I joined WWOOF in the UK many years ago.. I travelled round Scotland WWOOFing, and Pete and I have WWOOFed together in the UK and Spain, before we had kids. Back then I wanted to learn about organic farming and what the life would be like. Having learnt quite a lot in the meantime, I now want to know about all the things listed above, how it all works in reality and in practice, in the Australian environment, so - I have a lot to learn! But we can be really helpful while we learn!

I joined Wwoof to find a place where I can contribute and share authentic moments in harmony. I would love to learn new manual skills, but also gain knowledge about growing fruits and vegetables. We always learn what our soul needs to learn from the people we meet, and I’m also very curious to discover more of these teachings!

I think that volunteering is a super important part of building community and supporting conservation and environmental programs, as well offering so much knowledge to those who take part. I've WWOOFed before in Europe whilst travelling, and currently volunteer once a week at my local conservation committee, and all of these experiences have been invaluable to my understanding of ecosystems and the plants and animals within them, as well as filling me with the joys of spending a day outside getting dirty, making things, and meeting wonderful people!

I'm enjoying WWOOF cause I want to learn new skills and share my background with others. I'm looking not only for a job but i'm looking for a place which I can call family.

375 acre forest and farm with a majority in plantation forestry. Cattle on recovering / developing pasture - using rotational grazing methods facilitated by electric fencing. Firewood business operated by a lessee / land sharer using coppice E. globulus resource.  Biochar kiln to utilise waste wood. Large vegetable garden. Hot house with raised beds. Substantial composting.

Strathbogie Estate is small vineyard and we are setting up a garden based on Permaculture principles. Strathbogie Estate titleholders Bruno and Karin’s aim, is to create a haven to not only enjoy for themselves but to share with the surrounding and greater community. Using their very own single vineyard, brother (Bruno) and sister (Karin) manage the end to end development and trade of their finest harvest. As Bruno focuses on the marketing and trade of the wine, Karin lives and works on the property producing a distinctive, organic foundation. Keeping the same winemakers since the establishment of the vineyard, Bruno and Karin understand the importance of experience and expertise in delivering an outstanding product. Through environmentally sound and sustainable practices the vineyard remains in balance with nature. Strathbogie Estate is committed to growing healthy and beautiful tasting grapes that produce exceptional wine. We optimise the potential of terroir expression in the wine by ensuring every vine is hand pruned and grapes hand-picked. Due to its tendency to rupture the grape berry, machine harvesting is regarded as unkind on vines. Once a breach of the grape has occurred the skin phenolics leach into the juice. As a result, a loss of delicacy in the flavour occurs. This particularly recognized in the more delicate wines.

Five Oaks Farm is a rose and olive farm located in the beautiful Sunshine Coast Hinterland. Not certified but organic principles and practices used. The farm is home to rescue horses and two gorgeous dogs. Koala habitat has been planted. Walking distance to Mapleton and close to Montville and Maleny. The Farm is non-smoking. Accommodation is very comfortable and the food is great (I have been told!).

I joined WWOOF because I have a deep interest in both animals and agriculture. I grew up in the countryside of Japan, where I helped my family grow rice and vegetables from a young age. These experiences made me comfortable with farm work and taught me the value of working with nature. I’m also a member of my university’s equestrian club, so I truly enjoy taking care of animals and spending time outdoors. While there are WWOOF programs in Japan, I wanted to experience life on a farm overseas to challenge myself and broaden my perspective. I also hoped to improve my English and communication skills by working closely with local people. Unlike studying abroad in a classroom, WWOOF gives me the chance to connect with others through real, shared work. In the future, I hope to live and work abroad, and I believe this experience will help me take the first step toward that goal.

My name is Eunjung Kim from Korea and I'm a woman. I'm applying because I want to experience whoop life. I have a Thai friend who is a man. Both of them are new to Australia, unfamiliar with this trip, and don't know much about it yet. I hope it will be a beneficial time to help each other during our whoop life together. I prefer vegetarianism. My Thai friend also eats egg, dairy, and fish with vegetarian food. We honestly don't like Western food, so if you give us the ingredients, we'll cook on our own. We love animals, so it doesn't matter if you take care of animal farms or pets. Please contact us a lot

I've been organically and chemical-free orientated for 15 years give or take, recently volunteering on an organic city farm and enjoying the opportunities to learn. I enjoy getting my hands dirty and connecting with like-minded people.

I join WWOOF because I like to share part of my visa with Australian people : learn how do you live, discover your routine, but also to help you ! It also helps me improve my English. I find that woofing is a good exchange: I help you in your daily life, and you allow me to live with people from a country that I love very much.

Our property is a beautiful lifestyle property with animals, located just an hour’s drive from Sydney CBD. Set on a scenic and serene landscape, it’s home to a variety of animals, including horses, two German Shepherds, a cat, chickens, ducks, and ponies. The property feels like a mini zoo, full of life and charm, offering a unique and peaceful environment. While it feels like you’re in the middle of a tranquil forest, the property is only 49 kilometers from Sydney CBD, providing the perfect blend of rural serenity and easy access to city attractions. From the stunning sunsets to the open fireplace evenings, the property offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere ideal for enjoying nature and relaxation. Our property is more than just a place; it’s a retreat where animals and people coexist in harmony. It’s not a working farm but a private sanctuary designed for a relaxed and fulfilling lifestyle, where the sounds of nature and the laughter of children create a lively and inviting space.

