What is WWOOFÂź?

Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms (WWOOF) links visitors with organic farmers, promotes an educational and cultural exchange and builds a global community conscious of ecological farming practices.

WWOOF was founded in 1971 and is one of the world’s first educational and cultural exchange programs. Today, WWOOF is in more than 132 countries around the world (and growing).

WWOOF in Sweden

WWOOF Sweden is the national organization helping to create local WWOOFing opportunities in Sweden and to promote sustainable farming as a lifestyle.

Visitors, or 'WWOOFers', share in daily life with their host and learn about organic agriculture, while spending about half of each day helping out on a farm.

My first wwoofing experience and I got lucky enough to end up at Rosenhill for 6 weeks. My life is changed forever and the teachings I’ve found here will stick with me for the rest of my life. Working hard alongside other passionate people was a gift, connecting with the beautiful nature and trees around the farm, and of course all the meals and laughs and love with everyone there. Thank you to Lars, Anna, Lily, Anders, Sophie, and many more for sharing your knowledge and energy with me. Tack sĂ„ mycket och tills nĂ€sta gĂ„ng 💛

Maja and I stayed a month at Lena and Lasse's farm. We felt very comfortable there. We were allowed to milk the goats every day and take them for walks. We also did the rest of the work in the garden and started dismantling a house. Moreover we were allowed to watch how cheese is made, which was very interesting. Lasse is a very funny man who told us a lot about history. He also goes to Ukraine from time to time to do volunteer work. He lives to help other people, which we think is wonderful. Lena has everything under control and knows what needs to be done. She knows a lot about gardening and is involved in several communities, so we were able to go to the community garden with her. Overall, they both love their animals and we are pretty sure that the animals love them too. It was an incredible time and we learned a lot. And that didn't just apply to farm work, we even learned how to shoot. We can recommend the farm 100%. And most importantly: always wear a helmet!

I had such a lovely time at the farm! The whole area felt so peaceful and relaxing. I spent three amazing days there — Stina, Frederik, and Amanda are all really wonderful people. I helped with the horses, taking them out and cleaning their boxes, and Stina showed me her beautiful garden. She still had some pumpkins left, so we went to Göteborg to sell a few, and then we baked bread and made soup with the some of the rest :)) I loved going on walks with the dog, having meaningful chats with Stina, and learning more about Swedish culture. It was such a special experience! Tack för allt! 💛

Beautiful place! Would recommend everyone to go! The food is amazing, cozy accommodation, beautiful surroundings, and the hosts are so nice. The work is sometimes tough especially in the kitchen but mostly fun and evolving! The work in the garden is very therapeutic. /Girl from Stockholm🇾đŸ‡Ș❀

Katharina und Gregor haben uns offen empfangen und von Anfang an bei Aufgaben mitgenommen! Wir haben ĂŒber den Monat, denen wir bei ihnen verbracht haben, verschiedenste Aufgaben und Skills lernen können. Von Erdbeerpflanzen pflanzen, Ernten, einkochen bis hin zu ZĂ€une bauen, streichen und ganz viel Hunde, Katzen und Schafe streicheln kann man hier alles lernen. WĂ€hrend den Aufgaben gab es immer ein schönes Arbeitsklima.. Gregor und Katharina haben immer gerne viel erzĂ€hlt und auf alle meine unzĂ€hligen Fragen geantwortet! Im Cottage mit den sĂŒĂŸen Katzen lebt es sich super und zum Mittag und Abend haben wir alle 4 lecker zusammen gegessen. Ausserhalb der Farm gab es AktivitĂ€ten (Kalmar/Elchpark), die man gut mit dem Auto erreichen konnte. Es war ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt bei Katharina und Gregor und ich kann es sehr empfehlen!

I had an extremely lovely time staying with Jenny and Sebastian! I stayed for a week and a half. The days were full yet flexible and we ate very well. I was there during autumn ina good year for mushrooms, so we spent a lot of time in the forest picking chantarelles, and then cleaning them back home. They made a lot of efforts to plan tasks and activities around my interests - truly above and beyond. They are both great cooks and were very cognizant of my dietary restrictions (no gluten or added sugar). This is an absolutely WONDERFUL place to wwoof if you: want to learn about viking history and culture; are auDHD (like me); are lgtbq+ (I felt safe here as a lesbian); are good at direct communication; want to improve your swedish (Jenny helped me practice all the time and Sebastian lent me some swedish comics); and/or like to eat meat. It would be less ideal if you prefer to have a set schedule ahead of the time for each day. There is not a clearly defined structure for each day as a wwoofer here and plans can change quickly, so it helps a lot to be willing to go with the flow. This was my first wwoofing experience and I would be very, very glad to come back here again in the future. I felt like a part of the family, and every day here was special. Tack sÄ mycket Jenny och Sebastian!! See you again. :)

I had a wonderfull stay at SkÀrva GÄrd. The stay is very cozy, and the place (10 minutes from the sea) truly is beautiful. I went there as the only volunteer and it was a great place for introspection and fair fun work! I picked tomatoes and did a lot of cleaning in the kitchen where we had wonderfull meals. But the best part was Karin and Henrik's generosity. They are both very friendly in sharing their knowledge and space, and are great at fostering a nice homey atmosphere. I had a very nice time and would definetely recommend anyone in search for a beautiful time in nature + a cozy vibe! Gracias Karin and Henrik, blessings to you both!!

I had a really nice time at Rosenhills! It felt almost like being part of a big family while being there. Lars is very kind, understanding, patient, and easygoing. I also really appreciated the variety of work we could do there. I completely understand why so many people want to come back and why they feel like they’ve found a "second home" :-) Thank you for everything!

I really recommend wwoofing here! I worked here for almost 2 months. Here you live in the middle of the forest. You harvest many different vegetables and package them. I liked harvesting the most. The fields are huge, and you can harvest pumpkins, cabbage, chard, black kale, green kale, carrots, corn, beet root and much more. There is also a greenhouse where you harvest tomatoes. You will also learn how to make sauerkraut and kimchi, and experience the fermentation process. I have never enjoyed eating vegetables and salad as much as I did on this farm, it was so delicious! I felt very connected to nature and learned a lot about farm life here. The farmers here are very funny and friendly. As others have said in their reviews, it was also for me one of the best experiences of my life!

I had a great time staying with Liselotte and Vagn! They were very friendly and helpful and also patient, as I didn’t have any experience with garden work. I helped planting flower beds, harvesting tomatoes and chilis and collecting leaves. It was something different everyday. I learned a lot (hopefully I have my own garden someday). The house and the food were great! I also went on some nice rides out with their daughter. It was my first wwoofing experience and a really positive one.

If I had to describe Gunilla in a few words, I would say that she is a wonderful person who has a good heart and a good cook. If you like solitude, nature, and peace, Gunilla's farm will be the perfect place for you.
