#Roots Today, I tried to collect roots from a birch tree that was in the way when building a road. Although thin, it is flexible and strong, and can be used as an accent for bark crafts and basket weaving. When building a road, it is necessary to dig up the roots with heavy machinery, so I hope to be able to make use of those parts as well. # Birch # Basket weaving # Road building # Forest road # Work road # Forestry # Small forestry # Hokkaido # Hokkaido # Forest # Forest # Hokkaido forestry # Self-logging forestry # Sustainable living # Living with nature # Satoyama management # Country living # The right person in the right place # Forestry for living with nature # Under nature

The instructors of the birch bark craft workshop I attended in Obihiro came to see the birch trees in our mountains. [Shizenshita, Tatsuya and Hitomi Ueii]

There are especially a lot of eggplants, cucumbers, beans, tomatoes, etc. They are all very reasonably priced, so please come and buy them! [Minorich Hokuryu]

There are days when my eyes and head are exhausted after work. I'm currently experimenting with birch wood to create a light that's just right for those nights. Today, I'm adjusting the shape and how the light shines through. [Nature-based - Tatsuya and Hitomi Kamii]

The roots in the soil are all different in color, shape, and flexibility. They are plain, but interesting. And they are also a usable material. [Shizenshita, Tatsuya and Hitomi Ueii]
