Activities over the next 3 months: maintaining plants in veg beds, potting and planting; weeding the vegetables and harvesting for the table, mulching, preparation; mowing, hedge trimming, some project work to redesign garden areas, general tidying of beds and different garden areas. 10 acres/4 hectares on granite-derived soil, the NE facing land sloping towards a fenced and treed creek. A non commercial 'hobby farm' with no livestock. Vegetable garden beds, reticulated irrigation system, winegrape vines, mature River Red Gum and Yellow Box trees, new plantings of mixed native trees and understorey, sowing and establishment of native grasses. Accommodation in our home which offers guest bedrooms and bathroom in separate part of the house to our living area. Learn vine maintenance, wine making (activity depends on timing), propagation, plant protection. Help with general horticultural maintenance.

350 acres on the escarpment 10 min from Byron Bay, adjacent to small remnants of subtropical rainforest. We run 150 cattle and grow  pecans. We are pursuing biological farming practices. We are active in Landcare and are replanting the Riparian zones on the farm. Volunteering includes cattle handling, fencing, maintenance of rainforest plantings, weeding, harvesting of pecans, and vegetable gardening. Accommodation for 4 in our home as family with flexible meals. No children. No smoking inside.

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).

In many of our travels, we've been inspired by people who build their homes off-grid, sustain themselves with food they grew, and make their communities more loving and resilient. Eventually we'd like to do the same. Wildland fire is a cool job in many ways, but it's taxing on the spirit (we work more hours in 6 months than many do all year). So, while we save up for land of our own, we plan to enjoy the biggest perk of our job: 6 months off to travel and learn. We hope to connect with organic farmers and learn what it takes, exchange stories, make friends, and maybe make some art too. Lots of other firefighters recommended WWOOF, so here we are.

We have travelled much and had years working overseas. We find people of all cultures interesting and people who stay with us are treated like family. Volunteering is such things as making fences, gardening, making pathways, cutting firewood and generally keeping our 2 hectare property in order.

A 14 acre property on the Mornington peninsula, overlooking the sea. A small showjumping horse property. Organic vegetables next to the house. Small wetlands bird sanctuary. Woofers with horse experience will get priority, must be good with dogs.

My boyfriend and I are on a working holiday visa, looking to work and live in Australia for a while. WWOOFING seemed to be the perfect opportunity for us to settle in, meet some people and get to know the environment that we would eventually like to do paid work in. We have plenty of energy to give back in return! We are very enthousiast about engaging in biological and eco-farming in particular and any linked social activities.

When traveling I like to get out of the city as fast as possible and start exploring the culture. I believe that wwoofing is a great way to see the real Australian culture and also to gain interesting experiences

30 years ago my parents backpacked Australia and Wwoof’d, and so now I am here I would love to experience what they did. They had such a great time and learnt a lot and made friends they are still in contact with! I would love to experience a different life from the 9-5 office job I have back home. And immerse myself into local life.

I decided to join WWOOF because I am currently on my summer break from university. After the term ended, many of my friends returned to their home countries, and I suddenly found myself with a lot of free time and not many people around. It felt a little lonely, and during that time I realized how much I missed connecting with others. I considered looking for a part-time job near my house, but for some reason, it didn’t excite me. I kept asking myself, “Is this really how I want to spend the next two months? Will this help me grow or bring me closer to what I truly want?” The answer didn’t feel like yes. Deep down, I wanted something more meaningful. I wanted days that felt exciting and fulfilling. I wanted to reconnect with people, meet new friends, spend time in nature, experience something new, and contribute to others. But at the same time, I had limited money, no connections, and I honestly wasn’t sure if such an opportunity even existed. Then I discovered WWOOF. It felt like everything I was hoping for—my desire to help others, to learn new things, to experience nature, to meet people again, and to make the most of my current financial situation—was all possible here. I also realized that living in Australia and having this kind of freedom is something that may not happen again in my life. I want to use this precious time meaningfully. I truly believe that through WWOOF, I can enjoy my days, connect with wonderful people, and grow as a person. That is why I am writing this message with so much excitement and hope. I am really looking forward to the people I will meet and the experiences I will gain through WWOOF. I feel deeply grateful to have found this opportunity, and I cannot wait to begin this journey.

On the one hand, my sister recommended it to me, and on the other hand, I thought it would be a good opportunity to learn a lot about Australia and life here. In addition, I am someone who likes to have a task, a meaningful activity, which is why I think the concept of working and traveling suits me well.

