WE ARE MORE THAN A WEBSITE
THE CARETAKER GAZETTE: a company publishing
for 39 years! Our visitor traffic to www.caretaker.org keeps increasing every
week. That's because, as our advertisers and subscribers know - we are the only
Publication of its kind, we are a bricks and mortar company - not just a
website.
We have had a rise in the number of complaints about websites
that are set up to promote themselves by offering housesitting and property
caretaking assignments. Some of these websites have allowed people to place
fraudulent ads for housesitting and property caretaking jobs that do not exist.
THE CARETAKER GAZETTE is not affiliated with and has no connection to any of
these websites. All of the ads that you see in the printed issues and online
editions of the GAZETTE are legitimate and paid for by the
advertisers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MUST LOVE MUD, SWEAT AND MANURE. Exciting spring activities are under way at Fried Pie Farm, an in-progress homestead in Carroll County, VA. A mother-son team looking for organic gardening and sustainable farming apprentices/caretakers on a lovely five acre off-grid nearly fossil fuel free operation. We are also establishing a bird, butterfly and bee refuge. You can learn purest gardening, orcharding, and farming techniques in harmony with natural and human well-being. We practice a low technology approach to holistic agriculture and country life, using a windmill, solar greenhouse, etc. We enjoy our own simple home-made entertainment (music-making, board games, and reading from the homestead library). You can learn creative and resourceful hand-construction techniques. Learn natural health and well-being practices from a clinical nutritionist and life coach, and wild crafting of edible plants and medicinal herbs. You would exchange five hours a day helping on projects for fruit, veggies and herbs from the farm, and minute-to-minute hands-on instruction. Must have your own transportation. We are substance free (no alcohol, tobacco, recreational drugs, coffee, nor white sugar) for optimal health. Please call xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
