Our 7 Core Values


◆We treasure life and relationships between people first and foremost.
◆We will protect the natural eco-system, and aim to circulate resources without using pesticides and chemical fertilizers.
◆We will enjoy nature and appreciate its seasonal food/products, and continue to transmit this message outwards.
◆We aim to grow our staff into "farmers" who enjoy the art of farming, and take on the challenge of learning and spreading those traditional skills.
◆We aim to make a welcoming farm where people from different countries can share meaningful time together.
◆We will strive to become a farm that lives out the message that "no matter how much we may stumble and fall, we CAN get back up again".
◆We promise to send out our heart along with our products to the world.
