At the Greater World Earthship Community we offer the Volunteer Program , the Internship Program , the Earthship Weekend Seminar and the Earthship Certification Program. With our traveling seminars we have three additional options for bringing Earthships to your area. The Volunteer Program is offered year-round, but more opportunities are available April through October. Anyone interested in learning some hands-on building techniques are welcome. You do not need previous construction experience.
Volunteers do anything from tire pounding, can laying, mixing concrete, throwing mud etc.
Clothes that you don't mind destroying, sturdy closed-toed shoes, sunscreen, drinking water and a sack lunch. Also helpful are a pair of leather work gloves and a pair of rubber gloves. There is a hostel about twenty minutes away called The Abominable Snow Mansion which has bath rooms and teepees available. Though we've had many interns in the past, the Internship Program has been fairly informal. This year we are limiting the number of interns and instituting an application process.
