"Australia House" Summer Landscaping Maintenance 2026

In the garden of Australia House, there is an artwork called the “Gardening Project.” While work on the project—except during spring and fall—is usually carried out with residents of the local Urada district, we’ve decided to invite adults from the general public to join us this time. Let’s work together—discussing the garden, plants, and the differences between the flora of Kanagawa and Tsumari—and then enjoy some tea afterward.
