13 Jan 2015 :
The hugely entertaining TG4 Travel series WWOOFáil returns to Irish screens tonight with the first episode of the new series at 10.15pm. The show follows TG4 weather girl Máiréad Ní Chuaig and Hollwood based actor Donegal native Gavin Ó Fearraigh on an American road trip across California as they try their hand at the world of organic farming.

Similar to the first series which explored farms in Europe, WWOOFáil California sees the hosts travelling across the vast landscape of the American state as they exchange their labour for bed and board. Over the six episodes Máiréad and Gavin will travel from the sunny surfing beaches of southern California to northern California’s cowboy country, visiting an array of unique farms during their road trip, making new friends and learning new farming skills.

Along their journey they will fish for salmon with the local Yurok Tribe in Klamath, whale watch in Morro Bay, help in the production of organic wine in Sonoma County and roller skate at San Francisco’s famous Church of Eight Wheels among numerous activities during their adventure.

WWOOF stands for ‘World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms’. The movement began in the 1970s and today there are approximately 11,000 affiliated hosts in almost 100 countries and participants choose their routes according to the seasonal climate and farming cycle.

The series is produced by Stirling Television and was funded by the Irish Language Broadcast Fund (ILBF) and TG4.
