We are a small-scale family farm located in the Swan Valley, just 25 minutes from Perth. Our main focus is animal husbandry, with cattle, sheep, pigs, and chickens that we care for daily. Alongside this, we grow a variety of seasonal fruit and vegetables and bake wood-fired bread, all of which we sell at our weekend farmers market.

My own abilites and personal skill-set has been able to grow immensely throughout these experiences. I have enjoyed roaming nomadically for almost a decade now. An unexpected and wild solo expedition that has lead me to become the capable and confident woman that I am today.

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.

Linking volunteers with organic farmers and growers to promote cultural and educational experiences Mission Statement WWOOF is a worldwide movement linking volunteers with organic farmers and growers to promote cultural and educational experiences based on trust and non-monetary exchanges, helping to build a sustainable global community.

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

What better way to learn about a new place than to get to know its land and its people? I am joining WWOOF AU to make connections, pursue my interests in food/environment, and hopefully learn a couple new skills. I hope to one day have property of my own to raise food, so I’m trying to learn some skills to make that happen, such as animal care/meat/dairy, veggie and fruit production, bee keeping, and earthen/sustainable structure, and medicinal plant knowledge. Extra points if you have some cool recipes you can teach me 🙂

We are looking for up to 2 people to help feed cattle and sheep, and a handyman that would like to do some building work such as fencing and putting up a new shed. We have 1000 acres of native vegetation, 4500 acres of grazing country for farming & bee keeping, with red undulating soil. Volunteering on our farm includes sheep & cattle stock work, farm chores, fencing, organic gardening, milking cows, tending sheep, chickens & turkeys, pruning trees and whatever else needs doing. Depending on the seasons we need help with baby  calves, cows to be milked by hand and bee hives that need to be expanded. No experience necessary but preferred, we will show you what to do! Currently we need help with cutting fire wood around the property as winter here in Australia is around the corner, this will consist of 3 to 4 hours per day and can help get you some pocket money and also experience the land. I also have bee hives that need some attention and some gardening in our orchard. Please get in touch with us today. Looking forward to hearing from you. Happy Days. If you are interested in learning something new and getting to know what life on an Australian Farm is like, you are more than welcome to stay with us.  Come and experience star gazing, fresh night time air, sit around a lovely fire pit during the colder months around great friends and also we have a fun happy pool room to have lots of fun and laughs together.    

I joined WWOOF because I want to experience authentic farm life, learn from local hosts, and contribute in a meaningful way. It’s a great opportunity to connect with nature, meet inspiring people, and grow personally while helping out.

To see how people are taking care of themselves and others in different places in order to hopefully be 'self-reliant' or generally homestead someday on my own.

I'm hoping to gain more experience on farms/small holdings to learn more about sustainable agriculture and different techniques used. I'm also in-between jobs and not one to sit around doing nothing and would much rather be helping out with a someones garden or building project somewhere I'd also like to meet some more like minded people

What a good way to learn about the Australian culture than to leave with farmers! For us, WWOOF is a good exchange between our motivation to do things and your experience and knowledge. Besides, we can't stay in place, we always want to do something, give a hand and discover!

We want to travel Australia, experiencing its culture, meeting its people, and learning from them. WWOOF is a fantastic opportunity to stay with locals in beautiful places and learn new skills while contributing to environmentally-conscious projects. Jed would be interested to share knowledge with fellow beekeepers and learn how to grow wildflowers to support his bees as part of his developing apiary and buisness back in Scotland. I'm planning to do a PhD when I get home from Australia and am considering a move towards plant sciences/agriculture so it would be great to acquire some basic plant husbandry skills.

Wurrabinya is home to Ian, Harly, Mac (b 2014), Mia (b 2015), Pooch, our kelpie kid (pet dog), a pair of budgies, several chooks and assorted wildlife and occasionally Nina (b2004). We have a 1/4 hectare block about 30 mins from the CBD, in the lovely Adelaide Hills, where we run chickens and have a range of fruit and nut, and native trees which primarily feed the local lorikeets, rosellas and cockatoos. Volunteering tasks for WWOOFers: Equates to 25 hours a week for full food and board and includes weed control, garden maintenance and chicken care. Accommodation: is in our house and we eat together. Ian works full time in town and Harly works part time and is busy with Mac & Mia, so an ability to work by yourself is a bonus. Very happy to host two friends and /or partners. Harly prefers women WWOOFers or a couple.
