Wwoofers

wwoofer in the vines

"Where would we be without wwoofers", we often ask ourselves. If you haven't seen our back label, then you're probably wondering just what "wwoofers" are!

In return for accommodation, meals and of course appropriate amounts of oranje tractor wine, travellers from all over the world stay with us and provide valuable help in the vineyard and garden.

It's a fabulous scheme, as we get a "cultural exchange" as well as additional labour, and our visitors get to experience "Ozzie" culture and farm life, as well as free lodging.

Our guest book reads like a UN conference... Dutch, Japanese, Norwegian, German, English, American, Canadian, Swiss, Austrian and even Slovenian wwoofers have all graced our table over the past 8 years. We can now say "bon appetite" in 9 languages, and have even developed our very own Ozzie version... "Bonza Tucker, Mate!"

Willing Workers On Organic Farms (WWOOF)is the organisation from which the acronym comes. For a small fee each year, our enterprise is listed in a guide that backpackers and others purchase.
