Living Roots Farm and Sustainable Living Center is located on a beautiful 75 acre property near Patoka Lake/French Lick/Paoli, IN. This historic farm has 3 barns, a bunkhouse, an arts center, more than 10 springs (including a spring house), good fencing, good soil, a pond, forest, and beautiful rolling pastures.

Living Roots Farm is currently looking for work exchangers to start. The work exchange consists of 3 farm work days a week, giving the work exchanger 4 days of flexibility and more freedom to choose what they are interested in learning. During these 4 days, it’s a possibility for the work exchanger to do more farm work (if they want a fuller experience), focus on sustainable living skills (off-the-grid/homesteading skills, culinary arts, healing arts, etc.), personal growth/reflection, or do whatever they like (such as work another job).

Long Term Work Exchangers can become long term residents at Living Roots and hold significant roles and responsibilities. Short Term Work Exchangers are those that are looking for a shorter learning experience. Typically the minimum length of stay for Short Term Work Exchangers is 1 month; however, sometimes (especially during the summer), it’ok to stay for shorter period of time. For those who come for a week or two for a short educational experience, a campsite is provided, but food is not.

Housing will be bunkspace in a shared off-the-grid cabin in our tiny house village, camper, campground spot, or a private cabin – depending on availability.

Food includes produce from the gardens, eggs from the farm, and other bulk staples. The food supplied is predominately vegetarian; however, meat is sometimes available from the farm animals. All residents always get discounts on the grass-fed beef.

Other perks for staff include: individual garden plot in shared garden space, use of wood fired cob hot tub, limited free wi-fi, use of arts center (healing arts, creative arts, culinary arts), and free access to any classes taught in the healing arts space (yoga, massage, acroyoga, etc.).
