Living and working with us

Membership at Living Energy Farm

Living Energy Farm sometimes has openings for new members. If you are interested in contributing to our mission of building sustainable and self-determined communities, and think you might be a good fit for our project, a great first step is to come out for a tour and get to know us in person.

If you live too far away to come out for a tour, please reach out by email to livingenergyfarm at gmail.com to find out if we have openings and learn more about the application process.

More information about LEF membership is on our listing at the Foundation for Intentional Community (FIC) Directory.

Volunteering with us

Living Energy Farm hosts residential volunteers during the agricultural season, May through October. Volunteers work 35-40 hours a week in exchange for room and board. During the growing season, work is mainly agricultural, although we will ask volunteers to pitch in with domestic work as well (cooking and cleaning).

Sometimes we have space for volunteers who are interested in working on technology projects during the off-season. It’s helpful if off-season volunteers have mechanical experience. But more important than experience is self-motivation and an ability to work independently.

If you’re interested, email us at livingenergyfarm at gmail.com to find out about current openings and how to apply.
