Cairns Wwoof

Wwoof in Cairns.

Australia has a large, well-established and unique agricultural structure, and is a prime importer and exporter. Farming in Australia includes livestock, fruit and vegetables, wheat, and other crops. In Cairns, the agricultural industry is predominantly made up of sugar cane farms.

If you’ve ever wanted to experience working on a farm or get involved with a voluntary program that benefits the environment, Wwoof Australia, (Willing workers on organic farms), may be just what you were looking for. Wwoof is a program that connects young, enthusiastic volunteers with organic farms looking for an extra hand, and a chance to share some of their knowledge.

If you choose to get involved in the Wwoof program, you’ll be set up with a private organic farmer in the Cairns region, who’ll provide accommodation, meals, and a wealth of knowledge about their specialized business.

AA Education Network can help you find the perfect host family in Cairns, giving you the opportunity to experience an Australia lifestyle, first hand! As a volunteer, you’ll be able to choose between commercial farms, or more community-based placements. The placements are set up in a casual arrangement, this allows a sense of freedom; though usually 4 to 6 working per day is seen as a fair trade.
