• A other German engineer had recommended this Plattform to get in touch with the locals. He sad: if you want to work longer and can give a hard hand then go with wwoof. So, I’m use to it to trust my feelings after a conversation. It was a very nice guy and here I am. I would love to prof myself and my abilities. And as I sad: Stay a bit longer on one area and I really like to give a hand where it’s needed. Looking forward to hear from you.

I've joined WWOOF because I have recently graduated from uni and am now seeking new adventures, skill sets, and connections with amazing people and places.

I am taking a long slow trip up down and around the east coast and would like to experience both large and small scale agricultural systems. Engaging with socially responsible people and produces to enable - A desire to learn and further develop my abilities first hand from people and places. To contribute to something meaningful and more sustainable in the big picture. I love soil! I dislike the word dirt in reference to soil.

Acacia Grove Health Education Centre is a 5 acre, Permaculture designed farm. there are approx. 350 orchard trees and a large vegetable garden. It is situated 50km west of Townsville in north Queensland, 400m above sea level, on the Great Dividing Range. The mountain air is cooler than on the coast.

I am Australian and love Australia more than any other part of the world, I want to travel around Australia so l can explore its Beauty, meet interesting people and pay my way while working and supporting our Farmers.

For our 12 month van trip it seems like a great way to learn some practical skills and see some different ways of doing things that maybe we could incorporate into our own little garden at home. We would love to start keeping bees and chooks in our yard to start 'closing the loop' in our backyard.

I'm turning my life towards a healthier path as I don't drink or smoke anymore and trying to be vegetarian. So learning about the farm lifestyle and and knowing what I could achieve learning from the hosts itself is exciting for me and a great place to start. I'd also like to have my own farm one day. That'll be ideal.

I have come to WWOOF in hopes to engage directly with positive ecology; an interest that is not limited to one form of practice. Through engagement with prominent and emerging farming practices, I hope to discover more techniques and strategies which may bring them together. I hope to find ways of balancing cash crop seasons with cover crops and rotational grazing. I hope to find ways of practising agroforestry with high biodiversity. I wish to learn about all aspects of farming; from the hunter-gather and permaculture skills from which we began, to the organic bio-dynamic agroforests to which we will go.

The farm is 100ha on the Orara River, 25 km south of Grafton, producing tea tree oil, timber and some garden fruit. Abundant wildlife, kangaroos at the house, swimming in the river. Work includes weeding, fencing, tree planting, machinery operation, building.& garden work. I am an eco-professional & sometimes work off farm so WWOOFers should be flexible but can also help with wildlife studies. Accom for 1-3 people in my home depending on space or camp. NSI. Can P/U from bus, train or airport.

I have had an interest in WWOOF for many years now and find it to be a brilliant way to explore and be submersed in another culture. I am joining to broaden my experiences traveling, create memories, and to be able to learn as much as possible about gardening by sustainable and organic methods. I think WWOOFing is also a great way to potentially make great lasting friendships.

I joined WWOOF through Work & Travel Company and am interested in learning about life on Australian Organic & Permaculture farms and learning about growing and producing organically.

Our beautiful lush valley is abundant with wildlife, creeks, dams and surrounded by bush ! Permaculture principles apply with the growing of our food, nourishment of the land, animals and ourselves.  

I joined WWOOF because I've tried one way of living and I want to try something new now. I feel a very strong urge to experience a different way of living. I want to experience working on farms. I sometimes help a friend of mine at his property doing odd jobs and that made me realise that I enjoy working outside in nature and now I would like to do it more and learn skills required to work at farms. And while doing that, meet and connect with different people. Another reason is that, even though I've been living in Australia for a while, I still feel like I haven't seen it at all. I want to travel around this country and live in different places and have different experiences altogether.

To learn new skills and meet likeminded people

I joined WWOOF because I think it's a good way to get much new experiences, getting connected to people, learn a lot about Australia and hopefully about myself. It is great to help people with some work and get accommodation and food. And to be honest it´s nice if you have not that much money to travel.
