you guys seen this before?

Locate farm vacations on U.S. working farms and ranches offering overnight lodging and opportunities to experience a rural lifestyle.

Seems like a pretty cool idea for people to get exposure to something they haven't done before. I can think of several members here who could even be involved with offering to participate, free labor!

It looks similar to WWOOF. I've been a host farm and had great experiences. I hope to do it again next year

Every time I see a homesteader advertising a permaculture or primitive living seminar or certification I chuckle and wonder if they're just looking for cheap labor.  I know that sounds cynical, and a guy's gotta make a livin', but I always wonder.

I used to flip through martial arts magazines to see if Matt Furey had come up with a new marketing angle.  I do the same thing with Mother Earth News.
