I found WWOOF through my work and travel Organisation Aifs. I like the concept of this Organisation and as I am very interested in working on a farm, I joined WWOOF

To have the opportunity to experience many new things, to live in different places in Australia, and who better than with Australians to discover this country! We also want to improve our English skills. The principle of WWOOFing suits us perfectly — a mutually beneficial exchange that promises only great adventures!

I’ve heard from multiple friends who have done it that it’s an amazing experience, you make a difference, you’re well looked after and you meet amazing people whilst doing it. We are hard workers and love helping out where we can.

I want to spend some time doing honest, hands-on work and pick up new skills along the way. I feel like I am wasting my time and WWOOF is exactly what I was looking for.

I am a retired Chef and Didier is a climate change scientist, check us out on Google Earth. We offer great food (sorry no special diets) with interesting conversation in a beautiful valley within bike riding distance of Cygnet and the beach. We offer advice on purchasing your own property, cookery, charcuterie-in autumn, market gardening, cookery, preserving, cider making and animal husbandry. We farm organically and try to live as sustainably as possible, we employ principles of permaculture. Volunteering includes feeding poultry & animals, planting, weeding, mowing, compost making, brewing, fencing, occasional animal slaughter (only if you are interested) and processing & General Farm Maintenance. Accommodation for 2 singles within our home, or a couple in our caravan attached to the house, see the picture. Shared meals, mixed diets. Can P/U from Cygnet any day or Hobart by arrangement if flight arrives before 3pm between Tues-Thurs. Please don't come to us directly from overseas or if you are ill, as I am in the high risk group for respiratory problems. WWOOFers must be prepared to work independently at times. No smokers. Minimum stay 2 weeks. We prefer longer stays by WWOOFers with a genuine interest in agriculture. Initial contact by email, please. WiFi unlimited. If no answer leave a message slowly, stating your name and number and we will get back to you. We want to leave our land in a lot better state than we found it. We are supporters of the Tasmanian Land Conservancy and The Bob Brown Foundation which both preserve old growth forests and special areas of value to flora, fauna and eco-systems. In the long term we are looking for someone to park a tiny house on the property and take over all the gardens, land and animals to allow us more freedom to travel and spend time with our families but still have somewhere to call home.

My boyfriend and I are on a working holiday visa, looking to work and live in Australia for a while. WWOOFING seemed to be the perfect opportunity for us to settle in, meet some people and get to know the environment that we would eventually like to do paid work in. We have plenty of energy to give back in return! We are very enthousiast about engaging in biological and eco-farming in particular and any linked social activities.

30 acre lifestyle property with land reserved for wildlife located in a secluded, picturesque spot opposite the Toomuc Valley Creek on an unmade road with access to state forests and walking tracks. Equestrian facilities: stables, tack up area, riding menage, agisted horses and one dam. Property is on tank water. Back bush paddock is a home to kangaroos, wallabies, echidnas, magpies, cockatoos, rainbow lorikeets and kookaburras. There are also feral deer on the property. Located 15 minutes from a metropolitan train line to Melbourne's CBD. Host will facilitate drop off and picks ups to the train station for an easy day trip to the city. Wwoofers have their own bedroom with king-single bunk beds including comfortable mattresses and bathroom with a separate toilet. Comfortable 4 bedroom house with an open fire, air conditioning in main living area, fans in bedrooms and a verandah with beautiful views of the valley and established native trees. Beautiful Kilcunda Beach is only 45 mins away and there are several local wineries and an apple orchard which has a cafe. Wwoofers always enjoy a visit to the local animal sanctuary where one can cuddle wombats and often young kangaroos.

The reason why I try to do WWOOF is that I’d like to have an opportunity to stay with people in different culture and work in a farm. And I’d like to make friends who are from different countries and talk about different cultures.

Organically certified farm and plant Nursery, we have a large Community farm , walking distance to town, shops and Pub

Now, I study how agriculture impacts the environment, but it is difficult to gain experiments in farming at my university. Therefore, I want to learn eco-friendly farming methods by working with actual farmers. I also want to enjoy Australian life 🙂

When traveling I like to get out of the city as fast as possible and start exploring the culture. I believe that wwoofing is a great way to see the real Australian culture and also to gain interesting experiences

Our 24 acre property is located in South West Victoria approx. 3 hrs by train from Melbourne. We have a wide range of small animals, birds and pets to look after, veggie gardens and an orchard.  I am a registered Counsellor and operate a horse riding school that specializes in working with both children and adults with disabilities and or mental health issues. Horses provide the vehicle for self-discovery and personal growth. Our visitors are encouraged to participate in all aspects of our daily lives, activities include gardening (if you like gardening), grooming and caring for our 20 horses, riding horses (depending on experience), assisting clients with riding lessons and their equine based experiences. Our visitors must be confident, reliable horse people, love animals & the outdoors. Accommodation for 1- bungalow attached to house. Shared meals. Initial stay 1 week then negotiable. Most of our visitors choose a longer stay. Sorry cannot sign second visa. We love to share our lifestyle with visitors and enjoy meeting new people.

“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.

In 2026, we are planning to use our LSL and take our family on the road around Australia. A big part of this trip will be education for our kids (who will be aged 5-11 in 2026). We think working on different types of farms will be a great, practical, hands-on way to learn a lot about our food and our country, and connect in with the local community. We also think it will be a great opportunity for them (and us) to develop confidence and skills that city kids don't often get much of a chance at. In addition, we're really interested in sustainable farming practices like regenerative agriculture.

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.

I joined WWOOF because I wanted to step outside of my familiar surroundings in Germany and truly immerse myself in a different culture. Traveling can sometimes feel distant or superficial, but WWOOF offers the chance to live and work alongside locals, which to me feels much more authentic and meaningful. A friend recommended the program, and the more I learned about it, the more I felt it aligned with what I was looking for. I’m especially drawn to eco-friendly farming and sustainable lifestyles. Instead of a commercial or tourist-oriented experience, I hope to contribute to something more grounded: working with the land, learning practical skills, and being part of daily life. I see WWOOFing as not just a way to travel, but also as a way to grow personally, gain new perspectives, and connect with people who value community and the environment.

Winton is an old estate with a rich history currently being restored and renovated by us. 30 mins from Hobart and the Airport. Winton is 14 acres - a mixture of historic fruit trees, plantings and acreage for rescue animals - pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, and the like to do their stuff.

Chores vary seasonally: picking, weeding, feeding animals, restoring cars & old tractors. Accomodation either in our home or self contained flat. Children b.a. Meals with family, plenty of good food. We take our WWOOFers on a nocturnal safari to see kangaroos, emus, foxes, rabbits, owls & quail. See scorpions, Red-back spiders & lizards, etc. Also kayaking on the river. Star gazing, ride the quad motorbike, drive the tractor, go fishing, swimming or play pool. No smoking inside. Daily bus service from Adelaide & interstate to Waikerie. Here is a story written by a wonderful French WWOOFer Lény Gourven who visited us in 2013, we still keep in touch! WWOOFers Shay and Dean visited and made a video series about their WWOOFing journey around Australia. Here is the episode on our farm 🙂
