My cousin took part on WOOFing and I really liked the Concept of it. When I started to plan my own journey I thought of WWOOFing  as a method to get to know other people and also safe money.

I have always been interested in organic farming i grew up digging in the garden with my dad growing potatoes and vegetables for the garden. I love working outdoors and feeling connected to the ground and nature around me. I would love to continue to learn more about permaculture and organic gardening learning form people who are passionate and interested in what they do. i am taking a break from nursing in Ireland and traveling to Australia and would love to experience organic farming in the southern hemispher.

Our 5 acre organic property is 20 kms north of Mackay, with views of the surrounding volcanic mountains. We run the Organic & Natural Store, retailing & delivering a complete range of organic food & products. A holistic approach is embraced. We have an organic market garden and certified organic shop, where Permaculture & Bio-dynamic principles are used. Volunteering chores are varied including general gardening, weeding, harvesting, etc. Right around the corner are pristine beaches where you can view kangaroos on the beach at sunrise. Other activities and interests include African drumming. Accommodation for 1-2 people. Meals are organic. Vegetarian/vegans catered for. Those with an interest in food are welcome to cook. Can P/U from Mackay bus station.

I joined Wwoof because I think volunteering is a great way to meet new people and to learn new skills. I would like to get to know more about how locals live.

I love natural and organic products and would like to meet people who make them, learn how they are produced and learn to live close to nature.  As Australia is more developped in organic methods and plant-based cookig etc. , the experince will help to fulfill my work and life.  Having experience of wwoofer, I would like to introduce more variety of natural food  and life to Japanese and also to be more help for foreigners in Japan  who have food restrictions etc. in my cooking instructer work.

I love traveling so I quit my job in March. After a long stay in england I'm ready for a nother country and continent. I like to get in touch with other people and learn how they live. I think wwoofing could be the best way for a nice experience in Australia 🙂

We are coming to Australia from Canada on a family holiday in October 2023. We would like to get off the beaten path, experience rural Australia, meet interesting people, learn about permaculture and organic gardening, see Australian flora and fauna, help and make a contribution while we are away, and have an amazing adventure!

We live on 20 acres on Crescent Head Rd, 7 km from beautiful Crescent Head, where we grow Lemon Myrtle organically but we are not certified. We started the plantation in 2001 with little knowledge of what it would take to grow it successfully. We have learned so much through the years! We do everything ourselves with the harvester we purchased in Western Australia (that my husband smartly fitted to cut Lemon Myrtle by adding a conveying belt) and a distillery unit Paul also built from scratch. For years, we produced very high quality pure essential oil but are now selling the leaves to a company who makes tea/spices with it... it is less labor intensive for us.

I joined WWOOF through American Institute of Foreign Studies (AIFS) and am interested in learning about life on Australian Organic & Permaculture farms and learning about growing and producing organically.

We wanted to gain insight into great places to visit from locals and meet new people. Wwoofing seems a great oppertunity to get to know new people and learn new skills. Amy and I are interested in trying new things and this would be something new and exciting for us both.

Im excited to WWOOF, as i have been looking forward to the opportunity for years. Finally I am travelling, to embrace adventure and to be involved in organic farming communities. I grew up in the Kimberly's, living on family friends farms, and developed a strong connection with farm life, and a yearning to be more involved from this experience. Ben is Interested in Conservation and Land Management, aswell as off-grid living. He would like to learn more permaculture practices, to lead a more sustainable life We hope to hear from you!

Have recently left work for a longer period of time wanting to learn more about farm sciences like agriculture/horticulture/permaculture. Mainly wanting to pick up, understand, learn and adopt various farming mentalities, ethics, practices, skills. Want to support, meet and help farmers who do really need a can-do-attituder and are happy to share their ideas; passing on treasures knowledge.

I heard using wwoof I can live in the beautiful farm and learn about the farm works. I think this is wonderful program. I always wanted to live in a animal farm. I never stayed farm before. My parents used to have a duck and chicken when I was young but It was very very small farm. Like garden. That is why I joined wwoof.

I am moving to Australia for a year, seeking for new approaches to life. Since my goal is more to experience than to earn money, I thought wwoofing might be the perfect plan! I see this year as an opportunity to discover lifestyles, meet individualities and share experiences.

In my unplanned adventure in Australia, I would like to experience the pleasure of living sorrounded by nature and being in touch with animals. I think the fact of exchanging my labor for food and a ceiling makes us go back to the simple life, what will enrich my perspectives for sure. A collegue told me about this platform and her experience when telling her about my intentions to go to Australia, so this is how I knew about WWOOF.

I would like to be part of an amazing adventure. I would like to learn more on agricultural topics. I am also eager to help people i work with and with whom i share the same values and sustainability interest.

I joined because I think it's a good opportunity to experience something different from the work I do in Switzerland. I'm motivated to do some volunteering work, helping and supporting projects. I think also that the experience woofing is something unique for myself brings maybe also a new perspective of seeing and understanding things in the daily life in a different way and I'm sure that the encounters with different people will be so valuable as well.

I’m joining woof to experience new environments and develop my skills while discovering a new pathway for my future. I hope to meet new people, form friendships, challenge myself find peace in new work and play.
