Elysian Fields

Thunder Bay, Ontario,

Canada

Labor for Land Exchange!!

Sprawling land parcel with acres of fertile soil - big and small game hunting, fishing, and animal husbandry are just a smattering of what is possible to cultivate on this compound.

We are off to a good start with a ready made solar powered cabin, 2 wood stoves, and 1 generator nestled on 20 acres with two pounds - full of bait for fishing in a mighty river situated 5 minutes away from the cabin.

Ideally, I would start with a husband and wife who yearn to get off the grid and ply their skills to make their dreams come true.

As we expand, we invite more people to join in and add their skills and talents to the sustainable community lifestyle.

If your in love with rough hewn Canadian wilderness in the north of Ontario and are finally ready to make your off the grid dreams come true, please do drop a line so we can put our heads together and make a plan.

Since it is a 2 bedroom cabin, there is the potential to share as you build your own domain to get started.

I look forward to hearing your ideas.
