Experience Autumn in Inagi: Chestnut Picking and Acorn Art Workshop

Embrace Autumn with Chestnut Picking and Acorn Art

As fall approaches, what better way to welcome the season than by participating in an exciting outdoor event in Inagi? On September 7 and 14, from 10 AM to 1 PM, Palsystem Tokyo is organizing a delightful chestnut picking and acorn art workshop at Inagi Megumi no Satoyama, an idyllic setting that encourages families to connect with nature.

This event, made possible through a partnership with the company nuucoto, will provide participants with the opportunity to collect various chestnuts and learn how to create unique artistic pieces using acorns and other natural materials. Held in a scenic satoyama environment, families can stroll through the grounds, gather chestnuts and the prickly husks, and bring home their treasures to turn into personalized art.

A Rich Heritage for Community Engagement

Inagi Megumi no Satoyama offers a platform for local residents to enjoy nature-based activities and farming experiences. Established in 2004 after Palsystem Tokyo acquired a forested area that had been neglected for over 30 years, this space has blossomed into a lively community hub. The site was designated a natural environment conservation area by Inagi City in 2018, emphasizing its significance in fostering environmental sustainability and community interaction.

Every year, nearly 3,000 people partake in various activities hosted in this beautiful setting. The facility features an interaction space equipped with a pizza oven, where families can engage in agricultural harvesting experiences. Regular events, close to 40 in number each year, draw a myriad of visitors, creating an engaging environment for both Palsystem members and local residents.

Crafting Nature-Based Memories

The art of crafting is not only a creative outlet but also a way to appreciate the local ecosystem. At the event, expert advice on art creation will be offered by nuucoto, which has been organizing seasonal celebrations to enjoy the diverse beauty of Inagi Megumi no Satoyama. Previous events have proven popular, highlighting the community's enthusiasm for picking nuts and using nature’s bounties in their creative strategies.

By participating in the workshop, families are encouraged to nurture their creativity while fostering a sense of belonging to the community and strengthening their connection to the natural world. It’s an excellent opportunity for participants to learn about environmental conservation, the importance of nature, and the joys of crafting.
