I joined WWOOF because I want to combine my passion for horses with the opportunity to meet new people and experience different cultures. I’m excited to work on Australian farms, gain practical experience with horses, and at the same time explore the country. For me, WWOOF is the perfect way to expand my skills, actively contribute, and gain exciting insights into farm life as well as Australian culture.

I joined WWOOF because I was looking for a way to explore as much of Australia as possible in an affordable and meaningful way. I really want to meet locals, learn how people live here, and experience the country beyond the usual tourist spots. Many people recommended WWOOF to me, and the idea of exchanging work for knowledge, community, and real cultural experiences sounded perfect.

The opportunity to work in a completely different field and meeting new people made us join wwwoof. Also we know from relatives and friends and their experiences how amazing and interesting it is - so we'd also love to try it.

We're a small family living on a 3-acre homestead property on the rural NW coast of Tasmania. We produce a portion of our own food throughout the year from our orchard, berry patch, hothouse, vegetable garden and chickens. Our property can offer a good general exposure to a wide variety of regenerative, sustainable and resilient practices. We welcome short and long stays.

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!

I joined WWOOF because I want to learn not only about farming but also about how people live. I hope to improve my English through everyday communication and life on the farm.

To find volunteering opportunities while in Australia - particularly in wildlife/animal care, plant nursery work and similar. To experience less touristy parts of the country and get to know other vollies with similar interests. It can be a good mix in the right vollie house.

I joined WWOOF because I think it's a great way to experience the beauty of nature in the country. I usually live the city life so I want to experience something completely different! I'm interested in learning about life in nature, farming, nature conservation, wildlife and daily activities on the land.

We have a large suburban block in a beautiful seaside area adjacent to Park Beach, a popular surf Beach.

I am an artist and live in a large suburban home on the corner of a main road. There are 4 people living here at the moment (2 tenants, my adult son and myself). I work as a freelance artist with ongoing deadlines, and also spend every evening with my 101 year old mother (who lives across the road in an Aged Care facility).  With all this, I am very time-poor, and most meals are seperate due to my unconventional hours. But I am very happy for you to cook or join me when I’m having a meal 🙂 You need to be able to work unsupervised and have an open mind, and be prepared for a different experience as it is not the typical wwoofing framework. Volunteering includes help with vegetable garden (weeding, composting, planting, mulching, watering plants) and general gardening, odd jobs around the house and help with various art projects. Also, on nice days I would appreciate if you could sometimes take my mother out into the sunshine). Accommodation is for 1 or 2 people in guest room or cosy converted garage. Mixed diet. The work hours =  4 hours a day (with flexibility), with one or two days off a week. After working you are very welcome to spend time exploring the city which is a half an hour train ride. There is a local pool, cafés and shopping centres nearby. Life in our household is calm and relaxed and suits those who enjoy peace and quiet. 10 minute walk to train station and 25 min train ride to city. Cannot take WWOOFers from May - October.

I’d like to be helpful to others through my experiences. I think I can make use of my previous work experience on WWOOF . I also gain new experiences and grow further. I’m not a good English speaker but I try to improve my English skills.

Located in Old Beach, approximately 25 minutes from Hobart, our hobby farm offers a tranquil retreat where you can experience the best of rural living with convenient access to the city. Having relocated here seven years ago, we have cultivated a sustainable garden that is a haven for native birds and is supporting our busy beehives. All hard work has been done and the focus now is on maintenance, improving the soil quality and enjoying the ever changing colours of happy plants. We are passionate about organic gardening and uphold a commitment to sustainable living practices.

I joined WWOOFing because I’m excited to learn as much as possible while exploring Australia in a meaningful and authentic way. I really enjoy working outdoors, especially with plants, and WWOOFing gives me the chance to gain hands-on experience directly from people who live and work on the land. I also appreciate the idea of cultural exchange and connecting with hosts who are passionate about what they do. For me, it’s not just about travelling—it’s about contributing, learning new skills, meeting inspiring people, and being part of something positive. WWOOFing feels like the perfect way to grow, help others, and discover new ways of living, all while sharing good moments along the way

I joined WWOOF because I have always had a passion for sustainable farming and food production. One day I hope to live off the grid and implement my own sustainable farming practices, such as biodynamics and permaculture. In addition to this, I am an avid wildlife enthusiast with the hope of pursuing wildlife conservation as a career. I am therefore particularly keen to volunteer with a host where I can gain experience in environmental recovery/regeneration work, and especially wildlife rescue & care of native Australian animals. I also chose Wwoofing because I want to meet and get to know like-minded people, and access ideas, opportunities, and inspiration.

I am visiting Australia to see my younger sister who lives in Sydney. I have always wanted to visit Tasmania and I am really interested in staying with some locals during my time, to help and share my knowledge and to meet people from Australia. I enjoy keeping busy and I want to help people with their gardens/land/growing or whatever it may be. I’m always keen to learn more and see different techniques toward organic growing. I enjoy learning more about fruit and veg growing, I hope to have an allotment of my own some day.

The farm I’m living on wanted to have the security of the wwoofing insurance. I would like to also invite other wwoofers to come and join me here to practice living this way and host them at the cottage we are living in.

Is 40 acre property with approximately 20 acres dedicated to bush and completely off-grid located at the southern end of the glorious Mornington Peninsula, about 80 kms south of Melbourne. Emphasis is on land regeneration after the property had been subject to intensive grazing and land clearing. Currently trialing biochar production methods to enhance the sandy nutrient deficient soil. Accomodation is available through a separate unit built within the main shed that could be fully self contained if desired. Our immediate area enjoys open surf beaches, National Parks and hiking trails, golf courses, wineries and an opportunity to sit back and relax.

We joined WWOOF to gain lived experience participating more actively in the natural world! We are keen to learn alternative ways of living and incorporate nature into our lifestyles.
