Georgella Farm is a charming small family hobby farm on semi-rural acreage, just a short drive from Coffs Harbour, Sawtell, and beautiful beaches. Here, WWOOFers can experience farm life up close with our friendly animals—sheep, chooks, a cat, and two bunnies—while helping out with day-to-day tasks like feeding, gardening, mulching, pruning, fencing, and general yard and house maintenance. During free time, there’s plenty to explore in the surrounding area. You can visit pristine beaches, go swimming or surfing, take bushwalks, explore local markets, or enjoy the cafes and shops in Coffs Harbour and Sawtell. The region offers a great mix of natural beauty and small-town charm, perfect for relaxing after a day on the farm. Accommodation is in a small cabin for one person (possibly two), with shared meals provided. We offer a mixed diet and can accommodate most dietary needs. Please note, this is a non-smoking environment.

Welcome to our farm! A 34-acre family farm nestled in the beautiful Adelaide Hills near Clarendon, South Australia. We’re a fun-loving, social family who love meeting new people and learning about different cultures. On our property, we care for sheep, chickens, goats and tend to a growing orchard of fruit trees.

This picturesque area includes lakeside walks, Raymond Island (koala’s), cafes and 90 Mile beach. You can borrow our kayaks or bikes to explore the area. Our property is located 10 mins drive from Bairnsdale train station, there is also a local bus.

It gives me a lot of peace and satisfaction to deal with animals. I enjoy caring for them, observing their behavior and making sure they feel comfortable and safe.I used to ride horses for almost 2 years. It was great interacting with the horses and working with them. Dealing with animals helps me relax and gives me a sense of responsibility and satisfaction. I also think it is important to learn where our food comes from and how it is produced. Learning about growing vegetables and other products really appeals to me, because I enjoy eating tasty and healthy food. By understanding how food is grown in a sustainable and responsible way, I can be more conscious about what I eat while increasing my knowledge about nature. For me, caring for animals and enjoying good food is a way to relax and enjoy everyday life.

I would like to join WWOOF in Australia because I am very interested in learning about Australian agriculture and sustainable farming practices. I believe that by working directly on farms, I can gain hands-on experience and deepen my understanding of the land, crops, and lifestyle in rural Australia. Another reason is that I would like to stay in Australia for a longer period of time and travel around different regions. WWOOF offers a unique opportunity to explore many areas while being part of local communities, rather than just being a tourist. Finally, I am eager to meet people from different backgrounds and cultures. I believe cultural exchange is one of the most valuable experiences in life, and I would love to share my own culture while learning from hosts and fellow WWOOFers. I am excited to contribute, learn, and grow through this program.

I rented a field in Japan and grew vegetables for two years. I want to study agriculture in Australia. In the last WWOOF, I went to a winery and worked as a sommelier in Japan. While working, I rented a field and grew organic vegetables for two years. For example, white eggplant, cabbage, tomatoes, zucchini, radishes, etc. But I need to study more. I'm interested in agriculture in Australia. I'm also interested in dairy farming.

I enjoy to till the soil in different countryside and learn about different organic methods that people have developed through experience. Also i like to share any organic garden knowledge that I have and its also a great economic way to travel and immerse oneself in beautiful country areas.

“Millpost” is a 2700 acre wool growing property 30km east of Canberra. We have been implementing aspects of permaculture design since 1979. We mostly run merino sheep and also poultry, house cows, sheep dogs, and cats. We grow much of our vegetables and have a nursery of trees for planting on the farm. There are several houses on Millpost, I am in one and my children are here part time. Both of my brothers and their families and our parents also live here. Wwoofers stay in caravans or cabins, or in my spare room, whichever is available/easier. WWOOFers are included in all work on the farm and could be gardening, planting, working with sheep, fencing, building, whatever we are doing at the time. Each day you’ll be helping either me or my parents, David and Judith, in the garden or on the farm, and you’ll be provided with breakfast, morning tea, lunch, and dinner.

I joined WWOOF because I think it's a great way to get to know local people, experience Australian life/culture and learn something about organic growing.

Our farm is on a hill with lovely views about 5 minutes outside Yass, NSW; that is three hours south west of Sydney, 7 hours north east of Melbourne and 45 minutes north west of Canberra (the national capital). Yass is on the intersection of the highways between those three cities and on the railway between Sydney and Melbourne. We are a developing ‘whole’ farm - growing, cooking, bunching, drying and crafting with flowers, fruit and plants of all kinds, and taking bouquets and preserves to local markets and cafes. We follow organic and sustainable practices and are continually improving our soil and planting. We have developed a very attractive property, with beautiful house, gazebos, gardens and landscaped areas, intending to soon welcome the public for tours and workshops. We look forward to our WWOOFers being able to enjoy learning about our farm life and practices, and helping out while still having lots of free time. Beyond our place you can see livestock on neighbouring properties, kangaroos, the hills of the picturesque Yass River Valley and, in the distance, the Brindabella mountains that lead to the Snowy Mountains, while on our property you can meet our two gentle Maremma sheepdogs, two cats, Babydoll sheep, chickens, ducks and geese, watch all the wild birdlife and use our swimming pool in the warmer months. We work hard and there's a lot to do every day- but we tailor the place and hours of work to suit the weather and season. If it is going to be hot we might start very early and rest in middle of the day. If it rains, there are indoor tasks to complete. We can tailor the work to your special interests and competencies, give you lots of free time to relax and help you with sightseeing. We invite you to enjoy home-cooked meals with us (and cook a meal of your own!), have a laugh, and socialise with our family and friends. We hope to meet enthusiastic, responsible and mature WWOOFers, who enjoy country surroundings, who are keen to learn and help out, and are appreciative and respectful, just like we are. Send us a message with any questions, and an idea of when you’d like to stay. We normally like volunteers to stay for at least 2 weeks so they can enjoy a wide variety of activities  and after initial messages like to finalise plan by phone. We look forward to hearing from you!

We are a couple living off grid on a hill in Royalla, just outside of Canberra. Our property is 300 acres of forested land. We are currently building a sustainable home using stone and hempcrete. We have a garden where we practice Masanobu Fukuoka's natural farming for vegetable growing combined with syntropic agroforestry. We are at the beginning of our journey and the soil is very depleted but we are already seeing good results in these methods. We have sheep, goats and chickens for our own production of meat, eggs and dairy products. There are a lot of farming infrastructure projects on our to do list and we love to make improvements to how we do things all the time. We get temperatures between -6 in the winter to 40+ in the summer. We have lots of opportunities to see local animals of all types.

To take part in an exchange of my labour for cultural and technical learning. I enjoy gardening and working outdoors. To make my extended holiday less mundane. Maybe to help me be less afraid of coming across snakes and spiders in Australia.

I am not intending to be a full time commercial farmer in the near future, as I enjoy my current profession. However, I do want to be able to grow my own food, as well as make a bit of secondary income. While in Australia, it is difficult to progress my professional career much because of Visa restrictions, but doing WWOOF will definitely help me learn skills and gain experience for secondary life goals.
