Our farm is half forest , half open clear land that we use to grow fruits ,nuts and a vegetable garden area to supply us with fresh food all year round .

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.

Come to Kongwak, the 'Valley of Peace', where over the last 20 years I have created a thriving permaculture garden on less than 2 acres, which provides our family and local community with fresh, organic produce and plants. I have also set up a small nursery In our little town, where we propagate and sell a range of native, indigenous, permaculture and edible plants and produce. The nursery is based at the popular Kongwak Market, where I have also established a community garden called the Secret Garden, where I run regular workshops about permaculture, composting, medicinal plants etc. Kongwak is a beautiful little village in the heart of South Gippsland, only 15mins from Korumburra, Wonthaggi, Inverloch and lovely beaches. We are about half an hour to Phiilip Island and one & a half hours to the magnificent Wilson's Promontory. We can provide accommodation to singles, couples or small groups of friends. We currently have a small dog & some chickens. Short and long term stays welcome!

We are a 25 year old permaculture designed bamboo garden full of useful and edible plants with comfortable self contained accomadation for 2 wwoofers with all the sevices and good wifi. We have many native animals on the property plus ducks chickens and a dog. We have also lots of quality fresh water

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 am in a unique gap of time before I start my new job in April. I want to make the most of this opportunity by doing something I've never done—and likely won't get the chance to do again until I retire. Since my new job is related to organic plants, I don't just want to sell them; I want to understand where they come from and experience the farm life for myself.

We have travelled much and had years working overseas. We find people of all cultures interesting and people who stay with us are treated like family. Volunteering is such things as making fences, gardening, making pathways, cutting firewood and generally keeping our 2 hectare property in order.

I hope that by living and interacting with you all, I can learn new values ​​and humanity and grow as a person.

I appreciate nature, simplicity, and the connection between people, the earth, and animals. I’m eager to meet those who understand and respect the land, learn how to plant and harvest, and work towards self-sufficiency.

I'm keen to get my hands dirty, laugh and learn; meeting like minded people and support local whilst on my travels. I'm a hard worker and can turn my hand to most jobs around the farm and learn as much as I can about different people and ways of life.

I’ve been thinking a lot about what I can do to contribute to the health of our planet. At the same time, I’ve also been trying to figure out what I truly love and what I want to do in life. I decided to apply for WWOOF because I believe it could give me some clues and inspiration to find the answers.

A small domestic farm on a beautiful property, surrounded by bush, bordering National Park and close to beaches. Our animals are part of the family - dog, chooks and a small beef herd - all with names and a story. The vegie garden and orchard are productive and always in need of tending. Much of our food is homegrown or locally sourced and our diet is meaty, tasty and healthy. Volunteering includes work in pastures, weeding, raking, fencing, help in vegie garden and orchard, feeding animals, and small building projects. Own transport preferable to take advantage of the beautiful surrounding area. Caravan accommodation for a single or a couple. No children. Meat-based meals. Non-smokers only. Negotiable stays after first few days. Cannot take WWOOFers during winter.

Welcome, We are based in a suburb of Melbourne called The Basin. The Basin is situated at the foot of The Dandenong Ranges and is the gateway to The Yarra Valley. This farm and our home is 3.25 acres and we are starting from the ground up making garden beds, worm farms, watering systems and caring for our chooks. We have a Horse Drawn Carriage business that operates from our home property. The horses are stabled here when in work and some general horse care may be required at times. Accommodation is in a self-contained unit detached from the family home. It has a separate bathroom and toilet, queen size bed, TV and kitchenette. We also have a property of 110 acres situated in Glenburn, which is 62 kms away. The farm has been neglected by its previous owner, so is quite run down. I drive to the property daily to care for the cattle, sheep and horses that graze there. We are aiming to make this property as biodynamic as possible. We are making our own compost, worm tea, and compost teas to improve the land. Fencing and building of sheds is the big startup jobs underway. In summary we are close to Melbourne City, The Yarra Valley, Dandenong Ranges, Public Transport and we have a lovely Village, hosting coffee shops, bottle shop and pubs.

Our experience and backrounds give us a general picture about work and responsability. We know that your house is not a hostel and it's the reason why we try wwoofing. We aim to learn something new, help you, visit new places, meet people and be a part of a daily life. We believe to be sociable and enthusiastic as individuals and couple as well. PS: If you want to know anything more, don' t hesitate to contact us! (Yes, it´s the same you can read in section About us. We think it´s the best summary about us)

Our project is 90 acres of bush and fields in upland granite country near Stanthrope. Our community has about 13 members, some families, some single. The project was started in the mid 1970s by families and yoga monks intent on a lifestyle of all round wellbeing - physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, community, environmental. This is still the ethos. Since our foundation almost 50 years ago, farming here has been organic and chemical free. At various times we have had certification, including Bio-dynamic. Now, myself. I'm Dada Jitendrananda, a monk in the yoga tradition, and I look after the project. I love having wwoofers for the energy, help, good vibes, cultural richness and festivity they bring. I organise regular 2 week long working bee / meditation & yoga retreats that are great events of fun and development.

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.

Like my bio points to, I got super burnt out spending long periods behind a computer after the nonprofit I helped found took off. I felt a really strong pull to get outside, get my hands dirty, and get my body moving again. I spent the last year in NZ working and volunteering in various ag industries; I found my best, some of them life-long, connections through WWOOF, so I knew I had to join WWOOF in Australia too!

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.
