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.

I am not intending to be a full time commercial farmer in the near future, as I enjoy my current profession. However, I do want to be able to grow my own food, as well as make a bit of secondary income. While in Australia, it is difficult to progress my professional career much because of Visa restrictions, but doing WWOOF will definitely help me learn skills and gain experience for secondary life goals.

I’m joining WWOOFing because I want to connect with people on a meaningful level, learn more about the Australian lifestyle, and experience everyday life in a different setting. I’m curious to understand how others live, work, and see the world. For me, WWOOFing is a great way to exchange ideas, learn new skills, and contribute in a hands-on way. I’m excited to be part of daily routines, help where I can, and share stories along the way. It’s not just about traveling—it’s about building connections and learning from others through real-life experiences.

I'm joinning WWOOF because I'm looking for a unique experience with real moments of sharing. I want to do things I would never have the chance to do in France, improve my English, and discover new cultures and ways of living. I’m 22, and I want to live many meaningful experiences, this is just the beginning!

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.

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!

I joined WWOOF because I wanted to step outside of my familiar surroundings in Germany and truly immerse myself in a different culture. Traveling can sometimes feel distant or superficial, but WWOOF offers the chance to live and work alongside locals, which to me feels much more authentic and meaningful. A friend recommended the program, and the more I learned about it, the more I felt it aligned with what I was looking for. I’m especially drawn to eco-friendly farming and sustainable lifestyles. Instead of a commercial or tourist-oriented experience, I hope to contribute to something more grounded: working with the land, learning practical skills, and being part of daily life. I see WWOOFing as not just a way to travel, but also as a way to grow personally, gain new perspectives, and connect with people who value community and the environment.

I would like to join WWOOFing in Australia to embrace new experiences, connect with diverse people, and develop skills while traveling. Ready for the adventure!

I joined WWOOF in hopes of becoming more experienced for my school studies of agriculture and natural resources as well as travel. I love the idea of farming and would love to gain some experience and I feel as if this is the best way to do it!

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).

Our beautiful 5 acre berry farm is located in Victoria's Central Highlands region near the renowned spa town of Daylesford. We have rich volcanic soils and are nestled on a high plain that is dotted with small extinct volcanos. We use regenerative farming techniques (permanent raised beds, heavy mulching, integrating native flora etc) to produce summer berries (blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and strawberries) as well as garlic for sale at local farmers markets. We also make a range of artisanal products in our commercial kitchen including smoked garlic and a range of jams and chutneys. We can offer quality accommodation in our well appointed barn conversion (you will have your own kitchen and bathroom) and lots of tasty organic produce. We (Ben and Rachel) both went wwoofing in our 20s and we look forward to providing quality wwoof experiences to a new generation of travelers, as well as giving our two young children the opportunity to meet people from different parts of the world. When we aren't farming we are often bushwalking, bike riding, camping and exploring local festivals.

We live on a 5 acre rural block in Yapeen, Central Victoria. Yapeen is a great mix of quiet countryside within easy access to the historic goldfields and artistic hub of Castlemaine. We are owner builders of a unique, off grid house. Our block has a diversity of native grasses, some large remnant trees, an abundance of reptiles and birds, resident frogs and visiting kangaroos.

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.

We are located in the beautiful Yarra Valley just outside Melbourne, Australia.  The area is renowned for it's wineries and natural features such as Mt Donna Buang, waterfalls and the meandering Yarra River.  We run a wildlife shelter, caring for small numbers of native wildlife.  Predominantly kangaroos and possums.

Recently I have lost my love for arboriculture and I am taking a break to try and figure out what direction I would like my life to take. I am looking to connect with people through WWOOFing to try and figure out what might be next for me and to learn some new life skills.

Winton is an old estate with a rich history currently being restored and renovated by us. 30 mins from Hobart and the Airport. Winton is 14 acres - a mixture of historic fruit trees, plantings and acreage for rescue animals - pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, and the like to do their stuff.

We live on approximately 2 acres of land in the Adelaide Hills, comprising of three adjoinng blocks. Together, the property has a range of vegetable gardens, an orchard, chicken runs, worm farms, bee hive and native vegetation. We have been working on permaculture principles to create a property that produces a range of food, works in harmony with the native vegetation of the area and assists in its revegetation, minimises waste, stores and uses water efficiently, and more. Produce grown on the property is both eaten fresh and preserved. There are currently many projects taking place on the property, from building dry stone walls, constructing shedding for firewood supplies, revegetating creek lines, and erecting an anti-avery.

Aside from the fact that I love digging in the dirt, I would love to get some hands on experience in farming, gardening, and caring for animals so that I can one day have my own farm to share all of these things I've learned with others.
