J'ai choisi le woofing pour l'expérience humaine. Le concept est génial : rencontrer de vrais locaux et pouvoir les aider en échange d'hospitalité et de moments conviviaux.

I want to join WWOOFing because I believe it’s the best way to experience Australia in a meaningful way. Traveling is not just about visiting places for me; it’s about connecting with people, learning new skills, and immersing myself in different lifestyles. I love the idea of giving a helping hand in exchange for a unique cultural experience. Whether it’s working outdoors, taking care of animals, or learning about sustainable living, I’m always eager to contribute and grow. This journey is also an opportunity to step out of my comfort zone, challenge myself, and create unforgettable memories with great people. I look forward to meeting amazing hosts and sharing good times together 🙂

Taking care of living beings, especially animals, is close to my heart. Leaving my epileptic cat in France was heartbreaking for me. Having grown up in the southwest of France, surrounded by animals in the countryside, I'm in awe of the beauty of nature in all its forms. In our big house in the countryside there is always gardening work to do. I often helped my father prune trees, cut wood for the winter and store it. Cut the grass and take care of planting and harvesting vegetables.That's why I'm searching for a place where I can thrive, assisting with daily tasks and learning more about fruit and vegetable cultivation. I have experience in fruit picking; I picked blackcurrants and redcurrants for 3 months.

I joined WWOOF to immerse myself in new cultures and learn about sustainable farming practices. By taking part in WWOOF I hope to gain practical experience, network with like-minded people and make a positive contribution. It will also be a great way for me to improve my foreign language skills. Coming to Australia was a childhood dream and I wanted to do something meaningful. I heard about WWOOFing from a friend and that inspired me to try it. I have very little experience of working in gardens, having helped out in my grandparents' vegetable garden in Italy. I'm looking forward to fulfilling this dream and learning from my experiences.

I’m excited about the opportunity to contribute to your farm/home, learn more about organic practices, and immerse myself in the local community. I would love to help out in any way I can.

I have signed up to wwoof whilst I am on university holidays. I would love to meet and learn from hosts, hearing their stories and life journeys. I have a keen interest in learning about growing my own food organically. Not being reliant on going to the grocery store is the ultimate goal. I would love to learn about off grid housing as being part of building my own eco home is a dream of mine. I don’t have any experience in construction, but I am keen to learn. Learning about off grid housing- solar, water, waste etc. I have experience in conservation and land management having completed my Certificate II. I would love to learn more about rehabilitation. Taking land that has been degraded and restoring it back to a thriving ecosystem. My dream is to be one day living off the land, being self-sufficient in my off-grid home. Raising my babies in nature with my soulmate.

We have dreamed about moving to a larger piece of land for awhile but feel quite overwhelmed with the idea. We would love to experience the reality of farm life to get a sense of how or if it might fit with our family lifestyle. We also just generally love learning new things and having different experiences.

I joined WWOOF because I needed a reset. For the last 6 years I’ve worked a job in the city and over time I’ve found that the job, where I live and the life I’m living don’t align with my values and it’s not the life I want to live. So I’ve quit the job and I’m looking to reset. I really wanted to spend a bit of time travelling and volunteering, working outside in nature (instead of being glued to a laptop), and meeting new people who I can learn a variety of skills from that I hope to implement into my own life. My mum shared a link to WWOOF and it ticked all the boxes and was exactly what I was looking for!

We chose to become Wwoofers for several reasons. First, having both families working in the agricultural sector, Australia represents for us an opportunity to discover the agricultural life of another continent and the environmental practices that are developing there. Wwoofing is also for us a way to live a human and cultural adventure by sharing the daily life of families or local communities. We deeply believe that these experiences will strengthen our values ​​of solidarity, our qualities of adaptation and we will learn another approach to agriculture. Finally, we wish to contribute to projects, while refining our skills, learning new techniques and continuing to explore Australia. In short, it is for us a chance to combine our desire to learn, our taste for adventure and our respect for nature, while creating unforgettable memories.

As I said in the description of myself, the reason I am currently in Australia is to change air and discover the world. Apart from immersing myself in a foreign country 17 000 kilometers away from my hometown in the south of France, my strategy to do so is to meet new australian people, in order to capture all the nuances of a culture and a way of life that is completely unknown to me. Having that is mind, I realized that woofing was the best way to fulfil this goal. Working side by side for australians in exchange for food and accomodation, in a friendly and familiy-like atmosphere sounds like the perfect plan to me. Beyond financial reasons, I litteraly live to discover and to meet new people. I think that it's the best way for anyone to be free with himself and others, and (obviously) to be open to all kinds of humanbeings, which are two fundamental ingredients in the recipe of hapiness, to say the least! These are the reasons I joined WWOOF !

