Husband, wife and baby trio in North Eastern VT. We're small, on ten acres and building our off-grid home. This will be our third year on completely blank land. Dave is a carpenter and Rose runs the homestead. As of now we have chickens, dogs, apples, flowers, produce and herbs. Rose makes and sells soap and wool products at two farmers markets on the weekend. We are ideally looking for someone who is passionate about sustainable living and lifestyle. We're looking for someone part time as we do not have a lot that we can afford. We are willing to barter for some of the compensation. This position has a lot of room to grow if the person is the right fit.

I grew up in rural upstate New York and moved to Vermont when I was in college. Throughout my 20s I worked on a variety of different farms, completed the apprenticeship in ecological horticulture at UC Santa Cruz, and farmed for myself for a few years on a rented farm. At 29 I began a graduate program in rural development. While working on my dissertation I fixed up an old farm in southeastern Vermont, but have not yet begun farming there in earnest. For the past two years I have been a visiting faculty member at New York University, where I teach about food systems. This spring I will be a visiting researcher at the Center for Rural Research in Norway. I am eager to settle back in Vermont and to get involved with all the good work that is going on building sustainable food systems here.

This program remains strong four years later with over 400 farmer calls to the informational hotline and 145 roll bars installed, providing 99% protection from death in the event of a roll over. This work received national recognition from NIOSH in 2012.
