Work Exchange for Alaskan Experience - Haines, AK

We are looking for a couple to live in a new home on our property in exchange for 12/hours/week work per person.  Work will include mostly gardening and outdoor work in the summer and  a variety of indoor projects in winter.  We are open to short term 1-2 month stay  as well.

We live in the mountains 40 miles away from the small coastal town of Haines.  While having  most of the luxuries of modern life, we   live as sustainably and  simply as we can.  This new  house allows us to have someone living on our property, to help us maintain this lifestyle as we get older.      We may leave for weeks in the summer and months in the winter  when you would be responsible for maintaining the gardens and greenhouses.  The house  is mostly heated with wood   requires preparing firewood for winter.

This would be the Alaskan experience : joining us in fishing, gathering  foods like berries, growing and preserving foods,  hiking, skiing, and snowshoing, living as  part of a community.   

Contact us and we will send photos.
