Zero Waste Life : Once you start, you can’t stop “Local Food Cycling”

I started a composting at home in February of this year. For about 3 and a half months, I kept throwing food scraps into the same bag, followed by a three-week maturation period, and now I have nutrient-rich compost! And I sowed three kinds of seeds: 1) radish, 2) arugula, and 3) mini bok choy.

Summer Vacation Plan : Yes, Hawaii!

"We've got our flights, we've got our accommodations, and now all we have to do is wait for the flight to leave!" The New Normal is not to be. It has been about half a year since my last visit to the U.S., so I proceeded to search the Internet, hoping that the required documents and inspections had been eased.

Zero Waste Life : Impressions of 2 Months Composting at Home

Two months have passed in the blink of an eye since I started our first composting at home. Normally, two months is the food scraps-in period, followed by a three-week ripening period to complete the composting process, but since we live in two locations, we only generate food scraps on an average of four days a week in Tokyo. So I decided to continue throwing in garbage for a little longer.

Onjuku Gardening Club – Day9 : Changing from fall/winter to spring/summer vegetables

Saturday, April 9, was the day for planting spring and summer vegetables, but weeding was by far the more time-consuming task. From the time we gathered at 8:00 am until the chime sounded to signal noon, we frantically weeded two fields for four hours.

March Beach Cleanup Day in Onjuku

I was going to write a blog about the March beach cleanup, but nearly two weeks passed in the blink of an eye, and now it's April. The March beach cleanup was conducted by four people when there were many surfers. And the fava beans that were sown in October will grow quickly in March, and we are looking forward to the day when they bear fruit.
