I like to work in rural areas and with nature. I like to develop something outside. Also I want to learn more about the outside work and develop new skills and passions.

We joined the WWOOFing experience because we want to be useful, giving a hand in the countryside. We want to learn about getting closer to the nature because we planned to buy our own property when we will be back home after our long journey. So for us, it’s the time to get knowledge because we want to get ready for our future. Beside that, it’s always a big pleasure to meet locals and to share stories.

Belted Galloway cattle farm in the southern highlands. We milk these cows, too - they love to be patted. We also raise chickens for breeding and eggs, have a Permaculture veggie garden, and have just planted hazelnut trees. We are at our next stage of bushfire recovery having completed fencing and felling some trees. There are many tasks still to do even though it has rained and looks green. We need to expand the permaculture areas, constant weeding, pruning fruit trees, planting bare rooted vines and transplanting fruit trees. We also maintain a small wildlife reserve on part of the farm and look at grasses to make sure that the wombats we co-exist with have enough to eat. Volunteer tasks include feeding chickens, tending veggie garden, moving cattle to strip graze, milking cows (in non drought situations), weeding, collecting firewood, composting & worm farming. Accomodation for 2 within our home. Shared meals, all cook together. Mixed diet. Vegetarians & vegans catered for. Children b.a. No smoking on property. Initial stay 12-14 days. Longer stays negotiable.

MOUNT MITCHELL is an historic farm in the central Victoria. Primarily we are a working farm, breeding sheep for both wool and meat, and growing some crops. The homestead and gardens create a beautiful space for events. We host weddings, group tours and open garden days on occasions. We endorse the paddock to plate concept and have an extensive vegetable garden and orchard. WWOOFer volunteering includes mowing, gardening, hedge trimming, sheep work, fencing, wood splitting, looking after farm animals & pets, machinery maintenance, painting, building & general farm and house maintenance. WWOOFers are accommodated in their own residence on the property. Some shared meals, or food provided to prepare your own meals. Prefer WWOOFers with stamina who are physically strong and fit. Extended stays are negotiable.

I joined WWOOF because I would love to meet and help hosts by living in their home. I think it is the best way to understand how people live and really getting into the culture of the country I am travelling in.

‘Yin Barun’ is located in the foothills of the high country 2 hours from Melbourne on the beautiful Broken River. It is a mixed farm with cherries, wine grapes, Lucerne, pumpkins, veg, pasture fed sheep & cattle as well as wild foraged culinary mushrooms. Volunteering is very diverse including wild mushroom identification; foraging, picking, packing, selling cherries, vineyard maintenance, pruning, harvesting, wine making and Melbourne deliveries. Also veg picking, weeding, propagation, sheep and cattle work, shearing and GFM. Please feel free to ask questions, in 2024 I was lucky enough to win the Australian Farmer of the year for diversity and sustainability so happy to share my knowledge and experiences. You can tour around the area with the farm being in close proximity to the Mountains. Accommodation for 3 in our home. Shared meals. Mixed diet, vegetarians & vegans catered for. No children. No smoking inside. Initial stay 2-4 weeks, longer stays negotiable..

For me, life is about exchanging energies and since i was young i dream about going to Australia. In the last few years gardening, organic food, living in nature became part of my life. I have a lot of interest in this kind of things. Now i have my own property in France that is totally off-grid. I want to learn more about how to create a land full of abundance through working together with nature and people. I heard about WWOOF and this seems the perfect opportunity to exchange skills in this kind of life-style. I am looking forward to see your way of living.

I joined WWOOF to gain some experience and knowledge in organic and regenerative farming so as to implement it on my own farm in the near future. Especially with cattle and other livestock.

We live on 4 acres (about 1.5 hectares) with our big friendly dog Elvis, our rescue tabby cat, a large vegetable garden, many different fruit trees, and livestock for meat and eggs (cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens). Ad works in IT from home and is pretty busy with that, so you will mainly be assisting Tinker with the farm work.  

I joined WWOOF because I want to experience Australian nature and everyday life in an authentic way. I prefer being outdoors rather than in big cities, and I’m excited to see Australian farms and small homesteads and support them with their daily work. I love working outside, learning new skills, and getting to know local people and their way of life.

WWOOF is perfect for us, as we want to do a "Great Lap" of Australia while still taking our time to meet people, learn new skills, and experience the natural wonders Australia has to offer! We want to have a homestead one day and are using our year in Australia as a way to hone in our skills and knowledge of this lifestyle, together!

Wonderful, tranquil, mostly organic 6 acres located on city fringe.

Five Oaks Farm is a small rose and olive farm located in the beautiful Sunshine Coast Hinterland. While it is not certified, organic principles and practices are used. The farm is home to two rescue horses and a beautiful dog. Koala habitat has been planted. The property is walking distance to Mapleton and close to Montville and Maleny. The Farm is strictly non-smoking. Accommodation is comfortable and the food is good.

🌱 Why I Joined WWOOF I joined WWOOF because I want to explore and understand the connection between nature, design, and sustainable living. I’m especially interested in landscape design and urban planning, and I believe working with plants and the land is essential for building beautiful and practical environments. WWOOF offers the chance to learn directly from people, nature, and experience—not just from books or classrooms. I hope to work closely with hosts who can teach me about gardening, building, landscaping, and farming, and who enjoy sharing knowledge, daily life, and conversation. I would be especially happy to hear from hosts who: Are open to sharing knowledge about gardening, landscaping, or building Enjoy cooking or sharing meals Like talking in English (even simple conversations help me improve!) Please feel free to message me. I reply quickly and am excited to meet kind and inspiring people!

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.

Hi, my name’s Grant, thanks for stopping by. I’ve been wwoofing around the world for over 10 years. I am now creating an opportunity to pay some of those amazing experiences forward by hosting wwoofers amongst the urban growing spaces I have set up and contribute to in Sydney’s inner west The nature of our location means I can only host people who already have an interest in small-scale non-commercial food growing

After working in Australia for over a month, I realized this wasn't the way I wanted to experience Australia. My original purpose was to see the world and improve my English. My main goal wasn't to earn money, until a fellow traveler told me about volunteering. So I decided to apply and see, even though I don't have much time left. I hope to truly experience the Australian way of life before leaving. Thank you.

Well, I want to transition to another kind of lifestyle. I want to quit the city at some point and be part of a more sustainable and connected environment. Or that's what I believe, but the truth is I haven't tried it yet.. Before quitting everything, I want to learn about permaculture and get my hands dirty. I would love to meet people leaving in an alternative way, learn from them and see how I feel.
