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.

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.

Our project is 90 acres of bush and fields in upland granite country near Stanthrope. Our community has about 13 members, some families, some single. The project was started in the mid 1970s by families and yoga monks intent on a lifestyle of all round wellbeing - physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, community, environmental. This is still the ethos. Since our foundation almost 50 years ago, farming here has been organic and chemical free. At various times we have had certification, including Bio-dynamic. Now, myself. I'm Dada Jitendrananda, a monk in the yoga tradition, and I look after the project. I love having wwoofers for the energy, help, good vibes, cultural richness and festivity they bring. I organise regular 2 week long working bee / meditation & yoga retreats that are great events of fun and development.

I’ve joined WWOOF to slow down from the hustle of the city and connect with local people learning new skills in anything related to nature and animal care, especially organic practices and permaculture. I truly believe that the WWOOFing approach reflects my values and I’d like to give my contribution.

This gives me the opportunity to meet local people in remote areas and also to make contacts where they live. As i said before, it will also give me the opportunity to learn more about myself far away from home and working with new people. My step brother spoke to me about that many years ago, I really wanted to do it.

Wwoofing is a great way to travel, and to experience different places and properties, to meet people, to learn about self-sufficiency and farming, and different ways of living. It's a great way to contribute to society through helping others. The value gained by all involved makes wwoofing an inspirational concept.

Our goal is to learn as much about home steading, gardening, and animal care as possible, as our goal is to design and build our own self-sufficient home and gardens. We love travelling and both have a keen interest to explore Australia, meet new like-minded people and expand our knowledge and understanding about these topics.

Like my bio points to, I got super burnt out spending long periods behind a computer after the nonprofit I helped found took off. I felt a really strong pull to get outside, get my hands dirty, and get my body moving again. I spent the last year in NZ working and volunteering in various ag industries; I found my best, some of them life-long, connections through WWOOF, so I knew I had to join WWOOF in Australia too!

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.

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.

HELLO! We are a non-profit eco farm situated on over 550 acres in Australia’s picturesque Hunter Valley, renowned for its vineyards and natural beauty. Our focus is to care for our environment and to give shelter and protection to our 60 cows and various other animals and birds for the natural duration of their lives. We practice organic farming and mindful sustainable living. Our community consists of dedicated Krishna devotees who are excited to be building something meaningful while cultivating a happy, meditative, spiritual lifestyle. We would love you to be part of our community for a little or a long while. Our farm is based on the teachings of bhakti yoga (the yoga of divine love), part of an ancient Indian spiritual philosophy, which emphasizes selfless service and respect for Mother Earth and all species of life. We practice love and non-violent behaviour to all.  

A great way of seeing rural parts of Australia and learn new things and hopefully met interesting characters. I love animals and have spent time on family farms growing up which I enjoyed. I’m an outdoor person and would like to see how others manage and live on the land using different techniques in growing and farming.

I partly grew up on the countryside, helping on farms since I was little. I have a good amount of experience with horses and have spent recent years helping friends on their hay-milk farm. I love the rhythm of rural life and hands-on work. Living off my savings for a year, I’m excited for a give-and-take experience while WWOOFing.
