    Is it possibile for a 54 year old with various skillsets in agriculture and driving experience of agriculture and commercial vehicles to get seasonal work on farms in Australia-even for 6 months ie in our winter.
    I know the working holiday Visa has a limit of 35 years. Am i 20 years too late.!

    I don’t think there’s an age limit on WWoofing which is voluntary so strictly non paid, although you might get meals and accommodation with some places.
