*** We are currently looking for a WWOOFer/intern (or a couple) who is interested in staying for the entire month of October. Please reach out if you are interested. Otherwise, we are full for the 2026 season! ***

Routine morning and evening chores include moving sheep fencing, feeding chickens, ducks, and rabbits, and watering the garden. Other projects may consist of natural building, weeding and removing invasive plants (cholla, tumbleweeds, cheatgrass), building water harvesting earthworks, plumbing greywater systems, and improving and repairing infrastructure, animal processing (optional), and hide tanning. WWOOFers will primarily work with Nina, who has many years of experience in animal husbandry and is eager to teach basic animal health, regenerative grazing, animal processing etc. She is also a certified Water Harvesting Practitioner and can instruct WWOOFers on water harvesting earthworks, rain collection, and greywater systems.

WWOOFers can expect to work from 7am-noon, 5 days a week with two full days off in a row. In the evenings, we rotate who's responsible for completing evening animal/garden chores, cooking dinner, and doing dishes. WWOOFers will work alongside Nina until they feel comfortable and confident performing specific tasks independently or with another WWOOFer. This year (2026-2027), we have received funding through the New Mexico Healthy Soil Program to tackle invasive weed growth (mainly tumbleweeds and kochia) by implementing native grass re-seeding, compost application, and bale grazing. This project will begin in July 2026 and run through late summer 2027.

Currently, we can only offer camping as an accommodation. WWOOFers are welcome to tent or car/van/trailer camp. We have two, 3-person tents with futon mattresses. All bedding/pillows are provided. Of course, if WWOOFers have their own vehicle or camping equipment they would like to use, they are welcome to do so! If our cob hut is not being rented out on hipcamp, WWOOFers can stay in there. WWOOFers will have full access to a composting toilet, an indoor bathroom for showering, our kitchen, and common space. We plan to have family dinners, while breakfast and lunch will likely be on everyone's own. WWOOFers can access our full kitchen in the house and the pantry/fridge will be stocked.

Ideally, we ask that WWOOFers plan to stay for at least two weeks. This allows time for folks to learn the routine chores and be able to complete some of them independently. Dylan and I also work off the farm a couple days a week so this also allows for us to have enough time together to make it a meaningful educational experience.
