On Saturday, April 6, 2024, the 47th Gunze Kyoto Model Forest Movement was held in Ayabe at Obata-cho (the ruins of Obata Castle). This time we mainly cleared the bushes and trees. Under the clear sky, we transported the felled trees in a relay and turned them into chips with a crusher. We also added a new place for growing beetle larvae.This year we can see the beautiful flowering of the Mitsuba azalea as a result of our previous efforts to clear the brush.
