We have a large currently non-commercial organic garden and small cabin available for possible work/trade for an experienced organic gardener. Located in the Santa Cruz mountains between Santa Cruz and Watsonville, CA. There is currently about an acre of developed beds, and several acres of mature and new trees. Another acre is available for development, and additional property nearby is being terraced, and planted with trees, ponds, produce, etc... Woofers provide seasonal labor, and a tractor and several utility vehicles are available for heavy work. Property is 20 acres total surrounded by timberland, on a private road, that is quiet but not remote (20 min. to Watsonville, 40-45 min. to Santa Cruz). Chickens provide eggs, goats would be desired. A large solar array supplies power for residences, greenhouses, workshops, and a good well. A sawmill, and local redwoods, firs, tan oaks and madrones have produced several utility buildings, and a new green house is planned. We would prefer someone that is extremely knowledgeable regarding permaculture, organic gardening and sustainable agriculture, to help work, manage and design the garden. Ideal for someone with additional source of income from teaching, writing, seminars, retirement, lottery winnings, whatever. Please contact Joe at woodyfranklin4@gmail.com, or call (831) 761-9004.
