The tradition · since 1971

WWOOF (World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms)

In 1971 London secretary Sue Coppard organised the first 'Working Weekends on Organic Farms' in England; it became World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms, linking hosts and volunteers without pay.

How a note would work

Rows are earned by helping in a member's home garden or smallholding and spent on a bed, a meal or lessons with another host; no money moves and no commercial farm takes part. Never bought or cashed out.

Design concept inspired by this tradition, not issued by or for the people who keep it. Not legal tender, not for sale, no cash value, no redemption and no investment rights.
