I joined WWOOF to connect with people, experience different cultures, and learn about sustainable farming. I want to contribute with my work while gaining new skills and insights into daily farm life.

  Je recherche de nouvelles expériences et de nouvelles personnes à rencontrer. J'adore passer du temps dans mon jardin et j'aimerais apprendre davantage en travaillant la terre différemment et sans produits. Mais aussi découvrir de nouvelles façons de faire et partager et échanger des idées pour découvrir de nouvelles cultures et de nouveaux modes de vie. Apprendre auprès de mes hôtes sera un honneur.

On aimerait partager, apprendre, rencontrer des gens , sortir de notre zone de confort . C’est une expérience toute entière qu’on cherche . Une immersion dans la vie australienne. La découverte d’une culture et d’un pays . Le partage est très important pour nous aussi . We would like to share, learn, meet people, get out of our comfort zone. It’s a whole experience that we’re looking for. An immersion in Australian life. The discovery of a culture and a country. Sharing is very important to us too.

I want to experience what day to day life is like in Australia, as well as having a community for me to experience that with. Building friendships and memories that I can cherish. I think the best way to find that is through hard work and finding a routine in life in Australia.

To find a good and honest community of people with whom I can spend my limited time in Australia with pleasantly and enjoy the meditative acts of working with the animals and land around me. Although the work can be difficult, I find myself enjoying getting lost in the mindless acts of farming and animal care. I'm not looking for much specifically, just something where both parties can get a nice and honest exchange.

I’m really looking forward to discovering Australia, meeting new people, learning about different ways of living — and improving my English! WWOOFing sounds like a good way to connect with people and live a simple, local experience. I’m not sure yet if I’ll do it right when I arrive or later, but I’d like to keep this option open.

To collaborate and be part of a growing and meaningful community to share ideas, skills and to grow and live with the land and care for Country. I hope to reconnect with the earth and live sustainably and learn techniques to restore balance and harmony in our ecosystems with people who value simplicity growth and healing.

I joined WWOOF because I want to connect with nature, learn more about sustainable living, and contribute to local communities in a meaningful way. I’m excited to meet people from different cultures, share experiences, and grow both personally and practically. I believe WWOOF is a great opportunity to live simply, stay active, and give back while learning new skills.

Want to learn about growing the sublime black truffle? We’d love to welcome you at Elvesgate, a beautiful place where we grow the only certified organic / biodynamic black truffle in Australia and possibly the world. Our farm is not far from historic Braidwood in NSW and about an hour from Canberra. Besides growing high quality truffle, we also have a biodynamic home fruit orchard and vegetable garden, and 100 acres with cattle. We are happy to share our home and farm with you. Please call to discuss vaccinations - Thank you

I joined WWOOF in order to see different aspects of Aussie life while on my WHV visa. It also seemed like a more preferable way to get my required work, as it would actually allow me to see more populated areas of the country when not working.

I joined WWOOF because I love learning about sustainable living, organic farming, and different ways of working with nature. I also want to meet new people, share experiences, and immerse myself in local culture while contributing with my work and energy.

I am on a journey to connect with the planet, people, and explore my relationship to nature. I view WWOOFing as an experience that would not only contribute to my growth and awareness as an individual, but allow me to assist a family or community through a practice that I am passionate about and want to learn more about. Specifically, I am curious about permaculture farming practices as well as understanding the extent to which the relationship that the Aboriginal people had with the land is still recognized in farming practices today. By previously WWOOFing, immersing myself in documentaries, briefly volunteering at food pantries, and talking to local farmers, I hold a consciousness of the benefits that result from ensuring that all people have access to nutritious food; this does not just include those pertaining to health but also in relation to the ability that food has to foster community. Ultimately, I aspire for a meaningful experience that will challenge my values and perspectives on food/farming as well as the possible ways to live both a sustainable and consciousness life.

I had rent my field to grow vegetables in Tokyo and I will move to rural area in Japan after I finished working holiday ! I need to improve my organic farming skills without pesticide and get the skills of permaculture. I have the motivation to work with you and share cultural differences.

I'm interested in Organic. My sister worked at organic store. That was a reason why I am interested in organic. I tried organic food, shampoo, conditioner, soap, etc. I used to use especially organic lip balm. If we have a chance, I would like to prepare the dish using vegetables from your farm. I went to culinary school last year. I’m good at fillet a fish. I hope we will prepare the dish together. I’m curious about a life style of organic farmers. I don’t know well about good life style for earth. I expect that I will be able to learn about good life style for earth. In addition to that, I want to imitate part of your life style which I feel good. Homestay is one of my dreams. I have wanted to homestay since when I was an elementary school student. Probably, this dream will come true by joining WWOOF.

I came to Australia because I wanted to experience various things. In particular, I love animals and nature, so I joined Woof because I wanted to enjoy nature and experience living while interacting with animals. I have always been interested in agriculture and dairy farming and I wanted to learn more. Though wwoof, I would like to learn what kind of efforts go into making it possible for us to eat. I would like to deepen my interest and appreciation for food. I haven't experienced any other city other than Cairns, so I would like to live in a new place. My English is still poor, so I would like to be in an English environment. I would like to know about the values ​​and lifestyle that the host values ​​while spending time with them.I would like to listen to lots of stories and communicate with them.

As mentioned above, I had several great WWOOFing experience in South Korea, and I want to do this in other land again. I truly enjoy working and being close to nature. These experiences taught me to be adaptable, cooperative and grateful for what I have. I’m excited to learn new skills, meet people from different cultures, and contribute positively to the host.

I would love to volunteer at a farm in Australia, especially after the recent flooding, because I feel a strong wish to give something back to nature and to the local community. For me, working on a farm is not only about helping with practical tasks, but also about learning more about sustainable living, the land, and the people who care for it every day. I grew up surrounded by mountains and countryside in Austria, so spending time outdoors and being close to nature has always been a big part of my life. My goal is also to complete the required 88 days of regional farm work in order to extend my visa and continue my journey in Australia. I see this time as an opportunity to contribute with my energy and positivity, to learn new skills, and to gain valuable experiences while supporting the farm during a challenging period.

Valley Hay Supplies is located in The Lockyer Valley. It is a scenic and fertile region in southeastern Queensland, Australia, often referred to as “Australia’s Salad Bowl” due to its rich agricultural production. Situated between Brisbane and Toowoomba, it combines the peaceful charm of rural life with dramatic natural beauty. The landscape is a patchwork of lush farmland, gentle rolling hills, rugged escarpments, and river flats fed by the Lockyer Creek. The climate is warm and temperate, making it ideal for growing vegetables, fruits, and grains year-round. You’ll find fields stretching toward the horizon, interspersed with small towns like Gatton, Laidley, and Forest Hill that offer a warm country welcome and glimpses into Australia’s farming heritage.

Despite my interests in production animals, I could not get to experience much animal husbandry practices as I grew up in urban areas in Korea. As I wanted to learn more about Australia's livestock industry and also in a sense that veterinary school strongly encourages us to engage in extramural animal husbandry studies, I applied to sign up for WWOOF. As a vet student, I hope I could contribute to hosts’ duties in a more professional manner, practicing basic husbandry skills from handling, mustering, vaccination, drenching, and artificial insemination. Besides, having the understandings in running a farm would also be a precious chance for us for our future career. Also, having the experience to stay in rural Australian farms would give me and my friends more meaningful chance to explore real Australia and make memorable experiences immersed with great nature. We are also excited to make friends from all over the globe as well as the hosts in Australia.
