Kazu-san and Cham are really lovely people, as soon as you show your commitment and handle the responsibility they are very open. First impressions might not be the best but believe me with time they also open up. Working on a farm was really fun but sometimes hard work especially for taller people as you had to bend very often to mow the grass or fertilise. Lunches prepared by Cham were really tasty and all the fruits from the farm were perfect addition to the meals! Breakfast and dinner are rather simple so I do recommend stuffing your fridge shelf with food as the shop is quite far away.

I enjoyed my first Worldpackers experience with the farm & gained a deeper appreciation for Japanese fruits. We worked 4 days a week, ~8:15am - 4:30pm with 1~1.5 hours lunch & 3 days off. Most of the work was weed-whacking, with other tasks including spreading of fertilisers, and helping out at the reception in the vineyard. I'm also grateful for the other volunteers and staff I met here that made this experience unforgettable. Thank you Kazu & Cham for the hospitality and this opportunity!

Volunteering on the farm was a wonderful surprise. Kazu and his family took great care of us and always met my needs. Being vegetarian was no problem. On working days we had delicious home-cooked lunches and usually bento boxes for dinner + the best seasonal fruit of your life. Kazu answered all questions and made sure we understood everything. I'll cherish the stories he shared about Japanese culture and farming. Sometimes you may be the only foreign volunteer, which can feel a bit lonely, but luckily there weren't many days like that.

Kazu is a really great guy! I had a wonderful experience at the farm. Unfortunately, I only stayed for a short time — I wish I could have stayed longer. It was a completely different experience from my usual life, and I totally recommend it. I made lots of friends from all over the world, and the food was amazing. Thank you, Kazusan!

Kasu-san is the most friendliest and charismatic host a volunteer can ask for. He told us history of Yamanashi and all about the plants and tree in the surround fields and farms. Great dorm you live in and plenty of fresh Fruit to go around.