In 2024 Agnes and James left Sydney, buying a 25-hectare plot near Krambach, in the beautiful Mid North Coast region of NSW. Not long after, Claire, Agnes’ sister and agronomist joined, together with Olivier a compost enthusiast and passionate cook. Together with the help of regular visitors and friends we’re slowly bringing our patch back to life, restoring soil health, reintroducing native plants, and finding better ways to grow our food. We are applying Syntropic farming, an innovative approach to regenerative agriculture, to our plot of land . Thinking holistically about regeneration including water sustainability (keyline design, creek restoration, maximise water retention in soil), energy sustainability leveraging solar and gravity, food self-sufficiency, maximise biodiversity and life, investing in the community and having fun !

We have a truffle farm and produce the French Black Perigord truffle. We also practice regenerative farming with the use of a Pedigree South Devon cattle herd. We have several calves born at our farm each year. Our farm is situated in the Central highlands of Victoria in a sub alpine region. We are 700 metres above sea level. Our property is surrounded by well established large trees and has been thoughtfully designed and manicured to prevent as little disturbance as possible. In 2022 we completed the construction of our home on the farm and designed it in such a way that it has a light footprint on the property and has views to our livestock regardless of which paddock they reside. It is truly a pleasure to live in this region, in this house and doing what we love on a daily basis.

25 acres of stunning conservation land encompassing pasture, wetlands & native bush. We are right on the tranquil waters of Mangrove Creek where you can fish, swim and canoe all year round and we are surrounded by sandstone mountains, incredible bush and unique Aboriginal sacred areas. Great bushwalking all around! Volunteering includes weeding, gardening, making new garden beds, making compost teas, care of chickens and bush regeneration. There is an extensive bush food garden on the property. We also do lots of preserving produce and love making medicines, tinctures, salves etc. We also love eco-dyeing and have a big shed with lots of wood working equipment. Another resident who lives in his homemade tiny house on our property is a master craftsman and is always willing to share his knowledge. We often do building and art projects as well. Accom for 1-6 people in the rustic separate farmhouse (complete with sauna!), or you are welcome to camp if you prefer. Children possible. Stays of minimum 1 week, longer stays preferred. We are a relaxed and fun family (with adult children!) who enjoy music, great food, and all lifes adventures and we look forward to meeting you! This is a great opportunity for couples or friends as you will have a house to yourselves for most of the time. There is good wi-fi. It’s great if you have your own vehicle but we can pick you up from public transport nearby. We have hosted young and older people from all over the world and most become like family. 🤗

I join woofing To see different small scale farms and learn more about organic et regenerative agriculture. I need to learn as many things as I Can to build my own farm in the future

When my mother visited Japan as I was studying PhD there, she was impressed by the advanced agriculture with flourished rice harvests, premium fruits like shine muscat, and high-quality meats and seafoods. Given the fact that the agriculture in Vietnam has been ovelooked and neglected for decades because of the industrialization trend in manufacturing across the country, we feel concerned that it is not straightforward to get the sector back on track. Furthermore, when returning to Vietnam after my PhD, it is a big surprise to me that many agri-food imported from Australia is available in the market such as grapes, oranges, milk, etc., which would have been unrealistic before the pandemic. Additionally, as working in a rural hospital, I usually encounter many patients who work as farmers in a traditional way. As a result, their chief complaints are usually neck pain, back pain, and hand/knee pain as symptoms of spondylosis and osteoarthritis. While traveling with my mother will be a joyful and adventurous trip for us, I also want to explore more not only the advancement in healthcare but also the beauty of nature and the development of the agriculture in Australia. I hope those valuable experiences will bring me an innovative insight into the way of taking care of people and environment around us.

Our small plot intensive farm called MAD Rams Potager Gardens is at it infancy stage of development. We are committed to a number of farming methodologies which include permaculture/ no dig principles and Aboriginal traditional agricultural practices which we believe make a our farm somewhat unique.

We also have a beautiful historically rich spacious home which we are happy to share with volunteer WWOOFers...we also welcome volunteers to gain an understanding of Aboriginal culture and the Australian culture which makes this beautiful country unique...our farm has some challenges but we have a vision which we believe every volunteer will be able to leave an eco footprint...we hope to foster great relationships shared knowledge and some wisdom in our exchange...MAD Rams Potage Gardens will be one if the first market gardens in our area which is exciting and challenging yet definitely rewarding. We have amazing birdlife and animals we are surrounded by one if the most intact temperate forests in the world and a beautiful bay. We are also located in the gorgeous night skies of the aroura Australia lights....We chose this beautiful place because if it's dependable rainfall community and opportunity to give back to the land and eco system in keeping with Aboriginal custodial tradition.
