延岡の 山林を救う メンマです。 BAMBOO SHOOTS TO SAVE THE FOREST OF NOBEOKA

Nobeoka-city has 80% of its area covered by forests. Abandoned bamboo forests have been an issue, since fast-growing bamboos block sunlight entering into the forests and stop the growth of trees. Bamboo forests with shallow roots can also cause landslides. To tackle these issues, we have started a project to reborn abandoned bamboo forests into luscious seasoned bamboo shoots.
