I have a lot of respect for Kenji and Tomoko as the permaculture designer.

I really needed to hear what this guy had to say. So much of my gardening is based on hoarding and stockpiling, I think I might try this guy's approach instead.

Thank you Kenji for the inspiration. I also wish to simplify my life and live of the land instead of running after materialistic life. Unfortunately when we were young we were encourage by school to have this type of modern life. It was seen as being successful. Now as an adult I see that it was futile. I am now trying to change my life and teach my children to be happy living a simple life.

This is so beautiful video. Thank you for sharing this

This literally brought me to tears. So beautiful, for so many reasons. I wish I was able to visit, and learn.

Early on, I was using a small grass knife like that, then I got a heavier hand sickle that can handle branches and roots up to 1/2-2" _and_ the grass, too - it means fewer tools to clutter the place up, and less time spent running about swapping tools. I have that same goofy grin on my face half the time, laughing for no particular reason - oh, yes, there IS a reason: Everything I need to live I have, and more besides, it is all around me, growing, and I am a part of it. If the people out there knew that life did not have to be so hard, so stressful, so miserable .. they would quit their 9-5 jobs in the city, move to the country to a small piece of land, no improvements, just a few tools, and build a life worth actually living. Some days I may work 14 hours .. some WEEKS I hardly do anything at all, except whatever I want to do .. the irony is, humans are so fit for this kind of work, it doesn't even seem like work .. so I have to laugh again! It isn't just seeds that need to keep moving on .. our trees can get root bound in a nursery setting, develop bad habits .. so, if we cannot sell them within 3 years, we give them away (locally - I don't have money to ship free trees!) or guerilla plant them, spreading the garden beyond this 1/3 acre.

早い段階で、私はそのような小さな草のナイフを使用していましたが、1/2-2インチまでの枝や根、草も扱うことができる重い鎌を手に入れました。 道具の交換に費やす時間が減りました. 私は半分の時間で同じ間抜けなニヤニヤ笑いを浮かべています. 特に理由もなく笑っています. 成長している私の周りにあり、私はその一部です. そこにいる人々が、人生がそれほど難しく、ストレスが多く、惨めである必要がないことを知っていれば..彼らは都市での9-5の仕事を辞めるでしょう. 田舎の小さな土地に引っ越す, 何も改善せず, ほんの少しの道具で, 実際に生きるに値する生活を築く. 14時間働く日もある.. やりたいこと以外はほとんど何もしない週もある. .. 皮肉なことに、人間はこの種の仕事にとても適しています。 前進し続ける必要があるのは種子だけではありません..私たちの木は苗床の環境で根が張り付いてしまい、悪い習慣を身に付ける可能性があります..そのため、3年以内に販売できない場合は、それらを譲渡します（地元では. 無料の木を出荷するお金がありません!) または、ゲリラ的に植えて、この 1/3 エーカーを超えて庭を広げます。

Another wonderful video introduction of inspiring people in Japan - thanks so much! I agree 1000% with what Kenji says about changing the motto in Japan (and worldwide) from MORE MORE MORE to ENOUGH - very Zen - more awareness and appreciating that we have enough and renewing and preserving our current natural assets is vital and yet there's so little awareness of this here in Japan

I absolutely loved this video n his Wisdom thank you for sharing 😊 ❤

What an amazing human Kenji is, and hi wife. I love listening to him and think he should write a book so the world knows his ideas. Thank you for this wonderful video.

Hope all people understood the message.. we are the custodians of planet earth 🌏. Nothing belongs to us . Belong to the whole universe.. this amazing souls are gives an awakening.

Too much selfishness, hatred, division, fear ,ignorance and arrogance and indifference with the suffering of others in need . Listening to these giving loving humble words from this beautiful soul being ,really wake me up more deep
