Why I became a WWOOF Host
Luigi and I are permaculturists and believe that our connection to food, how we grow it, how we organise ourselves around it, how we connect to the land over it is the most fundamental system change we need to begin regenerating our landscapes and culture.
Coming from the city, we began our own food journey many years ago and value all the time we spent with mentors, educators and farming friends that helped us along the way. In turn, we want to help anyone and everyone who is seeking the same kind of connection.
