Have you heard of Wwoofing? (Willing Workers on Organic Farms.)
There is an official Wwoofing website (google it) to give you the basic idea.
In exchange for approx 4 hours work a day you will get fed,watered and a bed.
It is worldwide.
I would suggest a site caled HelpX, (google it!) where I am registered.It is slightly different to the Wwoofing website in that you pay just one fee of £15 for 2 years membership.
You can have a look as a free user though,but to be able to contact hosts and have access to their phone numbers and E mail addresses you do need to pay.
It is well worth it. You can look in just about any part of the world on HelpX...
Have a look.
I have helped in France,Spain and Portugal and had a ball and learned a lot.

I was a volunteer on a kibbutz and it was brilliant. The company I used to get a placement, was called Project 67, although I am not sure if it still exists. You get fed, housed and we were even clothed!!

You can volunteer with the National Trust, too, and not just in the UK. Might be worth looking into if you're a member.
