Using water from the river and

growing her own food,

An Okinawan housewife Using water from

the river and growing her own food,

An Okinawan housewife

An Okinawan housewife she's raising her 2

children in harmony with nature and the seasons.

An Okinawan housewife

Come here, Wako.

Hurry, now.

I'm almost done.

Do you want to step on them?

I'm a housewife.

A busy housewife?

Or an artist.

No, a housewife.

I've always liked warm places.

The culture, people,

climate, vegetation.

I like warmth, heat. Like Africa.

In Japan, it was Okinawa.

I like the people, the culture,

the climate, the vegetation.

What do I enjoy most about life here?

Let me see...

What do I enioy...'.7

Spending time with me!

Spending time with Wako.

That's what it is. My children.

Children. Right now, anyway.

You're amazing. I can't do that.

I envy you.

Go ahead.

In any case, this tiny seed

grows so big, making thousands more.

It's amazing.

To witness these miracles every day.

It's mysterious, amusing,

it makes me happy, it's fun.

And it's edible!

Sounds good.

Carry me.

I have to roll up my pants.

Is there a season for planting seeds?

I always thought it was

during the new moon.

But some crops do better

during the full moon.

As the new moon becomes full,

the energy from the roots is drawn

towards the top of the plant.

As the full moon becomes new again

the energy moves downwards

from the top of the plant to the roots.

So when the moon is new, there's

a lot of energy in root vegetables.

When the moon is full, the fruits

and leaves are full of energy.

It even changes within one day,

or with the ebb and flow of the tide.

We all just do what we want to do

to make life worthwhile.

In farming, there's a

time lag in the results.

If you do what needs to be done today,

a few weeks later, a flower will bloom.

You can see the fruits of your labor

so it's very fulfilling.

With children, the time lag is

even longer, but it's the same.

I feel sorry for kids who don't get a

chance to experience nature.

To play in the mud,

to play with animals.

I think kids need that.

Adults have a choice whether to live

in the city or in the country.

But kids need to be in touch

with the earth, I think.

Following Masanobu Fukuoka's

natural style of farming,

she crossbreeds different types of trees

and vegetables by mixing their seeds.

She harvests her crop

and enjoys them as they are.

She doesn't use a refrigerator,

so she preserves her harvest

or turns them into spices.

We live in this...

what do you call this?

In the natural world,

in the balance of nature.

We are balanced by nature.

This balance preserves us
