I want to gain new experiences, work towards areas that interest me, and connect with people while learning practical skills outside my usual environment.

We are two Uni students from Melbourne studying science, and are both very passionate about the environment and finding sustainable ways forward. For us, WWOOFing is an opportunity to learn new, practical skills, and to gain a better understanding of how we produce our food. Furthermore, we both love to travel overseas, but have barely travelled our own state/country, and would like to explore the variety of unique landscapes and places.

I'm looking to learn the skills and knowledge to build a future that feels viable to me and this seemed like a really good way to do that. It's also a lovely way to travel and explore different land/climates, and meet people that share passions and interests 🙂

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.

Cennednyss Community is an intentional community of 5 households living on a small property in the Adelaide Hills near Mt Lofty. Our ages range from mid-70s to mid-20s. We live cooperatively, guided by feminist & ecological principles. Our native trees & 2 dams provide homes for many birds, possums & koalas. We work together to care for our property, growing a diverse range of fruit & vegetables & harvesting wood from our trees & honey from bees. We enjoy having hens, sheep, alpacas & kangaroos as well as domestic animals. WWOOFers will be asked to participate in all aspects of growing, management, harvesting and preserving our produce, including: composting, mulching & digging out blackberries. Also, fire prevention work & firewood collection. Accommodation for 2 people our home, shared mixed meals. No children. No smoking inside. Initial stay of 3-5 days, longer by negotiation.

I am an organic produce farm in far north Queensland I border the mary creek which flows from the national reserve forest on the western edge of the daintree national park.My soil is fertile and gives life to a plethora of native and tropical fruits.We can offer guidance on the intergration of all kinds of natural farming methods.Including permaculture,natural insect management,syntropic farming,basic biodynamics and very important knowledge contributions from people like masanobu fukuoka and peter andrews.All of these knowledge resourses are combined here to explore self sufficiency and put into practice.

I joined WWOOF because I would really like to experiment life in a farm. I think it would be a great experience for me and my studies. I hope to learn new skills and knowledge by WWOOFing. And as I am still unsure about what to do in the future, I hope WWOOFing will help me find a vocation.

Our property is nestled in the beautiful Adelaide Hills just near the tourist town of Hahndorf.  We have a small hobby farm of 14 acres, with 7 horses, 2 dogs, chooks, 2 goats and 7 delightful donkeys.

We have a farming business just 4 hours drive south of Sydney producing angus beef cattle. Jobs range from fencing, mustering cows, collecting eggs from our 10 chickens bushfire recovery work which is eligable specified work for the purpose of second or third work holiday (subclass 417) visa. WWOOFers need no experience and will have the opportunity to see horses, motorbikes and participate in general farm life. We would like WWOOFers to be outgoing and enthusiastic, and if time permits have fun participating in other outdoor activities. Accommodation for 1-2 in our home. We enjoy Meat-style meals. Non-smokers only. Prefer long stays after short trial period.

I have a passion for meeting people and learning new skills. WWOOFing is a great way to explore the world on a budget, and I cannot wait to learn more about organic farms and their impacts on their communities. I think every person could benefit from spending time on a farm & learn what it takes to grow the food on their table.

Hi WWOOFers, I apologise that I am unavailable at present due to illness. Watch this space - I will take this down when back up and running!! I have a large property in the beautiful rainforest area of Kangaroo Valley in the Southern Highlands of NSW. Unfortunately, we were badly hit by the Australian bushfires in January 2020, and much of the work on the farm still centres around bushfire recovery and construction. We live a pioneering lifestyle without all the usual comforts: we have a composting toilet, off-site shower, outdoor 2-burner gas stove for cooking etc. We do now have a small solar power system, and internet. Accommodation is basic but comfortable. Food is good - that's important! You can also bring your own van, or sleep in your own tent if it has a sewn-in floor. WWOOFers can learn building (often using timber we fell ourselves), including earth building, developing vegetable gardens and food forests, and many other diverse skills as we work together on a wide range of projects. No prior knowledge is needed, as I am happy to teach you everything you need to know. The purpose for the property ultimately is to establish long term accommodation for homeless or at-risk young people. My background is in social work, and I have many years' experience working with children and families struggling with various issues. I really want to emphasise to all prospective WWOOFers that we still have a long way to go in restoring the property. In many ways it still looks like a disaster zone. Life is difficult here and I don't want you to be under any illusions that there is something romantic about colonial living. It is hard, and it is not something that just anyone can cope with. I need WWOOFers who understand this, and who thrive on working hard and making a contribution. So far, WWOOFers of this kind also find the experience deeply rewarding in a range of ways, as they have expressed in the reviews submitted below.  

I have a small rural acreage, it is chemical free.I am vegetarian and do not allow meat on the property (but am only 3 minutes from a town.). Wildlife is abundant and beautiful There are native gardens, exotic gardens fruit trees and vegies growing.... There is always weeding, planting, pruning, whippersnipping, changing of seasons mean everything needs a feed etc We always have small projects on the go and can always use a hand The beautiful Mary Valley is 45 mins north east of Noosa, 30 minutes south of Gympie, 10 minutes to Borumba Dam.

Georgella Farm is a charming small family hobby farm on semi-rural acreage, just a short drive from Coffs Harbour, Sawtell, and beautiful beaches. Here, WWOOFers can experience farm life up close with our friendly animals—sheep, chooks, a cat, and two bunnies—while helping out with day-to-day tasks like feeding, gardening, mulching, pruning, fencing, and general yard and house maintenance. During free time, there’s plenty to explore in the surrounding area. You can visit pristine beaches, go swimming or surfing, take bushwalks, explore local markets, or enjoy the cafes and shops in Coffs Harbour and Sawtell. The region offers a great mix of natural beauty and small-town charm, perfect for relaxing after a day on the farm. Accommodation is in a small cabin for one person (possibly two), with shared meals provided. We offer a mixed diet and can accommodate most dietary needs. Please note, this is a non-smoking environment.

We live on a 500 acre bushland community overlooking the Pacific Ocean. We are building a stone and timber house, grow food and flowers and also run a certified organic tea tree farm. We are fully off grid and about 30 min drive from the nearest town and beach and 1 hour South of Byron Bay. There is very limited public transport in this area.

I joined WWOOF because I would like to learn all kinds of stuff about farming and the life in Australia. I generally like a more peaceful life like on a farm

Welcome to the beautiful hilly town of Bridgetown. Our property is called Myrtle May Farm. It's a walk/ cycle, or jog away from cafes, local art and music events and all the things that make an amazing community. Our property is a Permiculture Food Forest  with medicinal and culinary herbs, fruit trees, vege raised beds and beautiful ornamental gardens that lift your spirits. For the last 20 years we have hosted hundreds of wwoofers and most have stayed longer....loving the positive vibe and all the arts and permaculture philosophy we practice here. We create low waste solutions and get creative on the way. Accommodation is a very warm, cosy and clean caravan with its own Japanese styled pagoda. We continually renovate it to make it a special for all travellers and friends. We have just built a yoga studio and use it for yoga, and soundhealing. With an abundance of produce we teach wwoofers to come up with creative culinary treats and have had minor miracles produced in the kitchen! Art is a huge emphasis on our property as well as music. Welcome!
