We are pleased to announce a public construction project in Misato Town, Miyazaki Prefecture, and a workshop in Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture. Both projects involve environmental restoration at a children's playground in a rural area.
I feel truly fortunate to be able to create a space where children can spend their time. The presence of trees and the comfortable natural environment allow them to grow and develop.
I am incredibly grateful for this wonderful opportunity to be involved in work that represents such hope for the future.
This time, the tour includes open construction work and workshops as part of the Kyushu tour.
I've included details and links for each event, so please feel free to join if you're interested.

After the site preparation work for the planned school building is completed, and before the building is erected, we will carry out water flow improvement work to ensure proper circulation of air and water in the soil, and to utilize the diverse life forms and plants that contribute to its development.
How can we co-create human land use and environmental regeneration/maintenance in all kinds of locations, from cities to mountainous areas?
The earth breathes? What does that even mean?
By experiencing this method firsthand, you can learn its effective concepts and practical applications.
From children to the elderly,
I can do what I can while touching the soil and plants.
The comfort of becoming a proper part of the whole.
Time to experience on the land where the new children's center will be built.
Start creating the future with your own hands, taking ownership of it.
For those who are concerned about environmental issues but don't know what they can do...

Earth Regeneration Workshop @ Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture
Reservations are now being accepted.
Why do plants wither and die?
Why are the number of living creatures decreasing?
As he confronted life itself, he realized something.
The "breath of the earth" is weakening.
~From the guidebook for the movie "Moribito"~
The film "The Forest People" depicts people who are seriously working to regenerate the land and confront natural disasters.
Humans are not just beings that destroy nature; they should also be able to enrich it.
Through a fortunate connection, we are pleased to announce that we will be hosting a workshop on land regeneration, where participants will learn to feel the breath of the earth and regulate the flow of water. The workshop will feature Takumi Masumo, a disciple of Tomonori Yano, an environmental regeneration physician who is working on land regeneration in the film "Moribito."
