We will be WWOOFing at communities and farms in the UK from May to December 2011. WWOOFing stands for 'willing workers on organic farms'. So we will work about 6 hours a day, five days a week and get a bed and food from the host, with no money changing hands. More information can be found here. The farms and communities we are visiting are listed below and their location can be found on the map at the bottom. More will be added as we go.
