Stepping Hotbed Making & Seeding Workshop (Sustaina UBU)
I participated in an Events of farmers in the Village held on February 17, 2025. We collected a large amount of fallen leaves, and as the name suggests, we stepped on the fallen leaves to create a nursery to grow young seedlings, and sowed square beans and several types of okra.
A hotbed of trampling? What is it?
It's an unfamiliar word, isn't it?
This is an old-fashioned agricultural technique that is said to have been adopted in the Taisho period.
Use fermented fallen leaves as "mulch" and "potting soil" without using electricity.
Use the "fermentation heat" when fallen leaves ferment, and Use the heat generated when bacteria and bacteria decompose organic matter.
Since summer vegetables require a high temperature of about 20~30°C for germination and growth, we Use a hotbed to start growing seedlings in the cold winter months.
Events to create a stepping hotbed where you can slowly exercise your legs and hips while feeling the warmth of the bacteria in the field, and to touch the seeds
Location: Ubuyama no Kaze (field)
