About the Organizations

What we do

Founded in 2013 in Floyd County, Virginia, Springhouse envisions a regenerative culture where all people are connected to the vitality within themselves, their community, and the Earth. Springhouse creates and shares a model of regenerative culture through vitality-centered education that equips people to courageously respond to the world’s emerging needs.
Springhouse offers programs for teens and adults including an accredited Day School for adolescents, adult fortification courses, and cultural design programs, including a certificate program in regenerative cultural design and practice for adults.
Finally, Springhouse operates with a generative economic model – one that is not tuition-based and is rooted in trust, transparency, and relationship. We do not charge tuition for any program or experience we offer. We are generously supported by a local and global community who deeply cares for the vision and work of Springhouse.
Please feel free to visit our website for more information at www.springhouse.org.
Day School
Our 4-year Day School program serves teens (generally ages 13-18) and their families who long to live in a regenerative culture. Learners are not placed into specific grade levels dependent on age. Learning happens in developmentally-appropriate ways, which may or may not coincide with their age. This full-time program provides the essential knowledge that a regenerative culture builder needs at this stage of life as well as opportunities to practice the skills necessary to build life-giving culture both at Springhouse and in the Floyd community.

Social Media Intern for GEN International Hours: Up to 20/month, flexible around your schedule and availability Location: Remote, work with Eva Goldfarb Focus: Instagram + LinkedIn (TikTok if you’re into it!) Hi! I’m Eva, and I run social media for GEN International — the global network connecting ecovillages, intentional communities, and regenerative culture-builders across every continent. I’m looking for a co-conspirator to help me tell the stories of the people quietly building the future: off-grid villages in the Philippines, permaculture farms in Senegal, urban cohousing projects in Berlin, elders passing down land wisdom in the Andes. It’s a wildly rich, wildly underrepresented world, and I want more people to fall in love with it the way I have. What you’ll actually do: Dream up and create content for Instagram and LinkedIn (reels, carousels, stories, captions that don’t sound like a corporate newsletter) Dig into our global network and turn your findings into stories people want to share Pitch your own ideas. If there’s a series, a theme, a format, or a corner of the network that lights you up, that’s what I want you to focus on. What we’re looking for: A natural storyteller, someone who can spot the human thread in a project update or a photo from a faraway village Genuinely curious about ecovillages, sustainability, intentional community, regenerative living Self-motivated and communicative; this is a flexible, trust-based role Why this role: This isn’t a “post 3x a week and don’t ask questions” internship. You’ll have real creative freedom to work on what excites you, learn how a global grassroots network tells its story, and build a portfolio full of meaningful, purpose-driven content. Plus you’ll be talking to people living some of the most interesting, intentional lives on the planet. If storytelling for a better world sounds like your kind of fun, let’s talk.
