Why I became a WWOOF Host

We became WWOOF hosts as we thought that it would be a good way to meet new people from new places while getting some help with work on our farm.

Organic/Biological methods we use

We farm organically meaning that we do not use any artificial inputs such as chemicals or soluble fertilisers.
