Hello everyone! My name is Chris Uchiyama and I wanted to know how kominka owners perceive their forests. If you own a forest or use one, may I ask you to contribute to the following survey by letting me know your insights and perceptions?
https://forms.gle/jSEWK81gcVpnmwJg8
Through your answers/responses, I hope to explore people's and society's perceptions of the value of forests, including their cultural significance, and identify strategies to restore a sustainable and harmonious relationship between humans, society, and forests.
Rest assured that responses will be kept anonymous. Thank you very much for your contributions, inputs, thoughts and questions, if any. You can also contact me via christmas.uchiyama@gmail.com.

What type of vegetables are you growing in the winter that thrive or are an important part of your diet?
Recently I had a lot of deer problems, and unfortunately, much of my main prized cabbage and cauliflower were eaten. In fact, they even went for my garlic which I never expected.
However, the leafy greens such as mizunam spinach, salad greens, chingensai and daikon were luckily spared. Those are perfect items for a winter hot pot.

I would be curious to know if people are using old or new materials in renovations or a mix of both.
Old materials for areas that you want to show off, have that patina. Flooring, for example. But new materials are fine where it's going to be hidden, such as joists or plasterboard underneath shikkui. The key, I think, is to avoid a clash of design sense.
