LINE 224 Forest Cultivation Activity at Greenpia-Yame

On June 3, 2017 (Saturday), NTT West Fukuoka Group took part in the forest cultivation activity held at "Kutsurogi no Mori - Greenpia-Yame" (Fukuoka Prefecture, Yame City, Kurogimachi).
A total of 71 employees and their family members took part in the sixth round of the same activity.

"Kutsurogi no Mori - Greenpia-Yame" is well equipped with lodging, sports, leisure, hot spring and other facilities within an extensive area. It became the first accredited "Forest Therapy" site in Fukuoka Prefecture in 2008. The place is well known for its wide variety of colorful flowers including cherry blossoms in spring and hydrangea in June, as well as a famous spot for autumn leaves in fall. The rhododendrons that we planted three years ago have also grown tall and borne beautiful flowers in May which offered a pleasant view to the visitors.

Blessed with fine weather, it was a perfect day for the forest cultivation activity. A safety briefing was conducted by staff from the Kurogi Branch of Yame City Office as well as the members of Greenpia-Yame, who provided the site for this activity. This was followed by approximately one hour of weeding activity.

After the activity ended, participants washed off their sweat and refreshed themselves in the hot springs inside the premises and enjoyed spending a meaningful weekend.

NTT West Fukuoka Group will continue to promote the "Midori Ippai Project" through our concerted and proactive efforts in forest conservation activities, such as the undergrowth weeding event held this time, while deepening our cooperative relationship with the local government bodies.
