Message To WWOOFers In Japanese
私たちは夫婦で京都の都会から田舎へ移住しました。アレルギーがあり本当に安心できる食べ物を作るために来ました。中山間地での無農薬無肥料の露地栽培のみですので模索しながら育てています。少量多品目の野菜のみ栽培しており、都会にある実家を改装した小さな八百屋さんでの直接販売と配達のみで販売しています。ご興味持たれた方ぜひ来てください。
Message To WWOOFers In English
My husband and I moved from the city of Kyoto to the countryside. I came here to make food that I can really feel good about with allergies. Since it is only cultivated outdoors without pesticides or fertilizers in mountainous areas, we are growing while searching. We only grow small-lot, multi-item vegetables, and sell only through direct sales and delivery at a small greengrocer in a renovated family home in the city.
