Wuji Harvest &
Hibiscus transplant experience
Wuji (sugar cane) represents the image of Okinawa. In fact, the harvest season is winter.
Why don't you experience the sugar cane harvest scenery, which is a winter tradition on Kume Island?
In addition, there is a movement to stop the outflow of soil by planting plants such as hibiscus in the fields in order to improve the "red soil outflow problem" in which the red soil in the fields flows out into the sea and the coral and marine ecosystems are destroyed.
It is a tour that can contribute to improving the environment of Kume Island by planting hibiscus in the field along with the experience of harvesting Shoeblackplant.
I hope it will give you an opportunity to learn about the current state of the island.
