Back ground:
The nearest station of “Okunotani” (the working site) is Takitanifudo station, which is 40minutes by train from Tennoji station. You can enjoy the walk among fields and country hill scene from the station to the site.
“The society of preserving the nature of Tondabayashi” have started their action of preservation of valuable nature in semi-natural area since 1996.
“Okunotani” is one of eco-villages where use new technology regardless of no electric line. The energy for accommodation is self-supplied by solar panel and storage battery.
Okunotani is in spring sunshine filtering through the leaves of tree now. It is the season of the fresh green leaves of the tree and insects appeared out. There are a touch of living things in the air in May.
Work:
We plan to mow paths between rice paddy fields and watercourse. Remove the weeds in there means to keep paths between rice paddy fields and to prevent original vegetation. We need volunteer power to mow specially in May. We wanted for YOUR volunteer power.
We also plan to have a party under starry sky. Let’s eat and drink around “IRORI (Japanese traditional fire space)” to enjoy unusual weekend or to meet “ICHIGOICHIE (One meeting, One opportunity-the concept in the Way of Tea of regarding every encounter as a unique opportunity of a lifetime, or in general, of treasuring each passing moment in order to live meaningfully)” or to interact each other.
