Earthway Experience is an Permaculture Demonstration & Learning Center. Experience our unique location directly on Lake Siljan, which has been called “the most beautiful lake in all of Europe".
We have no electricity or running water in the area, except for the stream running through the area! We have solar panels and are planning on using wind power as well.
Our Center includes a forest garden, annual garden, outdoor kitchen,herb garden, experimental crops (no till farming)
food preservation ( drying, smoking, fermenting), mushroom cultivation, bee keeping, natural building projects, worm bins, chicken tractors, green house (to be built), alternative energy, rain water catchments.
Positions are from June 1 to the end of September. This year I'd like to have several who stay all summer.
We are looking for hard working , community minded individuals who are looking to expand their life experiences with something different and fun. If you would like to be a part of the exceptional Earthway Experience and see it from the beginning - then this is for you! !
What to Expect
We will be planting fruit trees, food plants as well as medicinal plants.
Wood cutting and splitting.
Last Summer we finished building our log sauna house, finished the outside kitchen and worked more on our outside shower (a very nice one the interns say!) We built several more raised beds for growing.
This summer we will have several more small building projects.
Will be working on compost systems and making our soil better.
We have several rabbits who need daily care.
We may have chickens again this summer as well...I hope so.
You will need to provide your own your own tent but we have cots to sleep on with pads and warm sleeping bags.
We cook as a group , lots of fun!
What we offer is the opportunity to experience the beginning of something special in the making. Lots of good work, good learning and a life experience never to forget!
Please email a little info about yourself, why you want to come and participate in this Experience.
