Activities and attraction of this project:
This is a part of “Tanzawa-ooyama-sizen-saisei-katsudou-project (revitalization project of nature in Tanzawa-ooyama)”.
This project aims to revitalize local community through interacting between people in cities and villages. We cooperated this project with NPO in Hadano-shi and Isehara-shi as doing revitalization of nature in Tanzawa-ooyama.
In this time, we will cooperate with NPO Institute for Forest of ISEHARA.
We assist to plant rice at rice paddy fields in where meltwater is poured this season. We also work for the forest which is the source of water!
We can learn a lot from NPO members how and what to do for nature. They are all veterans who have “OMOI (experience)” and “WAZA (skill)”. Let’s feel and enjoy working!
We plan to
■rice planting.
■maintenance of bamboo trees.
■maintenance of country hill.
*Those are only plan. They will be changed by conditions.
There is one of the wealthy nature places near Tokyo. You can get there in 1 and 1/4 hour form SHINJYUKU area. Let’s spend great 2 days through working, drinking, and laughing with local senior people who know how to get along with nature very well in spring days. We are looking forward to seeing YOU!!
