Message To WWOOFers In Japanese
ヨナグニウマの保存と活用を目的に活動しています。基本的な活動は、ヨナグニウマを乗用として調教し、子供や障害者、一般の方(観光客も含む)に馬遊びを楽しんでもらい、ヨナグニウマに対する意識を高めてもらうというやり方をしています。ヨナグニウマの活用法として、ホースセラピーや動物介在教育にも力を入れており、人と動物がゆったり安心してふれあえ、心癒される牧場づくりを目指しています。
ここでの体験は、子供や動物が好きな人、将来、自分の牧場を持ちたい人、などに向いています。動物や虫が嫌いな人、障害者や子供が苦手な人、汗をかくのが苦手な人には向きません。
Message To WWOOFers In English
We are engaged in activities aimed at the preservation and utilization of Yonaguni ponies. Our main activities involve training Yonaguni horses for riding so that children, people with disabilities, and the general public (including tourists) can enjoy interacting with them and develop a greater awareness of these rare ponies.
As part of our efforts to make use of Yonaguni ponies, we focus on animal-assisted education for kids.
This experience is ideal for those who love children and animals, have a dream of owning their own farm in the future, or enjoy building handmade structures. However, it may not be suitable for those who dislike animals and insects, are uncomfortable around children or people with disabilities, or do not enjoy physical work that involves sweating.
