Chi \u00e8 un WWOOFer<\/strong>: a person visiting a WWOOF Host (organic farmer) who helps with day-to-day activities while learning about organic farming techniques and sustainable lifestyles.<\/p>\n

As a WWOOFer, you will be taking part in the daily life of your host family or community and sharing accommodation and meals with them.<\/p>\n

You can learn practical knowledge in organic farming and sustainable living on farms, small rural realities, family gardens, orchards, vineyards, urban gardens, cooperatives, etc. that share the WWOOF philosophy.<\/p>\n

Please bear in mind that WWOOF is not a paid job; hosts do not offer monetary compensation.<\/p>\n

You are responsible for contacting the hosts and makeing arrangements for your stay: we cannot help you with this.<\/p>\n

You are also responsible for obtaining your visa and paying your transportation and personal expenses.<\/p>\n

Chi \u00e8 un WWOOF Host<\/b>: \u00a0a farmer or cultivator who wishes to host WWOOFers (visitors) for an exchange of knowledge on sustainable agriculture.<\/p>\n

WWOOF Italia publishes a list of organic farms (certification is not essential) and sustainable rural realities throughout the country.<\/p>\n

Any farm, community or garden project that uses organic methods and wants to participate in a cultural and educational exchange can join.<\/p>\n

Usually, WWOOFers participate in the various typical activities that take place on a farm or in a rural environment. WWOOFers are welcomed as part of an exchange that is not monetary, but educational and cultural, sharing the lifestyle of their hosts.<\/p>\n

Hosts describe their projects and realities on their profile, including their location and other useful information.<\/p>\n

WWOOFers contact a potential host based on their interests and organise their stay prior to their arrival by making arrangements directly with the host regarding accommodation and activities.<\/p>\n
