Why I became a WWOOF Host
I WOOFED in Tasmania many years ago and loved the experience. I have since developed this site, which, in the past, has been used an artistic hub and a Yoga retreat centre. I have turned what was once a huge lawn area into as series of vegetable gardens and orchard beds, and including a shed for the chicken ‘helpers’. I am now needing more help with site maintenance.
