Through WWOOF I want to broaden our horizon. I think WWOOF is a great opportunity for backpackers to get to know about different ways of living, get in contact with locals (so with you!) and see how they live here in Australia. I am curious to discover and learn about a new perspective and am excited to meet new people! WWOOF gives me the ability to support people on their farms. I would love to help you in your daily life and excited to also learn and grow during my stay.

I want to interact with local people. I want to experience things that I can't do on a trip. I believe that many experiences will help children grow. Seeing parents doing volunteer work, I want them to help out and think about what they can do.

We decided to join WWOOF because it seemed like the perfect blend of adventure and meaningful work and aligns with our values! After years of studying biology and environmental science in classrooms, we’re ready to step outside, experience real farm life, and learn in a hands-on way. We’re excited to meet passionate hosts, hear their stories, and be part of their day-to-day. It’s a fun opportunity to connect with nature, contribute to sustainable living, and make some great memories along the way!

In the past, I had wonderful exchanges and experiences in volunteering as a wooofer in new countries I had the luck to visit, so why not in Australia too. Coming to Australia in 2024 with a WHV, I would like to discover and learn more about your far away country and from Aussies : your way of living, local practices and gain new skills. I hope I can give some of my energy to work with you on your projects, learn mutually and enjoy authentic Australia with you and others volunteers during this year to come.

We would love to explore some more places around Australia, meet new people and learn sustainable living skills to put into place in our own lives. We don't have much space at our home but one day dream of owning a property so would really enjoy staying with and learning from people.

My dream in Australia would be to be able to work there as an osteopath and get experience in this field while exploring the beauties of Melbourne. Unfortunately, I do not know when this will happen as there are a lot of paper work to deal with first. Therefore, I thought it would be a wonderful experience to immerse myself in the Australian's way by joining WWOOF and make the most out of it for the time being. What I wish to achieve on this platform is to learns new skills, be in the nature or connect with people or animals. I have many years of manual work behind me whether in construction sites, in the farming world or even shaping surfboard. I would love to get involve in work that either allows me to be outside, have social connection or enable me to build things and get creative.

I want to meet as many peoples and especially locals so we can share a bit of experience and cultures. I only heard good things about woofers so I want to try myself

To explore the world, to see where that will take me. I’ve always been interested in organics and recycling growing up in California. It was really big in the 90s. I’ve heard so much about this organisation over the years and I want to give it a go myself

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.

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.

Briar Rose is a wild food and rose garden on a fringe suburb in Australia's capital city, Canberra. The property is 800m2 and has two small dwellings. A house and tiny house. There are hens, guinea pigs, a dog, cat, budgies, fish and the occsdinal turkey or baby goat! The garden produces figs, cherries, raspberries, strawberries, limes, lemons, almonds, walnuts, pears, apples, peaches, nectarines, quinces, mulberries, elderflower, plums, greens, vegetables, herbs and lots of flowers for birds, butterflies and cut flowers. Briar Rose is 13 min from the centre of Canberra city which is famous for art, museums and great food and beautiful surroundings.

I heard about the opportunity to WWOOF from friends and became a member for several reasons. Firstly, I find it interesting to learn more about agriculture and farm life in Australia while supporting it in a sustainable way and gaining new skills myself. Additionally, I believe it is a great way to experience Australian culture from a different perspective while also having a place to stay. That’s why I would be very happy to find a spot on a farm. 🙂

We live in Narara Ecovillage which is an hour North of Sydney. The village of 150 people (currently, and growing) is developing organic vegetable and egg production applying permaculture principles. The property is 150 acres including buildings, a bushlot, a flood plain, a dam for swimming and community gardens. We have retrofitted an old house as our residence and are creating permaculture gardens on our Lot. You can view a TV show about our renovation on Restoration Australia on this link. https://iview.abc.net.au/video/DO1911H006S00 Accommodation is in a tent in our campsite where other Wwoofers and visitors stay. We provide all camping equipment and bedding. Breakfast is at the campsite, other meals are provided with us in our home. Part of the job includes garden bed preparation, so we need a volunteer who has a strong back and can help with the heavy work such as digging, turning compost and moving soil. We prefer a stay of minimum 4 weeks, so that we are not retraining every couple of weeks. WHAT TO BRING Some wwoofers have asked what they should bring, so here is a list. You will need closed shoes or boots. Shower shoes. Rain coat, long sleeved cotton shirts, sturdy workpants, warm jumper, jacket, beanie, scarf. Swim suit, sun hat. Headlamp. Water bottle. Itch cream for bites, natural mozzie repellant. Tough gardening gloves. Snacks if you want something particular to have between meals.  

Because it is a great way to get to know conscious people and to learn about sustainability and work outdoors. I did WWOOFING before in New Zealand and in the Netherlands. I think it is important to have a videocall to get to know eachoter and see if it clicks.

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 joined to work with the land while traveling, and meeting interesting people! I am interested in agriculture, culture, gardening and working with the land and want to incorporate such activities while I travel.

Bundagen Community, Coffs Harbour, N.S.W. Village living. (Woofer may be asked to do some days with other village members.) Private dwelling with seperate living area for Woofer. Only 1 Woofer at a time please.

I joined WWOOF because I have always wanted to travel to Australia and this seems like a perfect way to do so. A few of my friends have used WWOOF before and had great experiences. I am eager to have an adventure, travel, meet new people, and learn new skills.
