We have an organic attitude of sorts, but we do not go out of our way to be organic or alternative, rather, we do what suits us at the time
自然環境や体のことを考え、化学物質等を使用している製品は、出来るだけ使用しないように心がけています。良い品でていねいに手作りされた食物や製品を購入、使用して生産者の人たちを応援しています。電気製品については、冷蔵庫、洗濯機、キッチン家電、必要最低限の物は使用しています。シンプルに物を大切にする生活を心がけています。洗濯機は使用出来ますが洗剤等は不使用でお願いしています。飲料水を含めた生活用水は山からの湧水を利用しています。(食品衛生法飲料水質検査済)
We are mindful of the natural environment and our bodies, and try to avoid using products that contain chemicals as much as possible. We support producers by purchasing and using high-quality, carefully handmade food and products. As for electrical appliances, we use only the bare necessities: refrigerators, washing machines, kitchen appliances. We try to live a simple life, valuing our possessions. You can use the washing machine, but we ask that you do not use detergents. We use spring water from the mountains for all our daily needs, including drinking water. (Drinking water quality tested in accordance with the Food Sanitation Act)

自然豊かな場所で、自分の原点に帰りたくて今の場所に移住しました。空き家状態が長く農地や周辺の土地は荒地でした。家の掃除や片付けから始まり田畑の開墾の最中です。森と果樹園とガーデンを一体化させた空間作りを目指しています
自然の樹木や野草、ハーブ、果樹等を植え小道を作ったりしながら少しずつ開墾を進めています。私の理想とする農地です。まだまだ途中で今からですがウーファさんの助けが必要です。興味もある方一緒に理想の農空間を作りませんか？
開墾と言っても重労働ではありません。草を取ったり耕したりしながら害獣避柵を設置、樹木を適当な場所に植えて行きます。

WE ARE ACCEPTING WWOOFers
