🏆 Finalist #1 and Winner by WWOOFer Benoit Blanchard!
“This summer my two daughters and I had our first WWOOFing experience ever. We couldn’t have asked for a better one. What an amazing experience we had with our host Laurie and Nita at KingsLand Farmlette on the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia. On this photo, Nita is teaching the kids how to harvest squash even if they dont share a common language (we are from Québec). Our two hosts showed immense patience and generosity in including my two daughters as much as possible and passing on to them life on the farm. Thank you Laurie and Nita.”
Congratulations to our participants and winner!
