Programa detallado

Tasks include: irrigation, pruning, picking, fertilizing, pollination, clean-up, compost, trenching, house cleaning, road repair. We clean our soaking pools regularly and the farm could use someone with adequate videography and editing skills. We also like to connect with folks who know how to operate a sewing machine, so we can repair our date bags. Electricians and carpenters are appreciated.

This is an organic farm with a natural hot water source that flows out at 124 degrees (51c.) that we use for bathing and irrigation. Health oriented, no tobacco, alcohol or drugs, we are not close to public transportation, but we can fetch people at Greyhound in Indio or the Palm Springs airport with advance notice for either place.

We are 90 minutes from Joshua Tree and about the same to Anza Borrego, 35 minutes from Slab City and Salvation Mountain, 75 minutes to the sand dunes.
