PORTLAND, OREGON

July 20 - August 3, 2024 / August 10 - 24, 2024

We are collaborating with Banks Road Farms to provide a unique Pop-Up Experience in the summer of 2024.

We welcome you to join the Nomastead community - work, live and play in nature for 2 weeks!

The need for community is at the very core of who we are as human beings.

Welcome to the Orchard

  • Gathering Space

    The orchard will be equipped with space to gather with others throughout the day - including games, conversations, and relaxing in the sun or shade.

  • Accommodations

    Each participant will have their own travel trailer nestled on the farm and set up like a small apartment and equipped WIFI and basic furnishings (e.g., bedding, kitchen essentials).

Group Activities

What’s Included

  • Choose your individual travel trailer which will be set up with everything you need (e.g., bedding, kitchen essentials).

  • Each 2-week experience will be completely unique because we will craft the agenda based on the group interests and preferences. Transportation to offsite activities is included, but any purchases you make while at the activity is on your own.

  • A welcome dinner and lavender experience will be included in the cost. We will also have a gathering space with seating and outdoor games to connect with others.

  • Strong WiFi will be available at the Lavendar Orchard in your travel trailer or the gathering area. We also anticipate having a nearby coworking space available on certain days.

Pricing

$2400 -$ 2900 for 2 weeks (July 20 - August 3 / August 10-24)

The final cost will be determined by your selection of one of the available travel trailers. These range in size, model and year.

 FAQs

  • Yes! If you have your own RV, van or travel trailer which is primarily self-sufficient, you can join the cohort at a reduced cost. Our site will be set up to provide you with water, power, sewer and Wi-Fi.

  • Sure! Both of the Portand dates will be very different since the agenda will be customized to the unique interests and preferences of each group of participants. We will offer a $250 discount to anyone who books both experiences. We can also offer ideas for how to spend the gap week (e.g., take a train to Seattle/Vancouver, a bus to the Portland Coast, or rent a car and explore other parts of Oregon).

  • The price does not include airport transportation, your individual food expenses (e.g., groceries, food and beverages at restaurants), or fees for optional activities. However, we will have a list of ala carte services available, which includes airport transport, one car available for hour-by-hour rental rates by participants, and much more. Banks Road Farms offers many intimate events during the summer (e.g. concerts, farm-to-table meals, yoga classes) which you may opt to join.
