D&T Build: Memorial Day Homesteading Experience

May 25 - May 27

$350

Men and women 16+
All creeds welcome

Our homestead at Camp One is a communal enterprise, one we’d like to share with you. Please join us on Memorial Day weekend for the first of many team builds as we co-create our basecamp for Northern California wilderness adventure.

You’ll have a chance to meet our goats, collect eggs from the henhouse, and take a nap by the creek if that’s what suits you. And all of this in a safe, beautiful, and culturally-sensitive environment that will foster three days of teamwork, camaraderie, and construction where we build bonds right along with our composting outhouse, insha Allah.

We’ll go over the plans, lay out our materials, and build the outhouse together, a boon to future campers and our garden, insha Allah. We’ll be teaching basic carpentry and the use of common power tools along the way. We’ll also talk about why we chose a composting toilet and the general considerations of homesteading that inform such decisions.

Included in your experience:

    • Two nights in our home at Camp One
    • On-site parking
    • A tour of the Camp One homestead where you can help us draft future projects
    • 100% halal meals provided for the duration of your stay
    • Facilitation of build, including basic carpentry and the use of power tools
    • Safety glasses
    • Commemorative D&T keepsakes to honor our time together
    • Friends and memories to last a lifetime!

     
    No previous construction experience required. All we ask is that you show up receptive to instruction and ready to work alongside your brothers and sisters. And please bring your own work gloves!

    We’re building a team and only the most committed will qualify. For that reason, your non-refundable investment of $350 is due in full at the time of registration. Monies will be used to purchase supplies necessary for the build. We ask that you consider this before registering.

    If forced to cancel due to inclement weather or other unforeseeable event, Dust and Tribe will extend an invitation to reschedule. If this is not possible, your payment will be returned.

    Post your questions and comments here, or send them privately via our Contact page.
