Current Retreat: July 20-August 1 2021
Deadline to apply June 1  Awarded by June 15

About the Retreats
Spend the first 3 days learning animal care and farm systems, participating in various farm projects and learning a variety of skills. Then spend 7-10 days to yourself on site, while Ruby travels. You will have a private room/studio,  kitchen, wi-fi, hottub.  Aside from morning and evening animal chores your time is your own to rest, write, read, draw, paint, take walks, and otherwise create and/or rejuvenate amidst the great natural beauty of the farm. If trying out farm life is one of your goals, farm tasks and projects can be assigned, but there is no obligation beyond the basic chores.  You must be prepared to stay onsite every night, daytime excursions are acceptable. 

Summer retreat focuses on Sheep management/breeding, Irrigation systems, Harvest & Processing fruit.

About the Farm
Faerie Road Farm is a slice of paradise nestled in a gentle crook of the rogue river on a quiet dead end road.  It offers big skies, green grass and clean air. The land is a poultice for frazzled nerves and overtaxed adrenals.
The farm features several orchards, vegetable gardens, medicinal and culinary herb gardens, flower patches, sheep, chickens, rabbits, cats, dogs and a pond in a pastoral setting just north of Grants Pass in Southern Oregon.
The retreat is appropriate for a single person or a couple. Family with children may be considered.

Cost: $200-400 (negotiable)  covers utilities and oversight
Lodging: You will have your own room with bed & desk in a cozy light and art filled home.  There is a full kitchen, relatively good rural wi-fi, laundry, hot-tub, private bath.
Food: Basic condiments, eggs and garden veggies are provided. Otherwise you provide your own food. Fridge and freezer space will be available.

The application process consists of a written application and a zoom based interview.
