I'm interested in learning new practical skills and gaining on farm experience. It would be great to meet and connect with sustainable growers and producers and volunteer some time around other commitments.

I have recently planted an orchard of 40 fruit trees plus rainforest trees with plans for expansion into herb and vegetable growing. Ocean views and breeze, accommodation in comfortable cabin with rainwater tank and camp cooker, no electricity, seperate to house. 15mins to beautiful Bermagui township and 5mins to Mimosa Rocks national Park, Aragannu and Bunga surf beaches. I would be very appreciative of any assistance with weeding, planting, mulching, mowing and if possible Handyperson work of cabinetry and fencing but not crucial. This year I have incorporated a Kenyan top bar beehive and am learning as I go, it’s given me motivation to plant a variety of flowering plants. I am a trained Herbalist / Naturopath with 2 school aged children and 1 border collie dog. Sometimes I work away and need assistance with houseminding and looking after Lunah the dog.

I've just fledged my youngest child and I'm up for new adventures. WWOOF seems like a safe and fun way to be a solo traveler. As I age, I am becoming more interested in sustainability in all it's guises - food, housing, internal wellbeing. I know very little about gardening and permaculture, but I'd like to learn more. During this year of pandemic I've been delighted to grow veggies in my urban back garden. It's been a lovely creative outlet to make soup from my own ingredients. What do I hope to achieve by WWOOFing? Such an interesting question. I don't know and I'm leaning in to the discomfort of not knowing. At the very least, connection to new folk and new ideas with the opportunity to exchange my skills and ideas.

Hello, we are Katrina and Finn and we live at Beachwood. It is a 2 acre patch of land that is part of the Eco-Village in the beautiful Currumbin Valley. Situated in the hinterlands of the Gold Coast, Queensland, we are just ten minutes from the BEACH and half an hour from all a city can offer. The bus pictured is the WWOOFers accommodation! So far, people love it! Katrina is an architect/builder/ and Finn is a sculptor/builder/musician we have a lot to share with a willing worker and we always try to have fun while we create! We speak French, German and welcome all cultures... Here on Beachwood we grow as much of our own food as possible. We are building our own unique timber framed  house, as well as maintaining the land and undertaking a number of other interesting projects.

To experience Australia's diversity of landscapes, culture and people, whilst learning more about permaculture, syntropic agroforestry, and regenerative agriculture.

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.

I’m looking to purchase a farm in the next 5 years. Prior to that I am looking to experience life on a working property where I can see what life on the land with animals and crops is really like.

I would like to travel and get to know Australia a little bit better by helping and volunteering on different kind of farms. I always wanted to work somewhere outside in the nature with animals and on organic farms with vegetables and fruits.

Last year I booked a one way ticket overseas, alas that dream did not come true so here I am following a different path with just as many cool options. I want to travel around to gain experience on the land, learn new skills and see different lifestyles and landscapes - I am pretty keen to see where this journey could lead. Some goals I have are to read more books, work with animals, ride more horses and drive a tractor. I want to learn how to build a house.

I would like to meet people and gain insight into other lifestyles.I am really keen to learn about living on a farm plot and the daily skills/struggles that are needed.

I am having a gap year (or two) to experience life in a different way. I want to learn. I want to share. I want to combine what I can do with what others can show and teach me.

Our small plot intensive farm called MAD Rams Potager Gardens is at it infancy stage of development. We are committed to a number of farming methodologies which include permaculture/ no dig principles and Aboriginal traditional agricultural practices which we believe make a our farm somewhat unique. We are want g to create an ecologically supportive sustainable farm which has the ability to adapt to changing climatic conditions while also bring to the local community both traditional foods and introduced foods which complement each other rather than compete. We also have a beautiful historically rich spacious home which we are happy to share with volunteer WWOOFers...we also welcome volunteers to gain an understanding of Aboriginal culture and the Australian culture which makes this beautiful country unique...our farm has some challenges but we have a vision which we believe every volunteer will be able to leave an eco footprint...we hope to foster great relationships shared knowledge and some wisdom in our exchange...MAD Rams Potage Gardens will be one if the first market gardens in our area which is exciting and challenging yet definitely rewarding. We have amazing birdlife and animals we are surrounded by one if the most intact temperate forests in the world and a beautiful bay. We are also located in the gorgeous night skies of the aroura Australia lights....We chose this beautiful place because if it's dependable rainfall community and opportunity to give back to the land and eco system in keeping with Aboriginal custodial tradition. We welcome you to consider joining us for part of our journey and be part of MAD Rams establishment... We will also open our home for you to experience traditional and home cooked meals.

At least; To meet natural farmers willing to mentor and instruct in exchange for my time and energies. At most; To forge strong relationships, make lifelong friends and have a real part in building and keeping great farms growing great food.

We joined WWOOF because we are interested in organic and sustainable practices and a more sustainable way of travelling. We are excited to learn new skills in the hope that we can apply them to a cute little place of our own in the future.

We joined WWOOFing to connect with people who have created the space to experience organic farming and share it with the world. We hope to learn through others and apply it throughout our life however we can.
