WWOOFERS learn how to hear horses in Australia
Willing Workers On Organic Farms (WWOOFERS) come to our farm at Tanjil South in Australia. WWOOF is a world wide organization that promotes a cultural exchange between the host and the guest, who work 4 hours per day doing work on an organic or chemical free farm, in return for their board and keep (their food and a comfortable bed).
While they are with us, the wwoofers are treated as part of the family and we make an effort to include them in our social lives at the time.
Most wwoofers are looking for the horse experience, so I include a small amount of instruction with the horses each day that I am here and outside of working hours, they get to spend as much time as they like with the herd, exploring how they “hear” horses.
