On January 14, 2024, Mr. Yoshida Toshimichi, also known as Kin-chan sensei, visited Yoron Island and conducted a practical session for planting vegetables. This video is a recording of that session.
About five months ago, Kin-chan sensei visited the island and taught us how to prepare soil for pesticide-free home gardening.
Here's the video from that time:

After the planting session, we had many questions. Many people on Yoron Island have their own fields and are planting various vegitables. So everyone seemed to eager to learn.
