Small Scale Rice Farming in Japan-1

Rice farming usually conjures mental images of vast, sprawling rice paddies. That’s not always the case, as Tokyo Green Space recently discovered. They came across Ginza Farm, a tiny urban farm in Tokyo.

The operation occupies an empty lot on a Ginza side street, and is host to several varieties of plants, two ducks and a frog. It’s a small but inspiring example that shows that you don’t need a lot of space to grow food.

  1. Brave concept! I’m curious how the air quality effects the growth of these farms.

  2. @Aziz, me too… then I think, polluted air which I’m breathing anyway, or farm produce possibly laden with chemicals?
