land as young families is close to impossible, so we are looking for an opportunity to connect with someone who may want to collaborate and to pass on their knowledge and farm over time.
Interested in work trade opportunities, rent to own possibilities, and open to other alternative arrangements.
Interested in Franklin county hopefully! In or around Fairfax would be ideal but nearby could work too
If you’re interested in helping two dedicated, hardworking families find a place to call home, grow towards their goals, & be able to be in service to the land and the community, we would love to connect.
