What do you hope to take away from an experience working on an organic farm?
What most interests me about this opportunity is living sustainably. I hope to gain the skills to have my own food source and to help others thrive from local eating. I hope to also find a new path in life and a new community of people to network with and to find new ways of life. I am interested in herbal medicine and growing my own plants.

What do you perceive will be your reaction to living and learning with new and unknown people in a rural area?
Living in a remote area will be sort of new for me. I have never lived in a very urban area but I do socialize a lot. I do have a car and I am looking into purchasing a bike. I thrive off of a balance, of alone time and socializing with people. I love to connect as most humans do so I hope there will be other people I am working with and building connections with.
