We live on 100 acres in the Margaret River region, with a large orchard and kitchen garden that produces a large amount of fruit and vegetables. We focus on regenerative farming, animal ethics, cooking and food production without chemicals. Currently we have chickens, sheep, dogs and cats and human children that go to the local high school but the animal numbers change regularly. We are still growing and developing so there are plenty exciting projects to be involved with.

We join WWOOF because we would like to learn more about growing food,about nature,we would love to learn new different skills and of course meet new beautiful people

Since I'm into food, I started to curious about how the foods grow including vegetables or animals. Also interested in sustainable living practice which many WWOOF hosts are applying so I thought I could learn from them. I'm interested in organic/ permaculture practice, I thought volunteering through WWOOF is the best way to start with.

I would love to continue to build my skills in gardening, permaculture and natural building, and meet interesting people along the way. I have spent some time volunteering in Ladakh on natural farming projects, and in Australia doing some natural building, and would love to explore more volunteering options that involve herb, flower and market gardens. I am also very keen to learn about beekeeping and cheesemaking.

Yandoit Farm is a beautiful 140 acre organic natural farm in Central Victoria and is part of the thriving local communities of Castlemaine, Hepburn & Daylesford. We follow permaculture principles and best practice regenerative farming techniques. We embrace a natural life connected to the land as a path for fun, health and happiness. Our farm is a positive, supportive place where everyone feels hugged. So come and experience great community, learning, conscious & sustainable farm life and lots of fun.

I joined wwoof to learn about the different organic production methods and learn from  farmers' experience.

We have had a plan to help farmers in some way for a couple of years. Now that we have the time without commitments we are able to give our time and knowledge to those in need. We are looking forward to meeting new people and making friendships. Seeing different country and ways of living. We are looking forward to travelling in our beloved 5th wheeler, and use our varied experience to help in any way we can. We love to try new things whether that is working with animals, cooking, growing stuff or new hobbies. We are excited about our new adventure.

We have a passion for travel and meeting people, and decided that we wanted to challenge ourselves in a way to push ourselves out of our comfort zones. When we came across the opportunities that WWOOF provided, it was a perfect fit! We loved the idea of slow travel while gaining insight into the life of the farming families across Australia at the same time. We are passionate about the environment and sustainable living and are eager to learn more about this lifestyle through the eyes of the people that work to put food on our tables. By joining WWOOF we hope to meet a diverse range of new people and become a part of their lifestyle while offering a helping hand wherever we can. Through our work and travel, we aim to learn a range of practical skills that we can apply to our everyday lives and into the future all while forming lasting relationships.

We joined in hope that we'd be able to make contact with like minded hosts that implement either (or all) organic, bio-dynamic or permaculture principles on their respective farms and plan out a year or two worth of experiences across Australia. From the travels and experiences throughout different parts of the country we'd like to have a good understanding of where we'd like to put down roots for our own permacultre farm. It is also very much about exposing our son to many and various life experiences afar of our current modern suburb lifestyle. New lifelong friendships would be an excellent outcome too 🙂

We think is the best way to get to know people from the area, learn about their growing practices and exchange experiences. We would love to meet people with similar interests in farming and to help each other.

I'm absolutely fascinated and devastated with everything I'm studying and want opportunities to learn within a community and develop my own connection to the earth. I really want to work with my body instead of my head.

I joined WWOOF to help out on farms, to learn how to grow organically, to meet cool new people and do something a bit different. It is my dream to one day have my own bit of land and grow my own food, so the skills I learn now wwoofing will be so helpful acheiving my goal. I was born and raised in Karrinyup, in the suburbs of Perth and want to get back in contact with more sustainable and authentic ways of living.

It seems like a better way of working while travelling than the standard way of finding work, having that monetary relationship, worrying about where to live, trying to negotiate wages and all the other humdrum stuff. It sounds like the hosts are willing to share their knowledge, know how and experiences and be friendly at the same time. A very welcome change.

Welcome to my portal. I have one acre of garden; permaculture, rainforest, quarry and wild raspberries, and a hand-built wooden house. I need help with maintenance of land and building. Volunteering includes planting, weeding, composting, landscaping and also painting and oiling of structures. There is scope for creative inventions and carpentry. Located 20 mins walk to the laid-back picturesque old-world town of Mullumbimby which is now becoming gentrified. Buskers play in the main street and there are great healthfood shops, a farmers market and community gardens. The beach is 20 mins drive: Brunswick Heads or Byron Bay. I am a mature woman and welcome mature WWOOFers, as well as younger ones if they have some experience in  above tasks. Accommodation in tent or in house. All diets catered for. No smoking indoors. Prefer Wifi off by 10pm (in support of wildlife as well as my peace of mind).

I joined WWOOF because although working on a farm has been a dream of mine since high school, I have since spent seven years working in an office so I thinks it's about time I went and explored Australia and had a go at farm work. My experience is very minimal but I am very keen and would love to learn lots of new skills, I have some knowledge of gardening as that has interested me since childhood.

We have a beautiful 40 acre horse agistment property, veggie garden & fruit trees and approx. 5 acres bush. 3 min drive to surf beach, bay beach & Inverloch town or 10 min drive to Wonthaggi, a larger town. Push bikes available. We are very interested in living a sustainable lifestyle and hope that our WWOOFers are also interested in living sustainably and learning, and sharing knowledge of this. There are almost always wallabies at our farm and if you are lucky you may see kangaroos, echidnas, wombats & occasional koalas. Work may include harvesting, food collection, composting, mulching, hay carting, weeding, fencing, planting, food preservation.  Sometimes there is some work caring for horses: often all the work is in the garden and paddock maintenance, as the horses are mainly looked after by their owners. Accommodation for up to 3 in our home, although we usually prefer 2. Shared meals, cook together. We eat a healthy, sustainable diet.  Bron is vegan and while Ray eats everything, many meals are vegan or vegetarian.  Vegetarians & vegans catered for.  No children, no smoking, all stays negotiable on application. Please let us know your available dates when you apply and the length of time that you would like to WWOOF here. (1 to 2 weeks preferred).

I am looking for experiences that expand my perspective of how it is possible to thrive in today's world with purpose and integrity. Moreover, I believe that living with people is a great way to allow deeper connections to happen. I think that WWOOFing is an excellent opportunity to learn about & experience regenerative living, meet inspiring people on a deep level as well as enjoy quiet time in Nature.

My work and studies shed an insight into why I want to start WWOOFing. I am passionate about sustainable resource management and agriculture but have spent most of my career at a desk.

I am itching to get outdoors and gain some practical skills and experience on the land. I grew up in the Hunter Valley and have fond memories of riding quad bikes, milking cows, and collecting eggs on friends' farms. I've had a bit of experience in tree planting, floral data collection and habitat assessments through my degree.
