Because I want to learn what a farm life is like and to communicate with foreign people in foreign country. I have grown and live in Osaka, the urban city, so I didn't have much opportunities to do much farming. However my grandfather is a non commercial faramer and he has a small field. But, as he gets older, it is hard for him to work in the field, so I started to help him a little. And, I felt the joy of growing vegetables and being in contact with nature. I have no skills of farming, but I thought to challenge fariming. I wanted to study abroad in the university,but I am busy studying and job hunting and other activities. But, I liked to talk with foreign students through the experience of internatinal intersection community. So I want to experience to live in foreign countries. Through WWOOF, I want to learn farming and living abroad.

🌱 Why I Joined WWOOF I joined WWOOF because I want to explore and understand the connection between nature, design, and sustainable living. I’m especially interested in landscape design and urban planning, and I believe working with plants and the land is essential for building beautiful and practical environments. WWOOF offers the chance to learn directly from people, nature, and experience—not just from books or classrooms. I hope to work closely with hosts who can teach me about gardening, building, landscaping, and farming, and who enjoy sharing knowledge, daily life, and conversation. I would be especially happy to hear from hosts who: Are open to sharing knowledge about gardening, landscaping, or building Enjoy cooking or sharing meals Like talking in English (even simple conversations help me improve!) Please feel free to message me. I reply quickly and am excited to meet kind and inspiring people!

I decided to join the WWOOF program because I wanted to experience life in a different country and learn how people live close to nature. I’ve always been interested in farming and sustainable living, and I think working and living on a farm will be a wonderful opportunity to learn new things and grow as a person. I also wanted to join WWOOF because I love meeting new people and learning about different cultures. I believe that staying with a host family is the best way to experience local life, improve my English, and make real connections with people. I’m really excited to help with daily farm work, learn from you, and share my culture as well. I hope to be a positive part of your family and make great memories together during my stay. Thank you for welcoming me into your home!

To take part in an exchange of my labour for cultural and technical learning. I enjoy gardening and working outdoors. To make my extended holiday less mundane. Maybe to help me be less afraid of coming across snakes and spiders in Australia.

I joined WWOOF through American Institute of Foreign Studies (AIFS) and am interested in learning about life on Australian Organic & Permaculture farms and learning about growing and producing organically.

It gives me a lot of peace and satisfaction to deal with animals. I enjoy caring for them, observing their behavior and making sure they feel comfortable and safe.I used to ride horses for almost 2 years. It was great interacting with the horses and working with them. Dealing with animals helps me relax and gives me a sense of responsibility and satisfaction. I also think it is important to learn where our food comes from and how it is produced. Learning about growing vegetables and other products really appeals to me, because I enjoy eating tasty and healthy food. By understanding how food is grown in a sustainable and responsible way, I can be more conscious about what I eat while increasing my knowledge about nature. For me, caring for animals and enjoying good food is a way to relax and enjoy everyday life.

Pesticide-free Blueberry and Waratah farm in the picturesque Yarra Valley. Around 80km east of Melbourne - just follow the Yarra River to our farm. A compact but beautiful farm, you will feel at ease as soon as you arrive. We have endless jobs and would welcome a helping hand to get us through this very productive blueberry season. If you fancy a stint on a blueberry farm, please contact me.  Picking is in the mornings, followed by packing and delivery. It is all weather dependent.

I joined WWOOF because I want to experience Australia in a more grounded and authentic way. Instead of just traveling through the country, I want to become part of daily life, learn from people who are connected to their land, and see the country beyond just tourism. I’m excited to support hosts with whatever work is needed, learn new skills, and meet people who live close to nature. WWOOF feels like the perfect opportunity to exchange help for knowledge, to grow as a person, and to build genuine relationships.

I enjoy being outdoors and want to learn more about it and how nature works - especially in Australia, where so much is new for me. That's why I want to try WOOFing. I'm also interested in cultural exchange. Although I grew up on a farm with cows, my knowledge about is rather basic. I'm really looking forward to expanding my knowledge of nature and farming.

I'm interested in moving in a more rural place to stay in contact with nature and avoid the city rush, meet new people, and start the period of the 88 days of work to renew my WHV.

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.

For me this time in Australia is about getting to know myself and the world better, so I want to step outside of everything I am used to and gain new skills and see what I am actually capable off. There is so much more.

I would like to join WWOOF in Australia because I am very interested in learning about Australian agriculture and sustainable farming practices. I believe that by working directly on farms, I can gain hands-on experience and deepen my understanding of the land, crops, and lifestyle in rural Australia. Another reason is that I would like to stay in Australia for a longer period of time and travel around different regions. WWOOF offers a unique opportunity to explore many areas while being part of local communities, rather than just being a tourist. Finally, I am eager to meet people from different backgrounds and cultures. I believe cultural exchange is one of the most valuable experiences in life, and I would love to share my own culture while learning from hosts and fellow WWOOFers. I am excited to contribute, learn, and grow through this program.

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.

I joined WWOOF because I want to be in places where I can feel meaningful and make a real contribution. WWOOF seems like the perfect way to do that — combining learning, community, and hands-on experience. I’d love to learn more about Australian culture, improve my farming skills, and enjoy the experience while giving my best and helping wherever I can. I believe the best way to learn and connect is by working together and having fun at the same time.
