Product Information

Keep the following in mind so you and your host don’t encounter any problems when it comes to expectations. Something that was wonderful would be "outta sight" (so great or unbelievable, you just couldn't take it all in.) Remember why you’re there: Being in a new place, it’s tempting to go out sightseeing. It’s allowed provided you’re done with your duties for the day. All the good food, meeting new people, the beautiful vistas and local sights and sounds are secondary as you are there to do volunteer work. To gain the respect of your hosts, don’t hesitate to get your hands dirty, be responsible and respectful of your work.

Aside from those mentioned earlier, WWOOFers will have the opportunity to assist with animal care, weeding and help with harvesting. While a certain level of fitness is required for these tasks, you don’t need to be exceptionally fit. Please keep in mind that tasks in farms change on a daily basis, so while you may be given an idea of what duties to perform, these can change. HOW WWOOFING WORKS WWOOFing has become very popular.

WWOOFing stands for ‘World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms.’ The volunteer or ‘WWOOFer,’ gets the opportunity to spend time in an organic farm, learn what it’s like, how it works and what sustainable agriculture is all about. During your stay in the farm, you don’t have to pay for board or lodging. It is not a monetary exchange program. Try something different. If you’ve been doing the same thing over and over during your vacation, then it’s time for a change. It’s not exactly your typical vacation, but one where you can learn new things and do something adventurous. Fast cars and fast lives. The '60s were an era of rebellion so, to no surprise, that means some exciting car lingo. Let's take a look: Learn the intricacies of farming. Organic farming is not just about planting and feeding animals. When you take in WWOOF, you will learn firsthand the relationship between the community and food production. WWOOFing gives you the chance to learn all about organic farming and do real, physical work. Among the things you will discover while WWOOFing are making wine, beekeeping, creating straw houses, growing vegetables and more. You can read about these things in school and online, but there is nothing quite like getting down and dirty and being in a real farm, and that is what you get here.

Chinese fire drill: When four people get out of a car at a red light and exchange places in the carSet criteria: Before you apply as a volunteer, ask yourself why you’re joining and what type of experience you want to gain. Do you want to work with animals? Do you want to plant vegetables? Or would you prefer to learn how to create stone walls and prepare local food? Define your goals and you will have an easier time figuring out what to do. In other words, WWOOF benefits both host and volunteer, and a lot of volunteers enjoy their experience so much they end up becoming farmers. As a host, this is the right time to spread word about organic farming and its benefits. If you’re interested in becoming one, simply get in touch with the WWOOF in your country and they will help with the procedure. Having the latest and newest of anything, then as now, is of extreme importance to those who are truly hip. Don’t expect fancy lodging: This isn’t a five star hotel, it is farm, so you could end up sleeping in a barn loft, basement bunkhouse or tepee. In some farms you could be staying in a comfortable room with amenities, while in another you may have to set up your own tent. Location matters: You won’t be spending all your time in the farm so choose a location that you will enjoy. For instance, you could choose a farm that is close to camping trails. Or you could go to farm that is adjacent to important locations in the area or near public transport.
