The problem

Farm work exists.
Finding it is the hard part.

Every backpacker goes through the same nightmare. We built Farm88 to end it.

Outdated listings everywhere

Most farm directories haven't been touched since 2019. You call the number - it's disconnected.

No way to know who's hiring right now

You email 20 farms. Silence. None of them needed workers this week - and there's no way to tell.

Tracking your 88 days is a mess

Spreadsheets, notes apps, voice messages to yourself. Is it 62 days? Or 64?

Scattered. Impossible to navigate.

Facebook groups, random websites, hostel noticeboards. There's no single source of truth.

Farm88 fixes all of this. In one app.

We pull data from official government sources, refresh it every Monday, and show you which farms are hiring right now - on a map, filtered by crop and region, with the contact details we have.

The formula

Hours worked
→ visa days.

Australia's 88-day rule converts your working hours into visa days. Farm88 does the maths automatically.

35.25h+ → 7 days
28.25h+ → 5 days
21.25h+ → 4 days
14.25h+ → 3 days
7.25h+ → 2 days
4h+ → 1 day

Free tool

Count your own days.

Punch in your weekly hours and see exactly how many visa days they add up to - the same maths the app does for you automatically.

Reviews

From backpackers
who've been there.

"Found a mango farm in Darwin in under 10 minutes. Called them directly. Started the next day. WikiFarms hadn't been updated since 2019."

"The tracker is so much better than a spreadsheet. It counts the hours automatically and I could show the PDF to my migration agent."

MF
Mateo F.
Chilean · New South Wales

"I turned on the Hiring Now filter and had 3 farms I could call today. That badge alone saved me a week of emailing into the void."

"Completé mis 88 días en 10 semanas. Sin Farm88 me habría tardado el doble. Los reviews de la comunidad te dicen quién realmente paga bien."

"The map showed a blueberry farm 12 km from my hostel. Hired me on the spot. I never had to pay an agency or use a job board."

"Other apps show farms that closed three years ago. Farm88 updates every week. If it says Hiring Now, they are actually hiring."

Farm88 is free to use - the map, 1,400+ farm listings, the Hiring Now badge, Near Me filter and 88-day tracker are all free, forever. Farm88 Pro is a one-time AUD 10.99 (no subscription, ever) that unlocks the contact details we have for each farm, community reviews, PDF export, and priority hiring alerts.
WikiFarms hasn't been updated since 2019. Farm88 updates its data every Monday from official government sources, shows you which farms are actively hiring right now with the Hiring Now badge, has a built-in 88-day tracker, and lets you filter by crop type and season. It's a completely different product, built for how backpackers actually find work today.
Farms with the green Hiring Now badge have an active job listing on the official Workforce Australia government platform - updated every Monday. It means they had an open position in the last 7 days. That said, always call ahead before travelling - hiring status can change daily.
The map and farm listings need an internet connection to load. Once a farm is open on your screen the details stay visible. The 88-day tracker works offline - you can log your hours and days even without signal, which is common in rural Australia. Your data syncs automatically when you're back online.
You can still log your days in the tracker manually - just type the farm name. The tracker works for any farm, not only those in our database. For the map listings, you can tap Report on any farm to suggest corrections, or email us to add a farm that's missing.
You need a signed Form 1263 from your employer and your payslips. Farm88 generates a detailed PDF log of all your entries - farm name, dates, hours per day and days counted - which you can export and attach to your visa application as supporting evidence. Always keep your original payslips too.
Yes. You can split your 88 days across as many farms as you need, in different states, and they don't have to be consecutive. The Farm88 tracker handles multiple entries and adds them all up automatically. Many backpackers do 2-3 farms across different harvest seasons.
Farm88 is launching on both iOS (App Store) and Android (Google Play). Tap the download buttons below to get it - and if it's not live in your store just yet, it will be any day now.
