ð³Forest Volunteer Work: Wood Deck Painting & Bamboo Handrailsð³
詳现
Would you like to join a project to restore an abandoned forest and create a comfortable, welcoming space in Ogawamachi, Saitama, about one hour from Ikebukuro in Tokyo?
We are currently working on improving a slightly elevated, sunny flat area in the forest to create a relaxing space.
We are continuing the construction of a floating wood deck, and the main tasks planned for this day are:
ã»Painting the floor boards of the wood deck
ã»Reinforcing and adding log pillars that form the foundation
ã»Installing bamboo handrails on the stairs
In addition, we also plan to work on:
ã»Setting up racks for drying firewood
ã»Preparing and organizing the area for leaf compost frames
There are many different kinds of tasks, and help with carrying materials is especially appreciated.
No special skills are required, and people who are not used to outdoor work are welcome too. We will work at a comfortable pace, and everyone can choose tasks they feel able to do.
Working in the forest is great exercise, and the work area at the top is sunny and very pleasant.
This event is perfect for people who are interested in nature or the environment, who want to move their bodies outdoors, who are curious about forest volunteer activities, or who are simply looking to meet new people. Everyone is welcome, so please feel free to join us ð

ãAbout This Forest Projectã
More than 70 percent of Japanâs land area is covered by forests, but many of them are no longer used and are becoming increasingly neglected.
When forests are left unmanaged, people stop entering them, and problems such as illegal dumping of industrial waste and garbage can occur. In some cases, the land is sold to solar panel companies and completely cleared.
Forests that were once used for firewood, compost, and building materials have gradually lost their value as they have been replaced by fossil fuels, chemical fertilizers, and imported materials.
Since the COVID period, we have been gradually working to restore and care for this forest.
Our goal is to revive it as a place with new value that fits modern life, and to manage and maintain it in a sustainable way. We hope to create a forest that offers relief from the stresses of modern society and encourages connection and interaction between people.
So far, we have held many events while continuing to improve and care for the forest.

Letâs enjoy nature together while taking part in this forest restoration project with fellow nature lovers!
We look forward to seeing you there! ð
