Seems you can earn an acre of land if you join the [permaculture bootcamp](https://wheaton-labs.com/bootcamp/) at Wheaton Labs and stay for at least 2 years. This guy did it!

Like a legit work-trade/barter kind of situation?
If only I didn’t have kids and a husband that was willing…
I don’t see anywhere that you own the land, just that it is rent free. So, if you do eventually have a family, it may not be something that could be passed down.
Two years for one acre that you don’t even seem to own?
Do you get room, food, and board for that 2yrs?
Shoot. I think it sounds really cool. I would do it If I was not already married, with a kid and stuck in a mortgage.
“$25,000 for one acre. $50,000 for three acres.
This arrangement can be terminated by either party at any time for any or no reason. If the relationship ends in less than ten years, the funds paid are returned less 10% per year after the first post is put in the ground.
Renter cannot put their post in the ground until they have met some minimum requirements of understanding our overall standards here. Maybe having listened to most podcasts. Maybe a combination of books and podcasts. Maybe a combination of books, podcasts and time in the bootcamp. The important thing is that we only want deep roots people that are a good fit for our community and appreciate our values.”
