What is WWOOF®?

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.

Per and Regine are very friendly, you can talk about every topic with them. They try the best that you have a good stay there. The work was quite fun, chopping wood, cleaning the barn and some gardening work. The scenery is amazing and you can explore the surounding nature very good. If you want to go to a nearby city, i would recommend to take the bus from Tystberga Trafikplats. I would definetely recommend this place!

This was my first experiencing WWOOFing internationally, and I had the most incredible time. Anthony and Christian are so sweet, and I always felt safe and well cared for. The work was a mix of gardening, cleaning, and caring for the animals. I stayed during the month of April so all the mamma sheep were giving birth, and there were lots of babies to care for (and of course cuddle). This was the perfect place to ride a bike, run, hike, go to the cafe, or just relax and read a book during your time off. And in April there really weren't many people there so it was super quiet! If you're looking to spend time connecting with nature, want to learn how to take care of animals, and experience what it's like to work on a Swedish farm I cannot recommend this stay enough! I'm excited to come again in the future:)

I had a valuable and hands-on experience during my stay. The area itself is very scenic and has a strong sense of history, which made the overall experience even more enjoyable. Gunilla is a very kind and welcoming woman, which made the overall atmosphere comfortable and positive.

I couldn't have wished for a better first WWOOFing experience. Lars is a very kind person who truly wants to introduce us to Swedish culture. I learned a lot from Anna, the gardener, and I’m very grateful for the time I spent in the greenhouse seeding, planting, and even harvesting. There’s no real routine, as each day is different, which keeps things engaging and exciting. The kitchen staff were great, helping them with the dishes (which can be stressful when there are many customers). They also prepared delicious lunches and amazing cakes :)

I stayed at Kajsa's and Emil's farm at the end of April and really enjoyed it so much! :-) Kajsa and Emil are simply wonderful people: very warmhearted and welcoming, but also humourous and always up for either some deep talks or a cozy film/series evening. Every morning I would give fresh hay and water to the sheep and afterwards we mostly continued with preparing the beds for the vegetable garden or repotting young plants in the greenhouse. Still, there was a big variety in tasks (e.g. going into mass production of gnocchi, cutting wall paper, cleaning the chicken house or building a fence), which I appreciated a lot! Also, I never felt urged to do something I wouldn't like and could instead choose something else. In my free time (usually starting in the early afternoon) I explored the beautiful surroundings on walks, small hikes or on the bikes Kajsa and Emil would offer to us wwoofers. We had lunch and dinner all together (big thanks to Emil for his great cooking skills!) and often also spent the evening together. They were always welcoming to socialise, but if you needed time for yourself, that was also possible. As a wwoofer, you have the whole ground floor for yourself, so there is space to just be alone, if you need that. This was my first wwoofing-experience and I really feel it could not have been better! Tack så väldigt mycket, Emil och Kajsa, ni är fantastiska och jag hoppas att kunna komma tillbaka någon dag! :)

Es gibt Situationen auf einem Hof in der spontan helfende Hände unterstützen können. Sei es zum Beispiel beim Schafe füttern, Zaun reparieren oder einfach dabei das Auto aus der Werkstatt abzuholen. Ganz herzlichen Dank für die sehr freundliche Aufnahme in dein Haus und den Einblick in das Hofleben.

Had a great time at the vitsjö vineyaard and Furuleden Inn. Mike and Amanda are lovely people and were very welcoming, and cooked delicius dinner for me and Nao (Another Wwoofer). I found their lifestory very inspirering. They live in their own House while the wwoofers live in the Inn, but we ate together most nights and drank Wine and it was a good time. The vineyard is really cool, Mike likes to experiment and a lot, and try new things like playing Music for the plants, growing vegetables in between the vines and planting homegrown mushroom mycelium, and i felt like i learned a lot. There was also quite a bit of tough physical garden work to do, but Mike was also very open to let me do the work i was interested in. I found vinepruning suprisingly interesting, and would have loved to stay a little longer and learn more about it (i only stayed a week). Theres is a beautiful lake in vittsjo, witch is mostly surounded by a forest witch in some parts is very mossy and magical. I also found a really cute little Beach where i went Bathing on sunny days (it was cooold, but i like that). I visited in mid april, and would love to come back later in spring or in summer or autumn and see the place explode with veggies, vines, flowets and colors. I would definetly recomend you visit here 🌻🫶

I just spent two months at Ändebols gård. It was my fifth WWOOFing experience and without a doubt one of my favorites. Katarina and Magnus are wonderful people who do everything to make you feel at home and never take your help for granted. The work is very varied: planting, caring for the animals, and other outdoor tasks. Thank you to Katarina and Magnus for welcoming me to this beautiful paradise!

I spent two incredible weeks with Angela and Uttam. The work on the farm is varied (sowing seeds, repotting, painting, etc) and I got to see the work with the Oxen, which is very impressive. I will always be very grateful for the wonderful times we spent together. Thank you for your kindness, empathy, and good humor. I had such a great time laughing during those two weeks, putting the world to rights with you. Plus, Uttam and Angela are fantastic cook! Thank you again, I truly loved my experience and until next time!

Varmt tack Liselotte och Vagn för en fin första wwoof- upplevelse! Jag och min käresta fick tålmodig och lärorik handledning i det som var nytt för oss och bra feedback på våra uppgifter. Skönt för kroppen med omväxlande arbeten i odlingen, glashuset, storköket och en del röjning av träd. Fantastiskt god, vällagad, vegetarisk mat med trevliga, givande samtal under luncherna. Vi kan verkligen rekommendera volontärer att besöka dessa generösa och vänliga människor.

I had a wonderful time at the farm in march. If you wanna learn something about sheep this is definitely the place to go. Katharina and Gregor always took the time to explain everything in detail if there were any questions. Furthermore there was always good food. I really loved spending my time there.
