When: Assistance is needed here from May – October; June-Sept planting>harvest time being the most vital. I prefer those who will stay for longer, rather than shorter, periods. Coming in for a short while during our most intense harvests is wonderful too. This stay could extend into winter caretaking.

I have a beautiful little paradise to share with you in return for some joyous work! FlowerSong is a 1.5 acre orchard / garden sanctuary in a tiny village next to the Paysayten Wilderness area of N central Washington – the gorgeous little valley of the Sinlaheken River. It’s glorious to spend days right within the beautiful privacy fence of this little Eden, plus, it’s just a few minutes drive to a big rolling mountain stream and millions of acres of wilderness forest and lakes.

Speaking of lakes, around us is wildlife preserve; large, beautiful ranches; and small, deep lakes for fishing. AND speaking of fishing, we have the best right here in our larger- -than–Olympic-swimming-pool-size irrigation pond – I caught a couple 2 feet long trout, and enjoyed watching hundreds of them flash to the surface to take our offering of food all last summer.

The work

The work here is simple: we have extensive no-turn garden beds, all mulched and waiting to produce. There are 85 fruit trees (many varieties of peach, nectarine, cherry, plum, apricot, apple, grapes and mulberry) to nourish and care for, as well as the grass under and around them. All this is watered when you make rain from the huge irrigation pond via a network of established rainbirds. Your skill with composting is also needed.

This year I need someone to organize and execute a farmer’s market selling program. Food can be picked, gathered, and boxed here (even supplemented by neighboring orchards) and taken to markets in the area. Just over the mountain in the Methow Valley is a Saturday market which is very popular with folks from Seattle, and would be an excellent one to attend, and there are several others.

A tasty and time-consuming job is preservation of all the fruit and vegetables grown here. We dry as much fruit/tomatoes and make as much leather as possible – that is basically our only cash crop, although any medicinals we would grow/create could also be sold, or traded at Barter Faire. We steam-juice, make into goodies, can, and freeze many things. Last year we had fruit preserves, salsa, tomato sauce, canned sweet fruit and tomatoes, pumpkin pie mix, apple pies, cherry pies, mincemeat, and pear chutney. Much more is possible with someone who loves to make luscious food for the winter!

There will be some simple building and repair jobs that require basic carpentry skill. We will also improve the landscaping. A few steps and trails up and around the terraces need to be improved with rock work. You need to be comfortable with the feel of a working shovel in your hands. (When we are too warm from working, the turquoise dipping pool beside the ceremonial meadow is availble for cooling off, and rest is sweet on the cedar deck or huge hammock there beside the little waterfall.)

Special Projects

Special projects this summer include: re-decorating my beautiful and unique gypsy wagon, making a cool and cozy tent site in the forest by the little waterfall below us, growing / producing more medicinal products, and creating a small, exquisite shrine to Lady Gaia, our sweet Mother Earth. Improving the Feng Shui of the place, as well as working with the overlighting deva of FlowerSong and all the nature spirits, will also serve us well.

We will create a fire circle in the now-established ceremonial meadow, and enjoy evenings around a fire, singing, drumming, sharing, dreaming. We may invite others from the community to join us once a month to share the beauty and inspiration of this lovely place.

Benefits

In return for your work you will have a home in this sweet Eden; all the fresh, organic food you can prepare and eat in the lodge kitchen; laundry and internet wifi; the pleasure of this beautiful country to play, hike and fish in; and access to my healing / transformative private sessions by our separate agreement. If you want to offer your skills, such as massage, there is a summer community here that might well like to enjoy them, and thus create some income for you.

My baseline spirituality is Native American yet many ways of Earth wisdom are honored. Respecting and enhancing the web of life is my goal. We will work for Mother Earth, the goddess Lady Gaia, in all that we do, creating an uplifted vibration of harmony to radiate around us. Working with the land, I honor the traditions of Machaelle Small Wright, Fukuoka, Ruth Stout, and many others.

Students come to retreat with me a few at a time, and integrate themselves into the family. I need someone here who enjoys cooking and helping care for our guests, so that I can focus on the healing and transformative work I offer them. We may have several people coming for vision quest, as well.If you have personal interest in such things, you also can participate in these heaing and spiritual activities.

Who Is Invited

I choose to have people who love to work and make beauty, adding the exquisite line of attention to detail, and who enjoy playing when the work is done. I seek people around me who are open-hearted and broad-minded, find joy in life, laugh a lot, and are good at making me laugh. You need to have any issues about mother and authority worked out; I’m not interested in playing those games. Neither am I interested in sarcasm, righteousness, and judgement. I offer and expect sharing, loving kindess, wise discernment, cooperation and open communiation.

I think a couple would work very beautifully in our space here, although individuals are certainly welcome. There is a cool and cozy bedroom in the lodge for you, and spaces to living happily in tents or under the stars. When it is not in use by retreatants, the big tipi and hammock in a private corner of the land by the pool are available, as is a sleeping hammock beside the dipping pool in the oak trees.

Our dress code here includes fig leaves and breech cloths; we find the human body beautiful, yet are respectful of each other and our guests.
