I grew up in the New Zealand countryside, so not a stranger to rural life, but as an adult have travelled and lived overseas for significant periods, but looking to put roots down in Australia. I would like to get to know the people of rural Australia and experience the lifestyle away from the hustle and bustle of cities and the consumptive lifestyle.

Come and join volunteering with us at Glenview Alpaca Farm! Here everyone is valued and so all our animals have a name! We give them a whole lot of love and they give it back to us! Come and meet our alpacas, emus, chickens and goats, also dogs and peacocks! We love sharing and caring for animals and nature, so if you share the same love, we can't wait to meet you at Glenview Alpaca Farm!

I joined WWOOF in hopes of developing my skill set further and learning more about organic farming practices. Growing up on a small berry farm, I feel most at home and comfortable working in a farm setting. I was excited to learn about WWOOF because it is such a great way to learn deeper about different farming techniques around the world, while meeting new people and having the opportunity to share knowledge and experience.

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.

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.

Red Hill - these were the early years of the wine industry in a region full of export quality apple orchards. Cool climate, slow ripening late season fruit was the impetus for producing this region's Method Champenoise in 1990 and a second example in 1992. Late disgorging, is financially difficult - especially during the Keating years when overdrafts attracted 18pc interest. Much hard work & some difficult decisions, enabled one to weather that economic storm. Now on the NW coast of Tasmania sits a 5acre property. The soil is a rich, fertile, naturally deep of a brown to red colour. While beef cattle & sheep(meat) are grazed extensively, dairy cattle are also prominent.We have one, just a km away. Its milk goes to Cadbury. My house has a tank to collect rain. 16 solar panels are on the roof. A bore provides year round, potable water, for irrigation of a Mediteranian vegetable garden. A small established orchard provides apples, pears, lemons, red grapes, Quince, kiwifruit & white peaches. So come experience spring & summer in ELLIOTT. Yes Real caffe. No smokers please. Children by arrangement

I decided to join WWOOFing because I truly believe it’s one of the best and most meaningful ways to get involved, learn new things, and experience life from a different angle — especially when it comes to farming and ecology. For me, it’s the most effective and genuine way to gain insight into how people work with nature and live sustainably. I’m more than happy to work and contribute in exchange for the chance to learn directly from those who have real experience and knowledge in this field. I also really like the spirit behind the whole concept — it carries a kind of optimism and humanity that I find inspiring. Maybe that sounds a little sentimental, but to me, it represents something real and hopeful: people helping each other, sharing skills, and connecting through meaningful work. Another reason is that I want to balance my academic life with practical experience. While my studies in English and Philosophy teach me a lot about ideas and perspectives, WWOOFing gives me the chance to learn from life itself — from the source, so to speak. I think it would be difficult to gain that kind of knowledge in any other way. My stay in Australia is something I expect to be deeply meaningful — not just for my career, but for my personal growth as well. I don’t want to just walk the well-trodden paths or experience the country as a tourist. I want to do something different, something a bit unusual, and hopefully make a small, positive difference — however small it may be.

We are a hobby farm on the edge of suburbia in Mariginiup and just 37km north of Perth.

I think WWOOF is the perfect opportunity to stay short term in a job. It gives the chance to see a little bit more of the real daily life of the Australians. The working fields can be really flexible which makes it even more challenging and interesting!

I’m a university student and majoring in agriculture and ecology, so I want to work in various farms. In addition, I want to enjoy the unique culture, scenery, and cuisine that can be experienced in Australia. Through working as a WWOOFer, I want to not only deepen my knowledge of agriculture, but also improve my English skill. I’d like to make friends who are from different countries and talk about a variety of things.

Small Organic Homestead, in Otways, Great Ocean Road region of southern rural Victoria.

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!

