WWOOF Japan does not give WWOOFer or Host information to third parties.

It is in the best interests of WWOOFers and Hosts that WWOOFing in Japan is as safe an experience as possible, and to facilitate WWOOFers finding Hosts that are most suited to them, their goals and aspirations. It is to that end that we ask the following questions.

Your WWOOF Japan membership is for one year, beginning from the start date Plan that you specify. For example, if you are planning to begin travelling and WWOOFing in, say 1 month from now, and you will be going with 1 child, then simply select from the options that Plan that says: "One Adult and one child to begin WWOOFing in one month from now".

You will be given membership information as soon as we have received your payment and application form. If you pay via credit card or PayPal as part of our application form process, your membership will be automatically activated immediately. You may then without delay begin to contact Hosts and make plans, even if that is before your membership commences. But you must NOT actually go WWOOFing until the date your membership commences.

You can renew your membership after each one year period has expired any number of times for one year each time. Each time you renew your membership you must pay the annual membership fee.
