Such a wonderful experience WWOOFing with Richard and Ayesha. They are welcoming, sharing their home, banjos, and their delicious cooking with food fresh from the garden. Work was helping clear and tidy the garden, grape picking and helping to make wine. Lots of live music on while I was there.
MeganWonderful Experience
We stayed for 3 weeks and it was an awesome experience! It's a loving family and we felt right at home ☺️ They are very thankful for all the work you do for them and it's a variety of jobs you get. Everybody is very busy but it's a good opportunity to learn so many new things.
EmmaAbsolutely Awesome
We had an amazing stay with Heather, Rob and of course Dottie their lavender dog. Accommodation and food was excellent, but more importantly we shared lots of memories that we will treasure for the rest of our life. Work was fun and diverse.

Hosting Sassalla was one of those great wwoofing experiences. Not only was she happy, polite and hard working, but she was also really interesting. We loved hearing about her upbringing and education as it was so similar but also so different to our own.
BenGreat Experience
We are very grateful to Sam and Liam for assisting us with tasks in the garden as well as helping with the building of the wood shed. They are always keen to learn new things. They are very pleasant company and we recommend them to any future hosts. We wish them well with their continued travels.

What an incredible stay with Peter and Lyndall! They were such fun hosts! I spent about a week with them and had the opportunity to learn about caring for baby goats, making yogurt, and crafting gin. Their home is conveniently located, just a 30-45 minute bus ride to the CBD.
