Cambium Crew
PEG 2025 is scheduled for September 3rd-7th. Application for Cambium Crew will be live Summer 2025!
Overview
We changed the name from Worktrade to Cambium Crew because the Cambium is the growth layer of a tree. We are all growing and learning at the gathering. We wanted to recognize how important and essential The Cambium Crew is to the event. Without your assistance, we wouldn’t be able to make it happen.
We have so much gratitude for all of your support!
The Piedmont Earthskills Gathering has 18 Full and 22 Partial positions available for people who would like to work in exchange for partial entry to the event. The majority of positions may involve helping on one of the following teams: Cooking (3 different teams), Set up/Breakdown (tarps, firewood, site clearing, lighting and signage), Registration, First-Aid, Sanitation (during event) and Kid Crew. Many of these positions involve work that will be completed before the event.
Gift Trade is another work trade option, which you can learn about here.
