Organic farming & guest house renovations


The experience

Green Planet Mura is designed to contribute to our little area by doing things right--organic farming, being good neighbors, contributing to the community and providing a base for foreigners to get a taste of Japan. The work hours are limited, but that basic attitude should prevail at all times.
We prefer experienced, mature volunteers.

One month is the absolute minimum except for volunteers with exactly the skills we need.

Program Details

When we have skilled volunteers, I'm happy to discuss the goals and turn them loose to set their own hours and schedule. When a volunteer requires quite a lot of management, their schedule will depend on mine, and generally we will tend to work full days.
