Tushar Mathur WWOOF or World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farming has opened up a pool of opportunities for people like globe trotters, environmentalists and others who are looking for immigration too. Thousands of organic farms have opened their doors to the volunteers’ world wide. They are free to come over stay and volunteer in the day to day work of the farm and in return they get free food and shelter with the farm owners.
Eco tourism is certainly a benefit that is there in such an opportunity apart from that there are other things like you get to meet people of a different country and see the culture there so on and so forth. For people like globe trotters it’s very important that they should have an arrangement for food and shelter in the country that they visit. Thus this is a good option for them as well. For people looking for immigration to the United States have to arrange for their own visa etc the WWOOF organization is not about paid working and thus they are not going to help you in any thing like a work permit or any thing. But through their net work you can certainly arrange for a host who would be providing you food and shelter in the United States once you have reached there.
It’s a strict no for you to show up in the farm without having made prior arrangements with the farm owner. For all the immigration related questions through the WWOOF program the best people to get in touch with are first the United States Embassy, or your immigration Lawyer. These are the people who would be able to answer all your questions related to migration through the WWOOF program. For immigrants this opportunity may be looked at just as an initial shelter post which new arrangements have to be made. But the benefits that come along with are that you do get some amount of experience in the organic farming and how to create a market for the products which are raised from the organic farms. And other related things.
