Growing up we always had WWOOFers at home and they were always so fun and happy and smiling and I’ve always just thought wow seeing them so happy in life is something I’ve always strived for. I’ve been WWOOFing around the uk and absolutely just fell in love with it so I thought why not do it in my own country? I hope by joining WWOOF that I can find like minded people and create wonderful memories and lessons that I can keep all my life while learning how to support the environment.

I have been told that its a great opportunity for young people to live abroad and learn simultaneously. Learn about sustainable living and how to grow your own food is something I am interested in.

I am going to have to wait for almost 2 years for my residency visa to be certified . So I thought that it would be a good idea for me to get out and about to meet new people and maybe make some good friends .

I joined to gain experience in permaculture and learned how to grow my own food, I've survived the last two years through dumpster diving. I now want to adopt a more subsistent way of living and I feel permaculture is the next step.

I joined WWOOF as I saw it as a wonderful opportunity to learn about organic farming and connect with new people around Australia. With covid-19, travel outside of Australia is limited, but after discovering WWOOF Australia, I realise there is so many amazing places to go, people to meet, and work to be done right here on home soil! I hope to volunteer whenever I can in my university holidays; to share farming experiences and learn new skills.

Growing up in the city, I always have a dream to live on the farm. I love animals and plants and have a passion for making things from scratch. I have no that much experience in vegetation and farm works, but I have a passionate heart and willing to learn everything new. I hope to make friends with the hosts and other volunteers and become a better me at the end of the journey.

Hi. My name is Michael. I have a degree in Social Science. I have WWOOFed before and enjoyed it. I live in the Northern Rivers. I'd like to visit some more farms in the northern rivers and meet great earthy people who get along with the land. I have lived at Bodhi Farm Community for a couple of years. I have WWOOFed in Bellingen and in the Northern Rivers. I am Australian if you are interested in that and I am a tall man, if height is a concern. My interests are getting earthy work done with nice sweet natured people. I enjoy swimming holes if you have a good one. I don't know if you really are hoping for specific qualifications, but I can use a variety of tools and I have done some constructive jobs that involved putting things together. Hope we can meet if you are a great land lubber. Bonswa!

To get experience with organic agriculture. Looking to move into regenerative agriculture and move to country. Want to get experience with several ways of agriculture/ horticulture before purchasing land myself. Keen to see the nitty gritty of some animal-based ventures such as dairy, beef, egg production, chicken meat, maybe sheep or goats. Also interested in market garden/ intensive horticulture.

Keen to learn more about looking after plants, wildlife and animals. I'd like to learn how to live more sustainably, and enjoy volunteering. I'm keen to get my hands dirty and learn from you.

We joined WWOOF Australia because it offers many of the things we value as we travel and educate our children. Health starts with diet and as we've explored this further the value of Organic food has become more and more important. As the world is changing I believe there is a real need to return to the basics of simple living and healthy eating. We are excited by the opportunity to live and work on an organic farm. For many years I've heard people talk about WWOOF and as time has passed my interest has grown. We have friends who recommended we join WWOOF Australia.

I joined WWOOF because I've just met a WWOOFER host farm/family and feel that the experience is what I'm looking for. I would love to travel around this beautiful country that Australia is and experience life through the eyes of farming. Currently working on a cattle station, I am learning everyday more and I absolutely love the diversification and variety of daily activities from watching cows calves., to fencing, to gathering firewood, to helping in the garden as well as enjoying every outdoor perspective of rural work.

I think WWOOFing offers a great chance to experience a more rural lifestyle first hand whilst giving back to the local community. I hope that by WWOOFing I'm able to broaden my understanding of agriculture, farming, and rural living.

I have recently been widowed and I am rediscovering my enjoyment of travel. I have done WWOOFing in Tasmania, NSW and Victoria during the 1990s, and enjoyed the opportunity to meet like-minded people and make a contribution to their projects. I look forward to doing this again during 2020.

We are eager to teach our boys about healthy eating and healthy living. We are keen to engage with sustainable food pathways, and contribute to people's ideas and projects. We want to support organic growers, meet new people and explore more of our beautiful country.

I joined WWOOF because i enjoy working outdoors, but my hometown doesn't have any opportunities for younger, less-experienced people in farming. I also have friends who WWOOF and would like to be able to gain more experiences I would not be able to get otherwise

I want to deepen my knowledge in organic farming and have a particular interest in Market Gardens. I want to meet like minded people open to sharing their knowledge and skills. I am also interested in natural building techniques and getting hands on experience building things! I want to travel around rural Victoria and get to know local communities to see if I find a place that might become my future home.

I met someone in my travels who was WWOOFing and highly recommended me to look into it. I have some time to fill before the boarder restrictions allow me to come back home to Tasmania and I want to fill that time doing something productive.

Several friends have had positive experiences with WWOOFing, and I'd like to find out more about WWOOFing opportunities in Australia. I'd like to learn a little bit more about organic agriculture, contribute to a worthy project and meet interesting people along the way!

From mid-November to mid-December, I want to help out here on WWOOF, in exchange for accommodation. I can offer up to five hours per day, up to five days per week. I would prefer weekends off to see my family, if possible. If you like, we can video or phone chat beforehand!

To learn and experience the farming world! I would love to learn more about regenerative practices, would especially like to learn about animal husbandry as my knowledge is very limited!
