WWOOF: World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms

"WWOOF is a worldwide movement linking volunteers with organic farmers and growers to promote cultural and educational experiences based on trust and non-monetary exchange, thereby helping to build a sustainable, global community.

As a volunteer (or WWOOFer as we call them) you will live alongside your host helping with daily tasks and experiencing life as a farmer."

 "You may have noticed, our wonderful National Forests really like to charge you for primitive camping.  But did you know, usually just a mile or two away from the "developed" campground, you can find a secluded spot in your National Forest that's perfectly legal to camp?  Many times, in these National Forest campgrounds, campsites often have nothing more than a pit toilet and a fire pit with a grill.  The way I've set up my travel rig, I only need a flat spot to park.  The great outdoors (used responsibly of course) serves as my toilet, and my stove serves as my cookery.  Why pay for camping for nothing more than a stinky pit toilet, when just a few miles away, you can legally camp in a secluded spot?"
