北海道の道北に位置する和寒町にて、２０２３年に新規就農しました。
多い時で羊が１５０頭ほど、山羊が２０頭ほどの小さな牧場です。
地域で手に入るものを中心に、北海道産飼料のみを与えております。
遺伝子組み換えのものや、輸入穀物などは使用しておりません。
人と地域とのつながりの中で、循環した経営を目指してます。
２〜４月は出産、４〜５月は毛刈りのシーズンになります。
家庭菜園で３０〜４０品目くらいとアスパラも少しだけ（0.５反くらい）育ててます。
食品添加物や化学調味料は使いません。基本的に調味料などは納得のいく製造方法のものだけを使っております。
食べることと動物が好きな、面白い人に来てもらえたら嬉しいです。
まだまだ発展途中の牧場なので、ウーファーの皆様と一緒に作って行けたら嬉しいです。
鶏と豚も飼いたいです。
ミキプルースッ！
I started farming in 2023 in Wasamu Town, located in northern Hokkaido.
It is a small ranch with around 150 sheep and 20 goats at its peak.
We only feed our animals feed produced in Hokkaido, mainly from locally available sources.
We do not use genetically modified or imported grains.
We aim for circular management based on connections between people and the local community.
February to April is the birth season, and April to May is the shearing season.
I grow around 30 to 40 different types of vegetables in my home garden, as well as a little asparagus.
We do not use food additives or chemical seasonings. Generally, we only use seasonings that are produced using methods that we are satisfied with.
I would be happy if interesting people who love to eat and animals would come.
The farm is still in the process of development, so I would be happy if we could work together with all the woofers to create it.
We would also like to raise chickens and pigs.
Mikiprussu!
WE ARE ACCEPTING WWOOFers
