WWOOFing Around

5 June 2009 20 views One Comment

If your looking for green travel where you can participate in green organic living, this might be your find of the year. WWOOF – World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms. They have farms throughout the United States, Europe and the rest of world, in exchange for participation on the farm, they provide food and accommodation. For those backpackers and people looking to get away from city life, this could be one opportunity worth checking out. There is even stuff for people who don’t want to be be to far away from city life, take this example.

We are an urban community in Hamilton (NE Baltimore) who maintain several gardens throughout the neighborhood, using organic methods. The produce from the garden plots is divided amongst the community, used for falafel toppings at our Baltimore Farmer’s market stand, and sold to local restaurants. Work is currently underway to create a market and educational garden at a local school. We have many bio-construction and beautification projects going on around the urban neighborhood, including green roofing, straw bale construction, earth oven construction and baking , stone constructions, mosaic tiling, mural painting, We want to provide a place for wwoofers to experience living-of-the-land in an urban environment with a growing, tight-knit community. We will teach our skills and are eager to learn from wwoofers.
