The Concept of This Program

In collaboration with Shinshu Azumino Friend Farm, a fruit farm in Azumino City, Nagano Prefecture, participants will have the opportunity to experience peach and corn harvesting, eat raw peaches, and observe apple harvesting. This program also includes a full-scale camping experience with tent pitching and overnight stays, plus a trip to the popular riverside spot, Karasugawa Valley, where participants can enjoy swimming in the cool waters of the melting snow from the Northern Alps. This program allows participants to fully experience nature.

This program is one in the Campship Academy's "Learn with your Five Senses Farm Experience" series, and places importance on fostering an interest in agriculture and food as a "formative experience" for children by providing opportunities not only to harvest but also to learn about the growing process and to come into contact with the farmers' thoughts.For example, "What shape is an apple tree?", "What color are apple blossoms?", and "What happens to bruised apples?" These simple questions will ignite children's "curiosity."

Key Features

Explore the world's most transparent waters by charter boat and land on Minamijima Island.

Participants will charter a private boat to enjoy snorkeling around Chichijima’s neighboring Ani-jima, known for its exceptional beauty, and land on the remote island of Minami-jima. There, they will take in breathtaking views of pristine white sand beaches and the stunning natural lagoon, Ogiike.

Experience the "authentic nature" of a World Heritage site and enjoy Japan's best starry skies.

By day, feel the island's pulse as you climb gajumaru trees and trek through nature, and by night, marvel at the starry sky, lauded as the best in Japan. This is an intense six-day experience where you'll fully immerse yourself in a World Heritage site.

24-hour voyages and communal living foster self-reliance and cooperation.

The long sea voyage and communal living on the island are excellent opportunities to get away from convenient daily life and develop self-reliance and cooperation. The experience of working with your peers to manage the schedule and stepping into an unknown environment will foster a strong sense of self-esteem.
