Nature-harmonious site
The forest is home to a wide variety of creatures. Besides deer and wild boars, you can also see goshawks, owls, flying squirrels, foxes, rabbits, and fireflies. Many species of insects and plants have also been identified. This area was designated a "Nature Coexistence Site" by the Ministry of the Environment in 2024. Here, we develop leisure businesses such as forest adventures and mountain biking (MTB) while maintaining biodiversity. We strive to coexist with nature and work towards its conservation.

Odakyu Hunter Bank
Hunter Bank is a platform that connects young hunters with farmers and foresters struggling with wildlife damage. The first three months are a lecture period where participants learn how to set up box traps, attract wild animals, kill them, and butcher them at Tsujimura Farm and in the forest. Trail cameras send footage of the traps to members' mobile phones, and if an animal is caught, they can actually experience killing and butchering it.