We have a beautiful 40 acre horse agistment property, veggie garden & fruit trees and approx. 5 acres bush. 3 min drive to surf beach, bay beach & Inverloch town or 10 min drive to Wonthaggi, a larger town. Push bikes available. About 15 to 20 minutes to the beach and town by bike. We are very interested in living a sustainable lifestyle and hope that our WWOOFers are also interested in living sustainably and learning, and sharing knowledge of this. There are almost always wallabies and kangaroos at our farm and if you are lucky you may see echidnas, wombats & occasional koalas. Volunteering may include harvesting, fertilizing, pollinating, composting, mulching, hay carting, weeding, fencing, planting, food preservation, and other jobs as they become available.  Sometimes there is some work caring for horses: often all the work is in the garden and paddock maintenance, as the horses are mainly looked after by their owners. Accommodation for up to 3 in our home, although we usually prefer 2. Shared meals, cook together. We eat a healthy, sustainable diet.  Bron is vegan and while Ray eats most foods, many meals are vegan or vegetarian.  Vegetarians & vegans catered for.  No children, no smoking, all stays negotiable on application. Please let us know your available dates when you apply and the length of time that you would like to WWOOF here. (1 to 2 weeks preferred).

50 Acres on the Orara river with stone and timber house. Guesthouse, dance floor and composting toilets. Off grid solar, own water supply and peaceful quiet property only 30 minutes from town.

We are looking for new experiences and meeting interesting people. We are travelling around Australia and want to stop and experience some of the many different regions of this great country that we haven’t had the chance to get to know yet.

40 acres in wombat nation park near Daylesford Victoria Australia. As I get older I really need some garden help and is time to pass on my knowledge of the earth and gardening to others.

  ABSOLUTELY NO SMOKING OR VAPEING ON THE PROPERTY. I prefer to breathe clean air. Read again so you are sure. PLEASE DO NOT BRING PERFUMED PRODUCTS [SHAMPOO, CONDITIONER ,BODY WASH , SOAP ,SUNSCREEN] I can supply an alternative. I have become highly sensative to "perfumed products" .People have not been getting the first message on my profile so PLEASE DO NOT BRING ANY BODY OR HAIR CLEANING PRODUCTS. I WILL SUPPLY THEM FOR YOU.    If there is someone interested in a long term place to live and learn about organic farming, I am open to that. There are areas of usable land that I'm not really able to keep up with, so they could be yours for growing"whatever" to make some income.  Please read section 7 of the guidelines for Wwoofers and understand it. Hi All you lovely WWOOFers. I'm especially looking for some long term people if they are around. I've been very fortunate to live in this beautiful part of Tasmania for 30 years and just love being able to share it with people from all over the world. There is 19 ha of farm to care for [some bush, pastures and extensive fruit and vegetable gardens]. Then there's millions of ha of stunning mountain and alpine wilderness to explore right behind the farm. Please come and enjoy life for a while. I prefer people to stay at least  one month and have a genuine interest in learning about sustainable farming and living.

Our Place:  We (Jane and Aaron) are hosting a tiny experience from Australian miniature goats, miniature donkeys, miniature ponies (Pepper and Spice) and Aussie White sheep. The hobby farm is situated at Copping, SE coast of Tasmania en route to Port Arthur and 20 minutes from rural town, Sorell.  5 minutes from our place is beautiful beach Marion Bay beach. The property is a mix of pasture, trees and small vegie gardens. There is a tiny home that is used as an Airbnb and a family friendly cottage that we are renovating at present. The farm has 1 friendly border collie. What we offer and what is involved:  We would like to share our time and your time spending with the animals and helping to keep the farm maintained so the animals have the best home possible. This involves brushing the animals, (more like a scratch) hanging out with the animals to aid in human contact, feeding, manure picking up, gardening, pasture management, weeding and general odd jobs. If your a competent horse rider this would be an advantage. Accommodation:  There is a fully equipped bus (shower +toilet+ oven+sink+ queen bed), modern design, dry and tidy.   Plenty of storage and your own garden if your stay is long term.  

I decided to pause my career to pursue personal growth and embrace meaningful, valuable work in Australia on a Working Holiday Visa 462. While exploring options that meet the requirements for a second WHV, the opportunity to WWOOF felt so special. Living on a farm and experiencing the cultural exchange—understanding how people live, what they value, and how they connect to their land and community—is so rare and beautiful, and nothing feels more enticing to us right now.
