Why I became a WWOOF Host
We joined WWOOF in 2009 to get help in our garden & on our farm, and also so that our young children could enjoy having new people in their lives and learn about other cultures. We continued hosting for around 10 years, but have had a break since Covid. Now that our children have all left home, we would enjoy spending time with young people again and getting some help on our farm. We also enjoy teaching people about environmentally sustainable farming techniques and sharing Australian farm life experience.
