I'm not sure an "apprenticeship" is what I'm looking for, but I'm happy to fill this out anyway.

I can't remember where I heard about the program, other than "somewhere on the internet a while back."
I'll be able to visit/volunteer/apprentice during this winter, I'll be rather busy all summer and fall.
Goals
Three areas of Interest
Product Ecologies

I've lived with new and unknown people in urban settings several times, I anticipate I will be just as or more able to do so in a rural area.
Can I pay for food? Most likely, the big issue would be transportation. Is there a grocery store within 20 miles?
Will I be able to visit... before I visit? Sure, I can visit twice.
I do not smoke.
I will eat nearly anything.
Including and especially your farm's meat.
My primary form of transportation is a mid 70s-vintage Schwinn LeTour. The farthest we've ever traveled together was Chicago to Pittsburgh.
Resources to support myself... What will I need? Are you talking about money, or shelter/tools? In any case I will have them.
Medical/emotional/psychological issues... I tend to sleep about 10-12 hours a day in the winter, when I will be most able to visit. Other than that no.
Other Considerations:
Special Interests:
Homebrewing, Bicycles, Linux
Do I have strong ideological views?
You could say that.
Three interesting things
three things folk oughta know
Other farms? As I said, I'm actively involved with Landslide Community Farm.
Rough accomodations do not worry me.
