What we offer you
What is organic farming?
Organic farmers use natural materials such as compost and livestock manure to improve the soil instead of chemicals. We also use environmentally friendly farming practices to control insects, rather than harmful pesticides, to create a healthy growing environment in a sustainable manner. Our practices include producing our own organic transplants, utilizing fallow fields, and composting food scraps and other materials which would otherwise be wasted. Therefore, people and nature can coexist in harmony as the vegetables we grow are safe, nutritious, and delicious.
For our health, happiness, community, and nature.
Connecting with people like you and providing resources for the next generation.
At Midori Farm, our goal is a sustainable food system. We cultivate unused farmland to produce organic crops in a way that is safe for the environment, the people who work in the fields, and everyone who eats the vegetables grown there.
We not only revive fallow fields and produce over 50 varieties of delicious organic vegetables and herbs, but also provide opportunities to learn about agriculture and organize various events to experience the farm and its natural surroundings.
