"Circular agriculture", a traditional agricultural system that has been practiced in Minami Awaji City for over 100 years and is certified as a Japanese agricultural heritage, is an advanced production circulation system unique to Awaji Island that combines rice, onions, and cattle breeding. This is an SDGs experience tour where you can visit spots that are full of the characteristics of this region, such as onion huts, long-house gates, and reservoirs, and experience the secret of the deliciousness of onions through an actual onion harvesting experience. "Circular agriculture", a traditional agricultural system that has been practiced in Minami Awaji City for over 100 years, is a production circulation system unique to Awaji Island that combines rice, onions, and cattle breeding, and was certified as a Japanese agricultural heritage in 2020. In order to make effective use of limited farmland, rice and onions are grown alternately in the same place as "double cropping", but if this is repeated, the soil will eventually lose nutrients. That's where cow manure becomes a miracle cure. The rice straw produced by rice cultivation becomes cow feed and creates nutritious cow manure. This mutual support with the livestock industry keeps the farmland fertile and produces delicious, sweet onions. On this tour, you can actually harvest the delicious onions grown under this system while interacting with local residents. Afterwards, you will have the chance to try tasting sliced onions with onion dressing to really experience the sweetness of the onions you harvested! In addition, an official guide from Minami Awaji City will take you to spots packed with the characteristics of the region, such as the "nagayamon" house structure used by livestock farmers that supports this "recycling agriculture," the "onion hut" that was designed as a drying facility suited to the climate of Awaji Island, and the "irrigation ponds" that are the most densely populated in Japan as a solution to the water shortage that has long been a problem on the island. Make the most of what you can use, and continue to produce good things without waste. Experience the prototype of the SDGs that has been around for over 100 years. Experience Schedule Schedule Example (for a 10:00 start) 10:00 Meet at the parking lot (next to Oji Shrine, Kasumigo, Minami Awaji City) 10:00-10:40 Explanation of the Japanese Agricultural Heritage "Recycling Agriculture", tour of the surrounding area (visit the onion shed and cowshed while enjoying the scenery surrounded by nature) 10:40-11:20 Explanation of Awaji Island onions, onion harvesting experience 11:20-12:00 Tasting of freshly harvested onions (sliced or steamed whole), freshly squeezed milk ice cream

The owner travels to coffee-producing regions around the world and carefully selects coffee beans that are thoroughly managed from cultivation to harvesting and transportation! In order to enjoy high-quality coffee with a rich original flavor called "specialty coffee," he roasts and brews the beans himself. The flavor changes drastically depending on the strength of the roast and the time, so adjust the roasting level to match your favorite flavor and aroma. Experience the profound world of coffee. A place in the Shitoori district of Minami Awaji City, where idyllic rural scenery spreads out. After getting off the car, walk for two minutes along a country road surrounded by trees to the Awaji Island Coffee Laboratory "BASE COFFEE," an annex to the premises of "Fuku Cafe," a quiet, hidden old-style cafe. If a cafe is a hideaway, this laboratory has the atmosphere of a "secret base." The owner, who is obsessed with the depth and unanswerable charm of coffee, is researching and studying every day to get to know coffee better and to pursue the creation of "coffee that makes you want to talk about it with others and makes you smile". The owner carefully selects coffee beans from producing areas around the world, including Central and South America, Africa, and Asia, and thoroughly manages the process from cultivation to harvesting and transportation. Using these top quality beans, you will experience roasting, the most important process that determines the taste and aroma of coffee. For the roasting process, we use a roasting pan called "mankashakasha", which is actually used in Ethiopia, one of the countries where we purchase beans. You can choose to roast lightly to bring out the fruity aroma and acidity of citrus fruits, or roast deeply to bring out the richness and bitterness of chocolate, or you can aim for something in between. In either case, it is difficult to conduct heat thoroughly to the inside of the raw beans in order to remove the moisture contained in them. In addition, even if you choose the same beans and roast in a hand pan, the heat transfer changes depending on how the beans roll and how the wind hits them, so even if the conditions are slightly different, the taste will not be the same and an original taste will be created. The staff will give you a thorough lecture, so please feel free to try it. When the roasted beans are cooled and ground in a coffee mill, a scent containing various elements, including the scent of nuts, caramel, and citrus, rises. This is the moment when the coffee beans emit the most aroma in their life. There are hundreds of elements of the aroma, which becomes a complex and rich coffee aroma that fascinates many people. Then comes the finishing process. Hot water is poured over the fragrant freshly ground beans to extract the maximum aroma and flavor, but there is also an appropriate way to pour the hot water. When you put the carefully extracted coffee in your mouth, your face will naturally break into a smile. *One cup of roasted and ground beans will be used for tasting, but you can take the remaining beans home with you.
