WWOOF Guidelines

Welcome to the Coast to Coast WWOOF Canada organization. We are delighted that you would like to be part of the WWOOF Canada host/volunteer network. There are over 3,000 volunteers per year who come from within Canada and from 40 other countries who look forward to an experience on a Canadian farm, homestead, or urban property. And there are now over 900 WWOOF Hosts.

Guidelines have been created from Host and WWOOFer (volunteer) experiences with the intent to help you get the best out of your WWOOF adventure. Please click on the pictures to review the basic WWOOF guidelines.

You will soon meet a broad spectrum of people. They, just as you and I, carry a broad spectrum of qualities. Being a good host or WWOOFer is communicated magically throughout the whole WWOOFing scene. Acknowledge that it is a huge step for WWOOFers (volunteers) to enter a host's home, as it is for Hosts to share their home with WWOOFers.

WWOOFing has become a cultural exchange, not just a straight helping exchange. Enjoy your experience as a WWOOF host or volunteer! If you have any questions or difficulties please contact us and we would be pleased to assist you.

Thank you for your interest and support of WWOOF ... and living, learning, and sharing organic lifestyles. Thousands around the world are and have benefited greatly in more ways than one from WWOOFing.

We wish you all many great adventures as WWOOF Hosts and WWOOFers - WWOOFing in Canada!
