July WWOOFing

Looking to WWOOF in for the month of July and maybe even the first half of August. I prefer to be learning about farming organic fruits, vegetables, or spices (I'm not too great with animals). I'm just graduating college with an engineering degree, so if your children need help with math I could tutor them.

WWOOF Brazil and Colombia

I have been having an amazing experience WWOOFing in Brazil. The people here are incerdibly freindly and the wildlife at the farm is beautiful. There are toucans, Macaws and capybaras everywhere. I would like to make my way to Colombia and WWOOF there but there is some difficulty in accessing the hosts list from WWOOF indipendents Latin America. If any one knows how to access this list please help.

A monkey plays in the trees,

energy in the breeze

and hears a bird singing

 

Ive seen birds make nests in such odd places but maybe flying all day every day can change a birds perspective to realize home can be any where and it really doesn’t matter where that where is as long as the bird is there feeding its family feeling the love

 

I think we are children, you and me, because we feel the magic of the world. We were told to grow up and we each said…

Can you WWOOF with your dog?

Hello all :-) I'm a newbie here and wondering if I can go WWOOFing with my dog or if that is simply not feasible anywhere. If I can then it allows me to consider longer stays.

Excited to Farm in Costa Rica

Our Interest in WWOOF

We have packed up our lives in London to cycle around South America. It’s part travel and exploration, part challenge (5 miles still seems far...) and part experiencing different ways of living with a focus on sustainability: from education and community building to environmental conservation.



We'd love to learn more about organic and sustainable farming through some hands on experience - check out our blog to see where we are…

Movement

Perusing and researching can be tedious processes! It takes time to explore all the different opportunities that are out there, and I find it distracting to have so many options. Simultaneously, what a beautiful blessing! 

Having so many varied options leaves a lot of space for the individual to determine what inspires them. And now, as I approach our estimated departure date, I feel a need for direction and clarity. 

Conscious choices here we come! Awareness of…

Starting Up

Hi there, I have never blogged in my life, but this is what I came up with so far:

My entire family has gardened since I was in my preteens. Each year we have expanded the number of patches of crops grown in our backyard. We grow tomatoes, herbs, collard greens, peppers, squashes, and more. And each year, we experiment; one year we tried growing pumpkins, one year a watermelon. Recently, we planted a baby apple tree. In short, farming is part of my growing up.

The Adventures Begin

We are all chasing a dream. No matter how big or small, there is something within each of us that drives us to get up in the mornings, and to make particular choices that will hopefully lead us down the path that is most inspiring to our hearts. 

I suppose you could say I've always known I was meant to work abroad, and to contribute to the earth my dedicated heart and hands. To cultivate health and happiness, sustainable environments, community, that is my goal. 

Finally,…

Traveling Aussie

Hi there,

I am a 31 year old Australian from Melbourne, about to make his way to South America for the first time. I am very interested in food and cooking and would love to work and live on an organic farm to learn more about agriculture. I am fluent in French and am very eager to learn Spanish. A friend of mine who did WWOOFing in Brazil a few years ago said that it was a great way to learn the language and he really enjoyed living with a rural community.

 I hope you would be…
