Search WWOOF Oz

WWOOF provides me the unique opportunities to encounter different hosts, like organic farm, restaurant, educational farm, eco-village etc. The works offered by hosts were such a new experience or trial for me, which I think I can't get it in Hong Kong. Japanese host sent me a picture when she got a new born baby and Korea host invited me to have a dinner when she came to Hong Kong. These are the reasons that pushing me to go wwoofing country by country.

I join WWOOF is it will enable me to learn more about organic farming in Australia. I volunteer in a Not For Profit farm in Singapore at least once a week, now that I have retired from my regular job as an Accountant. I also like to travel and meet people and the WWOOF experience will give me this opportunity.

We are a hobby farm located at Swan Bay, less known and much quieter part of Port Stephens. We have 2 girls, 11 and 8, 2 male cats, a dog (tho his family often visit or stay at another part of the farm), 30 chooks, 20 sheep, 20 cows, and perhaps some quails by the time you’re reading this. We try to grow a lot of our food to show the children the reality of life. We moved to Port Stephens in 2018 from Sydney to escape the noise and traffic, and to be more self sufficient and to give our children a different childhood experience, closer to nature so they know where food comes from, and hopefully when they’re older they know how to grow food. Our farm is a small 150acres, but the homestead is less than 1 acre, and my garden is where we mostly need help. We both work part time, but unfortunately, often can’t match our hours so that we can be in the garden together. We believe we never stop learning, can learn from each other, and we have so much to share. We also love exchanging life experience. I love cooking, eating, and sharing food. Our hope is to have more ‘garden to plate’ days in our weeks.

'Cedar Park' is a small family run 4-star resort  in the upper rainforests of far north Queensland. Our acreage includes tropical fruit forest, vegetable gardens, chook pen, bees and enclosures for care & rehabilitation of rescued native animals. We are surrounded by a creek with swimming holes and national park rainforest. Volunteering includes care & maintenance of gardens, lodge & animals. You will be comfortably accommodated in a room in the lodge. Laundry & bedding supplied. Shared dinners, food supplied for other meals, any diet catered for.

I am currently in Hong Kong, would like to be a WWOOFer once Australia’s borders open. I hope to stay in different farms for 2 weeks or 1 month to know how they operate the farm and how they deal with challenges.

I have basic knowledge of nutrition and farming, I am healthy and mature with good working attitude. I hope to contribute my best to the farms and gain experiences from the works. I speak English, Cantonese, Mandarin and simple Japanese. Love to meet people and make friends, I am eager to know the life story of the hosts.

Nine Planets lies at the end of the Chapman River Sanctuary adjacent Lashmar's Lagoon Sanctuary and about 600 meters from Antechamber Bay, one of the largest, most pristine and undisturbed beaches on Kangaroo Island's coast. The Chapman River teams with bream and the beach is a sanctuary for endangered hooded plovers which nest in the sand just above the high water line in late spring. Garfish, tommies, flathead and mullet can be caught from the beach if you are adept at shore fishing. Lashmar's Lagoon is a sanctuary for waterbirds and teems with black swans, ducks, pelicans, sacred ibis and other birds. In winter and spring black swans grazing in pasture adjacent the lagoon outnumber farmers' sheep. Kangaroos, wallabies and goannas usually visit daily and dozens of bird species including magpies, currawongs, superb fairywrens, honeyeaters, thornbills, red browed finches and silver eyes call in for a drink and/or bath, whilst wedge tailed eagles and the very rare white bellied sea eagle may be seen soaring overhead. At night the calls of boobook owls can be heard in the distance. It is often windy, but rarely very hot or very cold.

I joined WWOOF to experience living on a farm and learning from committed hosts! I also hope to interact with, and give back what I can for animals and nature. Looking forward to meeting people who care about our living environment 🙂

I was inspired by my friend's experience through his years of volunteer works with numerous hosts from WWOOF. He found his peace and balance in life through volunteering in farm works. I look forward to making new friends and the opportunity to discover how my life can be enriched through serving others too.

To have the opportunity to live closer to nature and learn from people who grow food for a living regardless of geographical location. My first WWOOFing experience was in Awhitu Peninsula, New Zealand back in 2008 and I completed a PDC in 2016 with Milkwood in Sydney. Since then, I've also had to opportunity to visit and get to know farmers living in the interior highlands of Sarawak, who grow heirloom rice using traditional methods inherited from their ancestors.

I want to continue exploring the Aussie scape, to invest time into properties and people who share similar values and ways of being. I want to continue to learn about different systems and place and give back what it is that I can from the knowledge and skill that I have developed over the past wee while. This platform is a way of doing and finding all this, a meeting point of my world and the world of others...which really we all share.

Our future dream is to own a small hobby farm, so our hope with the WWOOFing experience is to meet passionate farmers who can share their knowledge and skills with us and give us a taste of the farm life. Being health-conscious, we would also love to support local farmers who grow organic produce - it is how all food should be grown!

Mid North Coast River Side property keen to build and maintain a sustainable farm & business! We live 1 hour north west of Taree NSW. It's a little community of Tree huggers, biodynamic, free range & beef farmers, through to sustainable life style dwellers. The area is littered with beautiful rainforests, free flowing rivers, and amazing water falls! All fresh water for drinking and swimming!

I've always been interested in farming but never really had the chance to get into it. I'm interested in crops, livestock, food, beekeeping, winemaking, and just about everything that takes place on a farm. I'm also eager to travel around Australia, especially outside of the cities. I'm especially interested in visiting Tasmania. I look forward to helping out and learning new skills on your farm, and to having a great time with awesome people. I also hope that I can be helpful to you in a time when there's not too many travelers around.

I’ve always been interested in volunteering since I was a kid and I enjoy meeting new people and sharing stories and ideas with others. Learning new skills and engaging with local community, as well as furry animal friends, makes life exciting and adventurous. I am eager to contribute, learn, and experience the self sufficient and sustainable way of life on Aussie farms.

To experience something organic where I can gain valuable and relevant knowledge of things that I consider important and life-changing. To meet like-minded people with a wealth of knowledge that they're willing to share. To connect with a variety of people and exchange stories and to have fun.
