There is an online "newsletter" (now in blog format) for the "alternative" community on Kaua'i: <a href="http://heartbeatofkauai.com" rel="nofollow">heartbeatofkauai.com</a>. It focuses on services and events, but sometimes there are housing arrangements listed. I still think the advice is accurate: you may not be able to find something from afar, but if you come with some savings, you can make contacts on Kaua'i and get leads for farm work. Some places to look are the local bulletin boards. The ones at Papaya's Natural foods is probably the biggest I'm aware of, but I think Java Kai and Small Town Coffee have one too. All of those are in Kapaa. The organic farms are mostly located in Moloa'a and Kilauea, so maybe the local gathering places there have useful boards as well.
