WWOOF is a world wide network of organisations that link volunteers with organic farmers, and help people share more sustainable ways of living. In return for volunteer help, WWOOF hosts offer food, accommodation and opportunities to learn about organic lifestyles.
WWOOF organisations publish lists of organic farms, smallholdings and gardeners that welcome volunteer help at certain times. The diversity of hosts available offers a large variety of tasks and experiences.
Volunteer helpers (“WWOOFers”) choose the hosts that most interest them and make direct contact to arrange a stay. Volunteers usually live as part of the family.
WWOOF volunteers do not pay for their stay.
WWOOF hosts do not pay volunteers for their help.
WWOOF organisations usually charge a small fee to hosts and volunteers. This fee helps maintain & develop the network.
