Rolling Earth Farm and Retreat is accepting volunteer applications for
our 2015 season, April 1 – September 30 – with a one-month minimum
stay. We are seeking motivated learners and doers that want to be part
of a small family, developing permaculture farm, and rural property.
We are located in Roberts Creek, on the beautiful Sunshine Coast of
British Columbia. Our farm is nestled in the forest with Clack Creek
running through the property. We have chickens, a dog, small
greenhouses, gardens, new orchards, bees, educational activities, a
cob house rental, and retreats. We hope to find kid-friendly
volunteers to share with our work and play.

The daily workload is about 6 hours, 5 days a week of
farm/retreat/educational work and 1-2 hours sharing in cooking and
cleaning. You can expect to do a variety of jobs from planting,
prepping, harvesting, preserving foods from our market/home gardens to
digital documentation and outreach, selling at market, etc. This will
depend on your skills, our needs, and the time of year.

In exchange we will provide you with food and lodging. As well we try
to connect our volunteers with the community – and happily help them
discover all the extras that are part of the Sunshine Coast. These
include other farms, festivals, events, local beaches, trails, etc.

We are also looking for a volunteer from June 1- August 31 who loves
and has experience working with children. This volunteer’s 6 hours of
work will include 4 hours of childcare with our 9 and 7 year old.

For further information and to apply for the 2015 season please send
your resume and questions to:

Thanks for your interest!

Brett and Joah
