Large backyard garden. I have fruit trees, vegie beds, bee hive and chooks. My house is in walking distance to shopping centre, bus, leisure centre and library. I have some internet access, and bedroom has shower and basin attached. I volunteer in the Grovedale Community Garden(it has a facebook page); in the Grovedale Community Orchard(also has a facebook page); and buy and help with the Grovedale Veggie Box which supplies me with fresh, organic vegetables(also facebook page). From all these places I learn more about how to sustainably garden and look after my chickens.

We are on 10 acres situated on a small rise which gives us a lovely view from our site. We are in the process of completing a new chook run and a verandah for the house. We have a small female Jack Russell dog whom we love very much. We have wonderful neighbours and we are situated near a town called Castlemaine which has alot of cultural activities. We are slowly working on the garden and would like to have your assistance there. Please bring sturdy strong shoes. At the moment in the Summer it is very dry and there are lots of jobs to do tidying up and getting garden beds ready for the Autumn and Spring.

I joined WWOOF because of the whole idea of learning and helping and working with others. I'm also always excited about new experiences and learning new skills. It's also a great opportunity to do so by helping out, sharing, and meet new people. It would be an amazing way to experience Australia differently as a last experience there before moving back to Europe. Working with very produce-focused restaurants around the world these past few years, a more hands on experience, learning about general farming and organic practices makes a lot of sense.

WWOOFing seems like a great way to travel and meet new people. I hope to learn new skills and knowledge along the way and experience different ways of life. I did some WWOOFing with my family when I was very young and although I don't remember a lot about it, my family tell me it was a really fun experience.

I had joined WWOOF in NZ. It was very nice experiences. That's why I would like to join WWOOF in AU again. I would like to know about livestock in AU, and see them as well.

In February I will graduate and in March I will move to Australia. It has been a dream for too many years and at the end I decided to book a one-way ticket to Perth. I will stay there for a year ( I hope) and would like to live as many new experiences as possible. The only thing I know is that I want to live my life to the utmost and do not want to have any regrets. Since the moment I realized that, I decided I wanted a brand-new start, so here I am!

I would like to learn about organic farming and the local life in Australia. I was a Wwoofer in 2015 in New Zealand and stayed for one week with a family. I did some gardening, weeding, animal care and played with the kids. I really enjoyed the because because for me it is the best option to meet locals and learn from their lifes. Before I will start my next job in Germany, I want to clear my mind and regain new energy with a stay on a farm in Australia. This year we would like to start planting our own veggies and fruits in Germany and I hope I will return back to Germany with more experience and useful advices.

WWOOFing is a great way of getting started in a new country. It gives you time to explore an area and plan your travels while not spending money in accommodation. It's also a nice way of getting to know the customs of a place you've never been to before.

Because I want to improve my ability to adapt to differents situations, and also my knowledge in permaculture and sustainable houses. I would like also to improve my english with you ! ; )

My true passion has always been with animals and nature. Being with and taking care of animals is what instantly reloads me with energy and makes me truly happy. Back in Sweden I will eventually start my education to become a vet nurse. Being outside in nature is also something that I always loved, wether it is an adventure, such as hiking, climbing, diving or sailing; or simply just working outside, I always loved it. Anyway, right now things are not as they used to be for any of us with COVID-19. I'm still here in Australia trying to find a place to stay and a volunteer work anywhere in Lisborne and Far North Coast, NSW area. Until the 25 November I will travel up the coast with my friend. My plan is to find a place to stay and do some WWOOFing again because that's something I really enjoy, meeting new people - share stories, knowledge and work outside in nature. Contact me through my number or e-mail in the contact details. I will be able to come and help in the end of November after 25th with what ever you may need. The ideal time to stay for me would be about 3-4 weeks. 2 or 5 weeks is also okay! Hope to see you guys soon! Cheers and love, Alice

To visit other farms. We would like to learn new skills that we have not yet learned. We have visited one farm with other WWOOFers and it is enjoyable. It is a good community where you can meet people from different countries. We have met French and German so far.

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

I really wanted to leave my country and see the world for as long as I can remember. The trips and hollidays I\'ve had so far were very inspiring and helped me to grow as a person. I think it\'s important to learn about other countries and cultures, so I thought about a way to get to know australia better and I decided for myself that working on a farm, with both, animals and/or kind people, would be the perfect way for me to discover this continent. So why did I join? I like the idea of helping each other and creating a bond that goes deeper than just \"employer and employee\". I also hope to get a lot of experience, as well as opportunities to exchange knowledge.

We decided to join WWOOF as a means for contributing towards the lives and livlihoods of farmers in rural communities. We are in a unique position where we can offer our time and skills and thereby hopefully instil a deeper love and respect for our country and its diverse environment in the hearts and hands of our sons.

I live on a small island and I know how important a sense of community is. I love knowing my neighbors and being able to help them with any number of large or mundane tasks. I hope that joining WWOOF will allow me to become integrated into a part of Australian culture where I have the opportunity to make the same meaningful relationships. I want to learn new skills and would love to walk away a sense of impact. I also hope that there is a way i can help rebuild anything that is presently being taken from the horrific wildfires.

Hello. We are a family of 6 (Sons aged 20,18 & 11 year old boy & girl twins) living in Mongolian Gers (yurts) on a sunny property in the beautiful Dandenong Ranges. We have recently moved here and are in the designing and creating phase which is really fun, but there is a lot to do and I'd love some help!  

I love the outdoors and getting my hands dirty on something adventurous! I love to meet and learn from others and am always looking for an opportunity gather new ideas from the people I meet. Life is very short to be worried about the small things.

I enjoyed do WWOOF when I help to other people in your activities or goals. I like to motivated to others. The most important I always bring a nice smile.
