The need for self-restraint to go out due to the influence of the new coronavirus is attracting attention in home gardens where rented land is used to grow vegetables.
Since the spread of the new coronavirus infection, a private kitchen garden in Adachi-ku, Tokyo has received a series of inquiries about 20 requests.
Up until now, the staff had given direct advice on how to distribute fertilizers and how to plant seeds and seedlings in this kitchen garden. A woman in her 50s was planting seedlings such as eggplant and tomato while playing a video on her smartphone. The woman said, "I can feel relieved because it is not dense. It is the first time to grow while watching the video, but it is fresh."
For those who can't come directly to the fields, we have started a new service to manage the fields on behalf of our staff, and we have received 15 requests so far. A man in his 40s who was working as a family said, "My usual work is telework, I always get tired of only using a computer and a telephone. When I can go out and work, it is a stress relief and it's fun" .
Mr. Masahiro Tada, who manages the kitchen garden, said, "I would appreciate it if you could use it as a refreshing place while you can not go to commercial facilities or take the train to go out. I want to do it. "
