We mainly eat beans and vegetable as an every day diet,but in a festival or when we are invited by our friends or neighbors,there are often meat as a treat.Therefore,if you are flexible for food,it helps us a lot.

夫婦で移り住み、就農しました。有機・無農薬のお茶栽培を軸に、できる限り持続可能な暮らしを心がけています。小さい子供がいるので、子供が好きで、明るいウーファーに来てほしいです。また、将来、就農を考えている人は相談にのります。
We moved here in 2009,deciding on living in countryside.We produce organic Japanese green tea on the side of the mountain.We have wonderful view of mountains around.In May and June, we often have milky fog, as if we lived above clouds.Surrounding is very quiet and songs of birds are very beautiful.

We need your help...

We especially get busy in harvest season of tea in May.
