Work-trade living situation

I’m sharing this post for 2 reasons:

1) Because it might be a nice work-live situation for someone. Located in Florida.

And

2) I’m also sharing this as one example of a general trend. There are lots of people all over the country who have land and are looking for help, and there are lots of people who don’t have a place to live who are looking for a place to live.

Situations vary widely. Some you can live in your van or a bus or tent; some there are indoor accommodations. Some charge rent, some are entirely work-trade.

Note, just because a situation is rent-free or only asks a minimal money contribution, does not mean it is free of exploitation. Do your homework accordingly and make sure a situation is a fit for you and your skills/offerings.

Also: Many of us refrain from using the word “homestead,” because of its racist / colonizer associations. Many of us prefer to simply say farm, ranch, smallholding, or even just household.

That said, the Facebook group linked has almost 100,000 people, and a great variety of living situations being offered and being asked for. It’s a good place to get an overview of the lay of the land, societal-trendly speaking.
