Vivre et apprendre dans des fermes bio et paysannes au Royaume-Uni

C'est quoi WWOOF®?

Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms (WWOOF) met en relation des bénévoles avec des fermes bio et paysannes, encourage les échanges culturels et éducatifs, et construit une communauté mondiale sensible aux pratiques agricoles durables.

WWOOF, fondé en 1971, est l’un des premiers programmes d’échange éducatif et culturel au monde. Aujourd'hui, WWOOF est présent dans plus de 132 pays à travers le monde (et ce chiffre ne cesse de croître).

WWOOF au Royaume-Uni

WWOOF UK est l'organisation nationale qui facilite la création d'opportunités locales de WWOOFing au Royaume-Uni et la promotion de l'agriculture bio et paysanne.

Les bénévoles, ou « WWOOFeurs », partagent la vie quotidienne de leur hôte et s'initient à l'agriculture bio et paysanne en passant environ la moitié de chaque journée à aider à la ferme.

Jessica and the rest of the crew at Monkton Wyld were awesome! I had a great time and I'm sure that my two friends also had a great time. The atmosphere was very welcoming and it was a beautiful place to spend my time. The accommodations were up to par and we had no complaints. Food was awesome, and you could almost forget that it was veg only! Great time all around.

I had a really good time during my stay! The place is peaceful, the people are lovely, and it was such a pleasure to be surrounded by nature and animals. The Somerset region is beautiful! Thank you to the Wookey farm family for your warm welcome and hospitality. I 100% recommend this place! Anastasia

I had a wonderful time with Angus and Leah! They are very nice and respectful people and chatting with them was always interesting. I stayed in a cosy room and shared their nice meals everyday. I mostly helped Angus making hay but also did different tasks with the cows, the crops etc... They were always happy to show and teach me their skills with patience. I also learned a lot about their culture and lifestyle. They love what they do and show a heartwarming respect to their environment. I would definitely recommend going there!

I couldn't have asked for better hosts for my first WWOOFing experience than Mandy and Greg (and Tiny)! In addition to being kind, thoughtful, and generous, they are also incredibly inspiring people with many creative talents. They went above and beyond to help me learn so much about their farm and the rural Kent area. I can't thank them enough for making me feel so comfortable and at home for the whole two weeks that I stayed with them.

Woofing in Bobsfield was an amazing opportunity. Everyone I met was so welcoming and easy to talk to, always making sure I had everything I needed. Working there helped me gain so much knowledge on cultivating the land, Bob never missed an opportunity to share some of his wisdom. The campsite is splendid and puts you in a chilled mood, I also had a ton of fun exploring all the nature and monuments around. This community has so much to offer to anyone who wants to help, you should definetely come experience that yourself !

My stay at Emilys and Phils Farm was short, but sweet! I was the only wwoofer there, stayed for a week and spent most of my time alone or with Emily (Phil was visiting a friend, but came back early, so we had a few days together). There was a lot of gardening and weeding to do, which was quite meditative for me :) I had my own little flat which was quite nice! For meals I could go to the kitchen in the mainhouse and feel at home. Emily was always caring for me and made sure I never was hungry ;) As I mentioned I wanted to see the beach Emily took me and her dogs (she‘s a dogsitter at the moment) to a beautiful walk, which I really appreciated! When Phil came back from his trip he prepared a bicycle for me so I could explore the area a bit. And when I drove to the sea (quite a range!) he picked me up, which was so nice of him! One important learning for me was that the plans we made (for the next day) were almost changing overnight. A bit more of a routine and plan would have been nice for me, but I also accepted the challenge ;) I really had a lovely experience, a bit of an adventure and wish Emily and Phil all the best :)

Chris est un hôte absolument formidable, je le recommande sans hésitation ! Je suis restée chez lui moins d'une semaine mais cela a suffit à faire toutes les activités proposées dans la description (voire d'autres encore : Ceilidh, vélo, nage, marche, repas avec des amis ou de la famille, etc). Dormir dans la tente s'avère confortable (on est légèrement bercé par le bruit de la rivière en fond et la maison reste accessible tout le temps en cas de besoin) . Le jardin est très agréable, les tâches variables et établies en fonction des besoins et des envies. Je remercie encore Chris (et Sarah, colocataire provisoire pendant mon séjour) pour leur patience avec mon anglais, les anecdotes internationales, les bons plats et leur générosité en général.

I had an amazing time WWOOFing at Pitt Farm! Kate and Harry are wonderful hosts—kind, welcoming, and generous. I can highly recommend this place. The work was fair and mostly involved gardening and weeding. Thank you for everything!

"I had a fantastic time with Seb and Molly! They are incredibly welcoming and friendly, and they truly make you feel like part of the family. The work was varied and Seb always gave me options on what we could do, which kept things engaging and gave me a real taste of farm life. The farm is stunning, and I cannot wait to see how it evolves with time. A special shoutout to their adorable dog, who made breaks an absolute joy. I left feeling like I’d gained real skills and made genuine friends. Thank you both!"

Hello Wwoofer, If you are thinking about stopping by Cathrine, I can warmly recommend it to you. This was my first wwoofing experience and in just 2 weeks the decision to come here turned out to be right! There are many small or large garden projects and everyone will find something for themselves with the help of Cathrine where he has fun and can show his ability - whereby you can say that you don't need much experience for most things and you get the hang of it when doing it. ;) Cathrine's family is also very open and welcome and you quickly find a topic of conversation. So you can say that it is definitely worth it as a first Wwoofing experience or even as a further experience. There is a beautiful large garden around the house and a beautiful nature park within walking distance. That's exactly how I can recommend a weekend trip to Belfast because the city certainly has something for everyone! ;)
