"Connecting People to a More Sustainable Way of Life" WWOOF is a grassroots movement that connects visitors - known as WWOOFers - with organic and sustainable growers around the world. Since 1971, WWOOF has fostered cultural and educational exchanges built on trust and non-monetary exchange, helping to create a more sustainable global community. 🌱 Through WWOOF, people from diverse backgrounds come together, united by shared values and a passion for living in harmony with the earth. By becoming a WWOOF member, you’ll actively contribute to the global ecological movement while supporting farmers who nourish their communities. WWOOF offers the opportunity to travel the world, connect with local communities, and discover alternative ways of living that are rooted in sustainability. Since its inception in 1971, WWOOF has connected over 100,000 volunteers with more than 12,000 host farms across 130 countries, promoting a more socially and environmentally sustainable world. As a decentralized nonprofit network, WWOOF is made up of locally based organizations whose staff understand the unique cultures, languages, and communities they serve. Many of these organizations have close relationships with their hosts, ensuring an authentic and supportive experience for WWOOFers. Together, these national WWOOF groups are united under the Federation of WWOOF Organisations (FoWO). 🌍 Discover more about WWOOF and how you can get involved at wwoof.net/about or check out our new mobile App!
