I have WWOOFed on a production coffee farm in Kona, Hawaii, cultivated kale, beets, and pineapples on a subsistence farm in Hilo, Hawaii, I grew produce and flowers on a 1/2 acre urban garden in Portland, OR for one season, and I have helped build a greenhouse on a homestead in southwestern Virginia. I currently manage a 1/4 acre garden in Northport. Starting seeds, transplanting, cultivating, harvesting...mostly on a small scale. I have not operated heavy equipment like a tractor or plow.
I have experience building traditional Mongolian-style yurts, which I plan to eventually build and sell as part of the farm business. I am studying herbalism and currently work for Avena Botanicals.

I lived and worked on a 40-acre homestead in Athens, Maine for five years in my mid-twenties as an apprentice and then farm manager, and am finally at a place where I can return to Maine in the hopes of renewing farming activities. We are looking for a small plot to rent or buy, or a partnership opportunity. We have experience keeping meat and laying chickens and bees, syruping, and growing organic vegetables and fruit trees.

I have been gardening and farming for over a decade. In 2006 I was a MOFGA apprentice at a permaculture homestead and tree nursery in Franklin Maine.
From there, I moved on to develop my own permaculture- focused homestead with livestock including poultry, dairy goats, honey bees, and meat rabbits, which I tended for 8 years. In 2013 I was accepted into the MOFGA Journeyperson program, which initiated 4 growing seasons of running my own cut flower farm, growing on a half acre and marketing to wholesale accounts, studio florists, farmer's market, CSA, and wedding design. In addition to my own farm, I have worked on 2 other flower farms in Maine as co-manager and harvest crew. With over 20 years of self-study in herbalism, today I am interested in focusing on permaculture and biodynamic growing of medicinal herbs and flowers. I am particularly interested in growing medicinals to be sold to established herbalists in the state, in addition to maintaining ample and diverse pollinator habitat including native and medicinal species.
