The work itself is no joke. I grow up in the city and never have been handy before. I got to learn so much knowledge about the farmkeeping. Aki patiently explained my questions and showed me how to use tools for each type. During the day off, Aki took us for hiking (and eat cup noodle on the top of the mountain) and swimming in the river and ocean. Aki cooked delicious lunch during work days. He also took us to restaurants or buy bento boxes in the supermarket some days. Aki's recommendations are always good! We also met Aki's friends and had fun time together. I appreciated and enjoyed here!

I had a wonderful time learning about the bees and making a difference. Aki's passion and dedication to nature and the wellbeing of the farmpopulation is evident. I gained so much knowledge from his years of experience, and he always encouraged questions. Tasks were varied and covered all aspects of the farmcare. the farmis rough and ready - prepare to get hot, dirty and encounter bugs of all kinds - but it's a genuine and rewarding experience for those who aren't squeamish. Aki took us on adventures in beautiful places during off days. It was an unforgettable opportunity I will always treasure.

Grateful to have gained hands-on experience with hive inspections, bottling and labelingthethethe farm, and seeing rural area of Tokushima! Aki has been the farmkeeping for several years and has a lot of knowledge on Italian the farmbees. I would recommend working remotely, or volunteering/ traveling with another person during your stay as Aki's home and business can be isolating at times due to a more remote location and varying beliefs of globalism / economy / politics. Extremely thankful for my time overall, and the nearby temples & shrines (and of course -- the bees) are so beautiful!

The work was fun and interesting and there was no stress. At firstthe the farmsounds daunting, but things become smoother as you get used to it. Aki-san was also very flexible with my schedule and he taught me a lot about many different things. I hope there is another chance in the future. But overall a great host!

Working here was amazing! Akinori was very thoughtful about the well-being of us volunteers, and ensured that we were doing different jobs, activities and visiting new places every day. I learnt a lot about the structure and behaviours of the farmcolonies, the processes ofthethethe farm, and acquired new practical skills whilst getting to appreciate Tokushima's beauty. Akinori also shared with us a lot of his knowledge about agriculture, flowers, animals and Japanese history, having grown up in the Japanese countryside. A fantastic experience, especially for those interested in ecology and biology.
