Kimino Farm Membership
Support Rural Farming Communities
The Kimino Farm program invites you to support our efforts to revive rural farming communities in Shimoda, Shizuoka — a beach town 2.5 hours south of Tokyo. This initiative combines sustainable agriculture, cultural preservation, and meaningful connections to revitalize the region.
Cultural Significance
Shimoda is more than just a coastal surf town — it’s a community with deep-rooted farming traditions. For generations, local families have cultivated the land using traditional methods, growing fruits and vegetables that thrive in the region’s climate.
In recent years, rural farming communities across Japan have faced challenges such as population decline and land abandonment. Through the Kimino Farm program, we aim to preserve these traditions by restoring farmland, supporting local farmers, and creating opportunities for future generations to sustain these practices.
Support Rural Farming Communities
Reviving farmland isn’t just about planting trees — it’s about nurturing the ecosystem that sustains them. Our approach emphasizes sustainable methods that promote soil regeneration, protect biodiversity, and minimize environmental impact.
By implementing practices like organic composting, natural pest control, and efficient water management, we aim to restore balance to the land while producing high-quality yuzu for our drinks. These efforts not only improve the farm’s long-term productivity but also contribute to the broader goal of creating a healthier environment.
