We cultivate figs in the Sanogawa area of Kanagawa Prefecture, a region known for its beautiful satoyama (traditional Japanese countryside) landscape that has been selected as one of Japan's 100 most scenic. To ensure that everyone can enjoy delicious figs while protecting this rich satoyama, we practice sustainable farming methods*. We have also created a handmade playground on the farm, where local children can enjoy playing in nature.

​

*We basically do not use any pesticides or chemical fertilizers. We use the grass that grows on the farm and cow manure that we receive from a nearby cattle shed as fertilizer. Only when we find holes made by the larvae of the longhorn beetle, which devour the fig trees, do we use a pesticide spray by inserting a needle into the hole.
