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
現在、建築、ガーデニング、メンテナンス、ペンキ塗り、家具の設置、内装デザインやリノベーションの経験があるWWOOFerの方を募集しています。特に広い地下スペースの改装を予定しているため、これらのスキルをお持ちの方は大歓迎です。また、自然との調和とバランスを大切にする空間づくりも進めています。

冬のスケジュール（9月〜5月）
毎朝7:30に食事スペースに集まり、一緒に朝食を作って楽しみます。その後片付けをして、9:00頃からその日の活動を始め、12:00頃まで作業します。昼食もみんなで準備・食事をします。午後の作業は13:00〜16:00頃まで行い、夕食の準備は18:00頃から始めます。すべての食事は共同作業で、料理や片付けも分担しながら進めます。この時間は、お互いに交流し、リラックスし、考えを共有する大切なひとときです。

夏のスケジュール（6月〜8月）
夏は朝が涼しいうちに作業できるよう、スケジュールを早めに設定しています。朝6:00に軽めの朝食を一緒に取り、6:30から作業を始め、9:30頃に終了します。少し休憩した後、12:00に再集合して昼食を準備・共有します。午後の作業は16:00〜19:00頃で、その後夕食の準備とリラックスした団らんの時間になります。

自由時間について
自由時間には、休んだり自然を満喫したり、周辺の散策をしたりすることができます。天気が良い日には、美瑛の周辺を自転車で巡ったり、展望台、有名な青い池、季節の花畑などを訪れることもできます。みんなの気分が合えば、一緒に小さな遠足を計画することもできます。

大切なこと
お互いを思いやり、自発的に行動することを最も大切にしています。感謝の気持ちを持ち、相手を理解しようとする姿勢、文化的な違いを尊重することが求められます。新しいライフスタイルに興味があり、よく働き、探求心のある方にはぴったりの場所です。しかし、やる気がなく、貢献する意思が見られない場合や怠惰な態度が続く場合は、こちらからお引き取りをお願いすることがあります。ポジティブな姿勢とお互いの協力が、この場所を心地よく有意義な経験にするために必要です。

季節ごとの主な作業

冬： 家やコテージの室内清掃、薪の運搬・整理、工具の片付け、その他の改善作業。比較的静かな季節なので、2〜3名までの受け入れとなります。

春： 雑草取り、花畑や野菜畑の管理・植え替え、ログハウスや小屋のペンキ塗りなど。サウナ、ピザ窯、温泉など新しい施設の建築も計画中です。建築や機械作業の経験がある方は特に歓迎します。

夏： 一番忙しい季節です。ゲスト対応、収穫、雑草取り、ペンキ塗り、客室の清掃などをお手伝いいただきます。

秋： 10月中旬〜11月中旬にかけて冬支度を行います。果物や野菜の収穫、薪の伐採・運搬、花の手入れなどが中心です。
I am currently looking for WWOOFers with experience in building, gardening, maintenance, painting, furnishing, or interior design/renovation. If you have skills in any of these areas, you are very welcome, as I am planning to renovate a large basement space. We are also working to create a space that values harmony and balance with nature.

WINTER SEASON SCHEDULE (September to May)
We gather in the eating area each morning at 7:30 a.m. to prepare and enjoy breakfast together. Afterward, we clean up and begin the day’s activities around 9:00 a.m., continuing until around 12:00 p.m. Lunch is prepared and enjoyed together, following a similar process. In the afternoon, we resume work from 1:00 p.m. to about 4:00 p.m. Dinner prep starts around 6:00 p.m., and mealtime is a shared, communal experience with everyone helping out. These shared moments are valuable opportunities to connect, reflect, and relax.

SUMMER SEASON SCHEDULE (June to August)
During summer, we follow an earlier routine to enjoy the cool morning hours. We gather at 6:00 a.m. for a light breakfast and begin our activities at 6:30 a.m., usually finishing by 9:30 a.m. After a rest period, we meet again at 12:00 p.m. to prepare and enjoy lunch. The evening session goes from 4:00 p.m. to around 7:00 p.m., followed by dinner preparations and a relaxed shared meal.

Free Time
During your free time—whether in winter or summer—you are welcome to rest, enjoy the surrounding nature, or explore the area. On beautiful days, we can go cycling around Biei or visit local attractions such as panoramic view towers, the famous Blue Pond, and seasonal flower parks. If everyone feels up for it, we can organize small group outings to explore together.

IMPORTANT
I place great importance on mutual care, kindness, and proactive contribution. We must show gratitude toward one another, take genuine interest in understanding each other, and respect the cultural differences that may arise. If you're someone who enjoys hard work, is curious about new lifestyles, and loves exploration, this will be the perfect environment for you. However, if someone consistently shows a lack of motivation or refuses to contribute, I will ask them to leave. A positive mindset and shared effort are essential for creating a meaningful, respectful experience for everyone involved.

Seasonal Tasks
Winter: Indoor cleaning, moving firewood, organizing tools, and small renovation projects. Winter is a calm season, and we can host only 2–3 people at a time.

Spring: Weeding, caring for flower fields and vegetable gardens, and replanting. Several buildings and log cabins need repainting. We are also planning to build new features like a sauna, pizza oven, and onsen. Experience with construction or machinery is highly appreciated.

Summer: Our busiest season. WWOOFers will help with guest interaction, harvesting, weeding, painting, and room cleaning.

Autumn: From mid-October to mid-November, we prepare for winter by harvesting produce, chopping and transporting firewood, and caring for the flowers.