Is the perfect occasion for me to travel a bit in Australia and discover the country with the best way : work and talk with Australian people! I'm already did some woofing in New Zealand and I enjoyed it a lot. I'll try to have the same great experience in Australia.

Dark Horse Farm is a 100 acre organic farm 7kms from beautiful Yackandandah in North East Victoria. We are a registered carbon farm - the first small acreage property to be accredited. Tree planting will begin again in the Australian Autumn. We also have a large vegetable patch that needs daily care, fruit trees, 7 horses, 4 goats, 4 chickens, 2 sheep and 5 pet dogs. Our ideal match would be a vegetarian or vegan couple or single who love animals and is passionate about regeneration. You would also not be shy about the every day mundane tasks - we spend a lot of time mowing, brush cutting weeding and redistributing horse manure. Accommodation for our WWOOFs is a well appointed caravan.

Why do we keep woofing? Because every experience teaches us something new. Whether it’s a farming technique, a cultural tradition, or just a great conversation with our hosts, woofing constantly enriches our lives. Plus, it's a fun way to give back while learning how to live more sustainably.

We want to travel quite slowly around Australia and soak up each place that we visit, meeting and getting to know people along the way. We both loving being outdoors and learning new skills and feel that WWOOFing is the perfect way to do this. We love getting stuck into projects and it will be really interesting to see how people are living alongside nature on the other side of the world.

The Cook, her pigs, the Climate Change Scientist & his cows, check us out on Google Earth. We offer great food (sorry no special diets) with interesting conversation in a beautiful valley within bike riding distance of Cygnet and the beach. We offer advice on purchasing your own property, cookery, charcuterie-in autumn, market gardening, cookery, preserving, cider making and animal husbandry. We farm organically and try to live as sustainably as possible, we employ principles of permaculture. Volunteering includes feeding poultry & animals, planting, weeding, mowing, compost making, brewing, fencing, occasional animal slaughter (only if you are interested) and processing & General Farm Maintenance. Accommodation for 2 singles within our home, or a couple in our caravan attached to the house, see the picture. Shared meals, mixed diets. Can P/U from Cygnet any day or Hobart by arrangement if flight arrives before 3pm between Tues-Thurs. Please don't come to us directly from overseas or if you are ill, as I am in the high risk group for respiratory problems. WWOOFers must be prepared to work independently at times. No smokers. Minimum stay 2 weeks. We prefer longer stays by WWOOFers with a genuine interest in agriculture. Initial contact by email, please. WiFi unlimited. If no answer leave a message slowly, stating your name and number and we will get back to you. We want to leave our land in a lot better state than we found it. We are supporters of the Tasmanian Land Conservancy and The Bob Brown Foundation which both preserve old growth forests and special areas of value to flora, fauna and eco-systems. In the long term we are looking for someone to park a tiny house on the property and take over all the gardens, land and animals to allow us more freedom to travel and spend time with our families but still have somewhere to call home.

We're a young Italian couple seeking a unique travel experience. WWOOFing allows us to explore the beautiful Australian countryside, learn about sustainable agriculture, and connect with people who share our passion for nature. We're excited to contribute to the farm and learn new skills.

I hope that woofing will give me an insight into the lives of Australians, physical activity and the satisfaction that comes with having achieved something, learnig something new, sharing a good mood, making new friends, chatting about everything under the sun and the world (which will hopefully improve my english) and I really enjoy the occasional campfire evening. In Germany, I did an internship with two horse trainers for four months and really enjoyed this very busy time. I really enjoyed the sense of community and especially the good atmosphere. This will be my first time woofing and I'm really looking forward to this experience which might be quite similar to the externships but will hopefully get me to learn a hole lot of things like baking, making cheese, fermenting food or even other things I do not know yet.

I had a wonderful experience participating in wwoof in Canada before, and I would like to participate in WWOOF again in Australia.

Until now we have always liked our previous experiences as WWOOFER and we want to explore the Australian organic farm as well, and in addition there is the possibility that these days as volunteers are counted for the 88 days of our WHV
