I’m drawn to WWOOF as a chance to reconnect with nature and learn about sustainable farming practices. I’m eager to immerse myself in the rhythms of rural life, trading the hustle & bustle of daily life for the tranquility of the countryside. Through WWOOF, I hope to gain hands-on experience in farming and permaculture. I’m excited to contribute to host farms, learn from experienced farmers, and be part of a community that shares my values. I am excited about learning new skills and meeting new friends. It would be doing something that’s out of my comfort zone but I believe it’s worth it!

I joined here because I wanted to have a good experience by interacting with the locals and interacting with the great Australian nature and animals Through WWOOF activities. I love new experiences and nature and animals.

I joined WWOOF on a recommendation from another backpacker friend who had a really fulfilling WOOFing experience. I have lived in cities my whole life, so I am really excited to challenge myself, to experience rural life, learn some completely new skills and meet some interesting people!

We are on a Journey to explore Australia, have new experiences and meet people along the way. We are both from the country and love the simple things in life and appreciate nature. We look forward to meeting likeminded people, learning and helping out where we can 🙂

We have been doing wwoofing and different work for accommodations for the past year and a half now in the US and Canada and now Australia. We find it is the best way to immerse ourselves in the areas, meet like minded people, learn different skills, explore different styles of living and share our knowledge.

I recently moved to the Island. My vision is to grow an organic garden. My place is just Walking distance to Rocky Point where the bush meets the bay. The amenities on the island are a market place, shops, cafes, police & ambulance, volunteer Fire Brigade Chemist, Sports ground and facilities, Art group, Community Center & Swimming pool, If you have any questions you're welcome to contact the above for further details. You will be sharing a two bedroom house with two mature adults. My home is a beautiful country style house known as a “Queenslander”. I have an Art studio downstairs where I create my art of pottery and oil painting. Where I live is surrounded by conservation land with birds, wildlife and fauna. Enjoy waking upto birds singing their morning songs, the breeze in the trees, and the sounds and smells of nature. Yet we are only 10 minutes from the shops and ferry terminal. Google Russell Island to find out how to travel here by car or train, bus and ferry.

My parents used to host Wwoofers on their 150 acre property quite a few years ago, so I have been exposed to it a bit. I joined for the adventure and experience of meeting new people and to see how they live as well as being able to help out. At the moment the plan is that there is no plan, when normally I like to be organised and to know where I am going and what I am doing (good Virgo trait). So being comfortable in the uncomfortable, to let go, surrender and trust, and to see where the universe takes me is where I am at.

The opportunity to contribute to an inspiring and vital way of life is the driving factor behind our keen-ness to partake in WWOOF. A day of nature volunteering is transformative and so to elongate that time would be a privilege and a joy. Since reading 'Ultra Processed People' by Chris Van Tulleken - one of our favourite books which details the harms of ultra-processed foods, we have actively sought to be mindful of what we consume and its impacts on people and the planet. We are so excited to meet new people and grow because of it and we are fascinated with the intricacies of organic farming and the love and care that goes into it.

We are set on 13 acres in Central Victoria just on the outskirts of Malmsbury, We share the property with horses and dogs, and an abundant birdlife. Most often accommodation will be in our retro caravan which is done up as a nice bedroom, with bathroom facilites 20m away. All meals in the main house 50m away.

Andrew and I have just begun a working holiday and we believe in the benefits of cultural exchange as an educational tool. We have both experienced its effectiveness firsthand multiple times in our lives. Sustainable agriculture continues to interest us as a career and we view this working holiday as an opportunity to hone in skills pertaining to that pursuit. We see many opportunities to leverage WWOOF as a tool to develop our skills while simultaneously seeing the country.

I joined WWOOF through AIFS and l am interested in learning about life on Australian Organic& Permaculture farms and learning about growing and producing organically.

We are currently traveling around Australia. We are excited to meet new people, learn more about Australian culture and nature, and dive into new experiences. We would be happy if we could help people and make them smile by doing what we can.

We are two highly motivated chefs, in partnership, in a specialised company supplying wild & heirloom produce as well as bespoke shelf items to the hospitality industry. FORAGING FOR WILD MUSHROOMS. The Foraging arm of our business begins in late February and we do take WWOOFERS along. These are highly coveted positions as you get to travel and hike the Blue Mountains, and other areas, across with us as we search for Wild Fungi. Applications are now open for this event. This experience suits Experienced Hikers. THE MARKET GARDEN. We also run a lovely 5 acre Market Garden in Romsey, around 1 hour from Melbourne. We supply Venues and wholesalers, with Organically grown produce, delivering to Melbourne several times a week. We live in Romsey town in a large house with a garden. It's an easy walk down the hill to the pub and amenities. The Macedon Ranges is a beautiful place to spend some time.

I hope I might glean something of the art of ‘living well’. La bonne vie, l’art de vivre - call it what you will, it is what I think everyone should aspire to, and it can mean different things to different people. My idea of it happens to align with those who host wwoofers: hospitality; growing good food off the land; existing en plein air. Who knows, perhaps one day I might join the ranks of Wwoofing hosts, ready to pass on the secrets to the good life.

I joined WWOOF because I need to complete my last three months of regional work to qualify for the third year of working holiday visa (subclass 417). I've already done half of my days at a nursery farm, so I know what to expect and am ready to dive back into the experience.

I've always wanted to so Woofing. Now that I'm in Australia, I think it's the best moment to have that experience ! I'd love to learn about gardening, cooking, building stuffs and I looooove taking care of animals. I can do anything 🙂 I am very motivated

I’m interested in being more connected to and aware of where my food comes from. Growing up in a suburb and living in cities for much of my adult life, I haven’t been able to learn much directly about food production and distribution. I’d like some firsthand experience and to be able to contribute to sustainable systems.

I joined WWOOF as a way to interact with others in learn more about the creative sustainable ways to produce food Working with regenerating this diverse landscape and share produce within community, to be able to volunteer and share experiences
