• A other German engineer had recommended this Plattform to get in touch with the locals. He sad: if you want to work longer and can give a hard hand then go with wwoof. So, I’m use to it to trust my feelings after a conversation. It was a very nice guy and here I am. I would love to prof myself and my abilities. And as I sad: Stay a bit longer on one area and I really like to give a hand where it’s needed. Looking forward to hear from you.

I've joined WWOOF because I have recently graduated from uni and am now seeking new adventures, skill sets, and connections with amazing people and places.

We joined WWOOF because it seems like an amazing way to learn about organic farming practices, give back to the land, and extend our travels. We both live a vegan lifestyle and enjoy eating locally and sustainably. We would love the opportunity to get a hands on experience and learn about food practices, where our food is coming from and how organics are farmed in beautiful Australia. We are looking to have fun while working hard to earn what we eat.

I am taking a long slow trip up down and around the east coast and would like to experience both large and small scale agricultural systems. Engaging with socially responsible people and produces to enable - A desire to learn and further develop my abilities first hand from people and places. To contribute to something meaningful and more sustainable in the big picture. I love soil! I dislike the word dirt in reference to soil.

For our 12 month van trip it seems like a great way to learn some practical skills and see some different ways of doing things that maybe we could incorporate into our own little garden at home. We would love to start keeping bees and chooks in our yard to start 'closing the loop' in our backyard.

I was talking with my cousin about the felling I was having about traveling and she told me the name of this page. Searching on internet and looking some reviews I realise this is exactly for I'm looking for. I thing this will be an incredible experience for me to meet people and learn about the farm work.

We live on 280 acres, with 1 of 2 sons & small dog, nestled under the highest peaks of the Grampians National Park, 20 kms south of Halls Gap. We operate the Grampians Paradise Camping & Caravan Parkland, a beautiful, small camping ground with shady trees, gardens, small lake & wetlands. Native birds, animals & frogs abound. Bright starry skies. Work with us on environmental projects, fencing, gardening, maintenance, personal vegie garden and fruit orchard, firewood collection, ground works, jobs about the camping ground, occasional building projects (Aidan is very into Traditonal Timber Framing and nearly always has a project on the go). Caravan accom for 1-2 people with own cooking facilities and the use of the camp kitchen and amenities in the camping ground. Require own bedding. Campground amenities building has bathrooms and  laundry. No children. Some independent cooking and possibly some shared meals with family. Prefer No Smoking, and No Smoking Indoors under any circumstance. Can pick up from public transport at Pomonal (bus  Tues, Fri and Sun), Ararat, Stawell or Halls Gap (V Line Services - train and bus). See photos on our website. PLEASE NOTE: we have chemically sensitive family members, so will ask that no perfumes/fragranced products or scented washing powders, deodorants or shampoos are used before coming into our home. We are happy to provide unscented laundry powder, shampoo & soap as well as any advice.  Please note that some essential oils are okay, but please speak with us before using them. Having transport is a huge advantage in this location as there is no immediate public transport, and many of the bushwalks in the Grampians require a trip in the car to access start points. Having said that the new Grampians Peaks Trail, a 13 day trek through the Grampians will be passing within walking distance of our property, so at some time in the future there will be great access to this incredible walk - we will upate this note once they open the Redman Bluff section of the Peaks Trail.

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 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.

We run miniature belted Galloway cattle on 3 properties (Georges creek, Tallangatta & Sandy Creek) in a very scenic pristine beautiful quiet location in North East victoria.  Close to Tallangatta township with supermarket & other facilities. Our main property consists of 150 acres overlooking Lake Hume, made up of grazing land & bushland. Livestock incl a traditional Belted Galloway cattle stud, Wiltshire Horn sheep & rare poultry breeds. We are very relaxed & easy-going, meals will be with the family of 6 (4 children, aged 6-17) so you will be part of our family. You will experience many things such as cutting firewood, fencing, animal husbandry, growing vegetables & fruit, showing cattle, etc.  Accommodation is in a cozy caravan beside our home, with wireless internet and mobile phone reception. We can pick you up and drop off from Wodonga train station or Albury train/bus station or Albury airport. Recreation activities in the area include fishing, kayaking lake and rivers, bush walking, bike riding on rail trail.

I joined wwoof for a bunch of reasons. I love nature, I love organic things, the culture around it and the people who provide it. For about 5 years I've kept meeting people from overseas and had them talk about how beautiful Australia is and I've had very little idea of where they were talking about when they mentioned some of these Australian spots. So I decided this year to travel around and see the wonders that Australia has to offer. I'd heard about woofing before realised  when I looked at the website how incredibly the opportunities offered were so I decided to join, learn a bunch of things, meet some lovely people and have amazing experiences

I joined WWOOF through American Institute for Foreign Study (AIFS) and I am interested in learning about life on Australian organic and permaculture farms and learning about growing and producing organically. I am hard working and willing to learn.

I joined WWOOF because: 1. I refuse to be just a normal tourist, running around, photographing things and rushing on. So I want to experience Australia from the australian point of view. 2. I want to learn new things and skills, whether farming practices or skills with tools or animals. I am just open to anything.
