Hello everyone - this community is in need of a few new mods, and you can use the comments on this post to let us know why you’d like to be a mod here. 

Priority is given to redditors who have past activity in this community or other communities with related topics. It’s okay if you don’t have previous mod experience and our goal, when possible, is to add a group of moderators so you can work together to build the community.

Please use at least 3 sentences to explain why you’d like to be a mod and share what moderation experience you have (if any).  

If you are interested in learning more about being a moderator on Reddit, please visit redditforcommunity.com. This guide to joining a mod team is a helpful resource. 

Comments from those making repeated asks to adopt communities or that are off topic will be removed. 

Caretaker position for 40 acres in the mountains of Humbolt County far north California. Live freely on our off-grid former cannabis farm. Rustic cabin with loft and a yurt. Multiple pristine springs with gravity fed irrigation to fertile south facing garden beds. Plenty of room to hunt. Solar and generator power with wood fired stove for heat in the winters. Starlink wifi. Comes with 2 elderly Great Pyranees dogs who have lived their whole life on the mountain. Other animals welcome.

VERY remote! 1.5 hour drive on rugged mountain roads to the closest small town of Willow Creek and 3 hour drive to Eureka on the coast. 4x4 strongly recommended. You must have your own source of remote income and a desire to live in nature removed from civilization. No rent collected, no hourly commitment but will need to care for the dogs and maintain the existing off-grid systems.

If you have your own off-grid RV/camper rig then availability can be ASAP (flat with spring water available). The cabin/yurt will be available sometime before winter (could be as soon as October).

Long term potential for the right persons. Our goal is to create a Trust with a small community (not a commune!) of individual homesteads. You and your heirs would have your own private section of land for organic homesteading. We love kids so homeschooling families are encouraged if the right fit!

DM a request for the link to apply. More photos and info in the application.

Like this guy here talks a lot about, and shows in this video, there are solar powered kits with an off-grid mesh network setup. I was considering joining the off-grid network. The comments section shows a growing number of supporters in many states.

It would be truly interesting if people could take themselves away from corporations running the networks.
