“Get Grounded” – Crash Course on Sustainable Living

Come join us for this short internship program on sustainable living techniques.  We will together through hands-on instruction learn how to use the techniques we use at our farm and how to put these into practice in your everyday life.

February 11-20, 2011

In this 10-day workshop we will cover the stages in natural building, earthen plasters, and homemade clay paints, organic gardening including making your own compost and liquid micro-organism fertilizers, traditional and new natural health techniques, making products, and a 2-day study trip to other sustainable living projects in the area.

Thai organic farmer/earthen builder Jon Jandai and partner Peggy Reents, along with other members of their community, will lead you through experiencing living in a more self-reliant manner, connected with nature around us.  Experience living in community with Thai and international members, eating homemade healthy delicious meals, and getting your hands dirty!
