How I did it: I researched farms for months on different search engines. I emailed a couple of places that seemed the best fit. I emailed a few more. I set up a time frame and region I would like to work at. I went to a place where the lady said she wanted to build a school and a community garden. It was a huge flowered lie. I was alone, did nothing, lived in a black mold infested trailer in the middle of nowhere. I called a friend the wwoofed previously and went to the farm she went to. Perfect. People existed, food existed, experiences to enjoy existed. I lived in a small town called Cambria by San Luis Obispo. I lived in a treehouse and worked hard all day. I ate avocados everyday and cracked creamy nuts for snacks. I fell in a creek and baked honey oatmeal date cookies. I laughed and I dug in the earth. Read how I did it… 1 month ago
and now I’m planning on going in Spring!
I have no jobs or school to hold me back, I can go back to school the following fall or spring if I am so inclined. :)
soo excited! :)))))
my goal is to learn something about: building, mud architecture, greenhouses, raising dairy goats and llamas! :D
so stoked!:)))))) 3 months ago
I WWOOFed in Italy, a small farm near Alba. Well it wasn’t a farm so much as garden and an abandoned hazelnut grove that needed to be revitalized. We also relocated a lot of wood (partially from the hazelnut pruning) for chopping and stacking. We also did some work in a nearby vineyard tucking vines back into place and exposing then grapes to sunlight so they can ripen. It was a really good experience and I loved the huge dinners with my host and other workers. 7 months ago

I really want to volunteer at wwoof for about a month in 2012 in summer, before I head off to uni. What I wanted to know is, where would you reccomend I go? I'd like to go far away (I live in Europe) but I'm thinking the flights might cost too much.. 8 months ago
With only a few months before I move away to uni, I want to do some volunteer work with WWOOF. It’s silly to have all this idle time.
I bought a subscription to WWOOF Canada, and am hoping to volunteer for a week or two on a ranch or vineyard.. something like that, in a place with lots of greenery. I want to feel useful! 8 months ago
