Organic farm in Oregon Looking for the right people
  • I have a 20 acre organic farm.  7,000 SF stone ranch house (SF includes attached guest house), 40,000 SF below roof, 20,000 SF of greenhouses.  I bought the place because I did not want to see the bank take...and like Marcin said in his video.  I found I have all sorts of education and skills... and I am "useless" at running a farm.  I want to create a model of sustainable living and I can provide the renewable energy (www.V3Solar.com).  I just spoke with Marcin and I love the idea of creating a college to teach these skills.  I would love to work with 4 or 5 dedicated people who may not have all of the money to buy a farm, but could come in with some skin in the game and we can create a profitable model for the world.  If you have the skills and the desire to make this happen, let me know.  Here are some photos of the place http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/9394-Blackwell-Rd-Central-Point-OR-97502/2143097523_zpid/   I have it for sale because I just don't have the time to run it, but I would love to work with the right people.  There are several places to live.  3 groups would be ideal.  Let's create a sustainable model for the world (and a great lifestyle for ourselves).  Need people with skills and hard work.  Well grounded and focused.

  • Forgot to mention...  The farm is in Central Point, Oregon.  About 20 miles North of Ashland and 10 minutes from the Medford airport.
     
  • I'm in Cave Junction. How much skin would you like? What happens to our skin if you succeed in selling it?
     
  • So are you still there and looking to homestead?  We live in downtown auburn wa and are looking to relocate somewhere in the NW.  Wanting a more natural lifestyle.
     
  • Have you had any body take you  up on your offer?

    Are you still looking for people to farm the land?

    You can email me at johnkc2uzt@gmail.com if you are still looking to talk to people

    to help you.