We purchased our home in June 2023. Situated on over an acre of land, surrounded by national forest and offering stunning views across the hills, we believe we have found our own paradise. Our property was described as a "Renovator's Delight" when we acquired it, presenting us with numerous potential projects. To date, we have installed a new roof and guttering, added a water tank, and gone completely off-grid with a standalone solar system. Additionally, we have planted over 200 native rainforest and fruit trees, and transformed bare land into food and flower gardens. With assistance last year, we created these gardens, built a shade house, established an outdoor laundry, conducted extensive gardening, tidying, and commenced dismantling the enclosed back veranda. In exchange for 5 hours of work per day, 4-5 days per week (covering tasks ranging from gardening to building, carpentry, and painting), we offer our expertise and practices, three meals daily, and a camping space if you have your own accommodation (van/caravan or tent with power and running water available from the unfinished ablutions block). Alternatively, we can provide a bedroom with a double bed or a comfortable camp bed if you prefer not to share a bed. Our home is modest but comfortable and is continually evolving.  

We are situated in the picturesque Hunter Valley surrounded by bushland and abundant wildlife. We live in a solar powered home built from part of the set of The Matrix movie. We are a family of three Hadyn, an artist, Penny an artist /teacher and our daughter Correa who is exploring permaculture and occasionally visits the property. We are a musically interested family and love jamming with our guests. We love travelling and meeting people from all over the world. We have a swimming pool, a small vineyard, veggie garden and orchard.

Preferred name is Bhodi. Moving back to the Northern Rivers in early 2026. I see WWOOFing as a stepping stone to a more permanent place in the area. I also would like to have a break from my current career and spend more time outdoors. Hoping to have stalls at markets on the weekends with my art prints etc. when I come back to the Northern Rivers. Notice more and more how happy I am outdoors gardening, doing Landcare or enjoying the great outdoors.

I have 3 Certified Organic properties in Lorinna. Home is 70 acres (40 cleared) in a beautiful mountain valley, bordering Lake Cethana. Second is 95 acres higher in the valley – magnificent views, cleared & divided into paddocks for grazing cattle & growing hay.

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.

Expect to be welcomed into a relaxed family atmosphere by myself and my friendly dog 'Yin Yin' Whispering Winds is in remote bushland 28km south of Cooktown. and is 'Off grid' with solar power, creek water, satellite WiFi and no mobile reception. You are expected to do a variety of activities, including fruit picking and processing, making pickles, wine etc. Helping my tropical orchard and vegetable gardens thrive with love and care, weeding, composting, collecting seeds, potting up and planting fruit trees and to help with building and other maintenance projects. I practice Biodynamics, and am part of a regional BD stirring and prep group that meets once a month when the Moon is in opposition to Saturn, this can be at Whispering Winds or at another property close by, wwoofers are very welcome to join in these informative and social days. Please take time while you are here to enjoy the peace of the bush, relax, swim in our croc free lagoon, stargaze by the camp fire, bushwalk through the rainforest to waterfalls. WWOOFer's accommodation is in a large, private caravan accommodation, with comfortable beds, a king and a single. Meals are varied and home made, mostly vegetarian, with plenty of ingredients from the garden. I'm not concerned about your vaccination status, I believe our health is no-ones business except our own and those we choose to share that information with. We welcome children. b.a. No smoking inside.

Through WWOOFing, I hope to gain meaningful hands-on experiences — not only in winemaking, but also in various aspects of farm life and local culture. As mentioned in my profile, I study agricultural chemistry , which focuses on the science behind farming, food, and the environment.So I believe WWOOFing is closely related to my field of study. And also,my another important goal is to improve my English communication skills. I believe that the best way to become a fluent English speaker is to stay in an English-speaking environment for a long time and actively communicate with local people. During my WWOOFing experience in Slovakia last summer, I stayed in Europe for four weeks. That experience taught me patience and adaptability, and it also helped me become much more confident in speaking English. I want to continue learning and growing through new WWOOFing experiences while connecting with people from different backgrounds and contributing to their farms.

Our property is 94 acres, nestled on the northern face of Mt Barrow. It is a bush block, mainly Myrtle and native rain forest ideal for walking through with a creek and a large dam for trout fishing. Large cleared area around the house with a big organic and berry garden. We are told it is very idyllic.
