Workaways near caving regions

Peregrina

Backpackers travelling on the cheap sometimes use schemes like Workaway, helpx, and WWOOF which list hosts around the world who will put you up and feed you, for a few days to a few months, in return for 20 - 25 hours of work a week.

These are usually smallholdings, B&Bs or families who could do with some light manual labour and general help. The volunteer usually gets fresh local food, a cultural experience and a couple of days free per week to see the local area.

I was wondering if anyone has considered doing this or something similar near a caving region abroad? It could be a good way to get some sport caving done while spending hardly any money. E.g. being based on a farm in Slovenia, or a g?te in the Vercors.

Anyone done anything like this in practice?
