My first experiences with WWOOFing were in the late nineties where I tried out a few long weekends. I enjoyed it enough to leave my job as a librarian and spend a year WWOOFing in the UK, Ireland and Spain. I have a great affection for goats so I spent a lot of that year clambering, making cheese and failing to keep the kids out of trouble. Although I began WWOOFing as an adult in my 30s, the experience taught me and changed me in a powerful way. And I met some wonderful humans too! I have remained a member ever since. I have a long-standing interest in ethical food, having worked for a specialist cheese shop, and a well-known organic delivery service. I believe that food justice, starting locally, is the necessary foundation for a better world.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. Composition: Cereals, oils and fats, various sugars, milk and milk derivatives, dried egg, derivative of vegetable origin, carob powder, minerals and salt Do not be shy: You’ll be staying at their farm so let them know a bit about you.

Provide some details of your skills. If you don’t have any direct related experience, emphasize other attributes. Are you hard working? Do you take directions well? Will you take ownership of the work assigned to you? Going to go far in helping you land that volunteer spot in the farm. If you’ve got a woodland, vineyard, allotment, garden or farm and adhere to the principles of organic farming sustainability, you are eligible to be a WWOOF host and take in volunteers. Volunteers can provide assistance with your day-to-day tasks and lessen your workload. Another advantage is many volunteers are familiar with bio-dynamic growing and permaculture growing techniques.

Most WWOOF groups use the lower age limit of 18 years old as in most countries people below 18 are considered by law to be children. The good news is that different rules apply in different countries and so some WWOOF groups do take younger people. WWOOF Germany, WWOOF Portugal, WWOOF UK and WWOOF Italy accept younger than 18 but sometimes a letter of consent from your parent or guardian is required.
