Dear WWOOFers and hosts,

The European Union has closed the borders due to the Covid-19 “coronavirus” situation. This means that travelers from outside the EU will be denied access into the Netherlands!

A number of borders within the EU have also been closed. We don't know if the Netherlands will close its borders to travelers from within the EU in the near future, and therefore advise everyone to carefully (re)consider their travel plans!

If you were planning to come to the Netherlands but have canceled your plans, we are willing to extend your membership for one year. Please contact us if this is the case, but since we have to do this manually, please allow us some time.

If you currently are WWOOFing in the Netherlands, it’s best to discuss with the host you’re staying with what the best thing to do is; perhaps shorten your stay to go back home, or extend your stay if it’s difficult to travel on.

But hosts could also decide not to host WWOOFers (anymore) for the next weeks or months. Please respect their decision. We understand this can cause inconveniences to say the least, but it’s a difficult situation for everyone, and we’re sure that everybody is doing their best to deal with it.
