SEEKING forested land for two yurts (Spring '17)
Couple in early 30’s with dog are seeking forested land to put two yurts on to live in full time for approximately two years (starting in spring of 2017). Perhaps you have a vacant lot available, preferably with electricity and water available or know someone that does. We are very earth conscious individuals and will respect your land.
Details on what we are seeking:
-forested land, with a cleared area large enough for two yurts, 14’ and 20’
-currently living and working in East Aurora so we would like to find a place in neighboring towns (Elma, Wales, South Wales-preferably Wales along Hunter Creek?)
-prefer to have electricity and water available
-it would also be ideal to have a driveway/access road, and if not be willing to allow us to create a driveway/access road
-our preference is to do labor in place of rent, if a barter is not realistic, we would prefer the rent to be about $100 a month -some the skills we have are forestry assessment, tree work of any kind, gardening/farming, landscaping, preparing land for gardening, running small equipment, general maintenance, cleaning and much more
-live in one place for about two years (so most likely until spring/summer of 2019)
-to build semi-permanent decks with a large enough footprint for the yurts to sit up off of the ground
-we have a wood stove, so harvesting firewood from forest would be ideal (male is certified arborist and has the utmost respect for trees and the land)
- to be able to build a small greenhouse type area connecting the two yurts, and possibly create an area for a small garden
We work full time but spend the majority of our free time at home. We grew up in Chautauqua County and have family nearby. Female works in natural resource conservation (farming emphasis) and male works as a certified arborist, forest consulter and currently studies invasive species affecting trees. We are excited to find an ideal piece of property and would like to work with someone to find what is best for all of us. However, we are somewhat flexible with our desires to work with the landowner’s needs and desires as well.
Please ask any questions you may have and I look forward to corresponding with you.
