On March 27th, an information session on the establishment of "Niseko Yukimori Kosha Co., Ltd." was held at the townspeople center.
"Forestry in Niseko Town?"
It is a company that works on the circulation of Riya forest resources.
This month, we will introduce the company's philosophy, business strategy, and business content.


Background of Company Establishment Forests have many functions, such as conserving water resources, soil, and biodiversity, and providing recreational spaces. However, in order to demonstrate its function, forests must be maintained and managed in a sound manner through the use of timber, etc., and forest resources must be used in a cyclical manner. The forest in Niseko Town is an important local resource that accounts for 67% of the total area, but the current situation is that the wood produced in the town is not fully utilized.
In order for Niseko Town to exist as a sustainable town in the future, it is important to face such forest issues in the long term, promote the cyclical use of forest resources, and improve the local economic circulation. .
The town declared a climate emergency in July 2020 and aims to have net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. In order to control greenhouse gas emissions, energy conservation and proper management of forests are essential.
Absorption of carbon dioxide by heat is required. In addition, in 2021, the "Forest Vision" was formulated, showing the basic philosophy and direction of the town's forest development. Therefore, forestry business owners and promoters of towns, etc. will play a central role in building a sustainable forest development and material production system, and by visualizing the distribution of local resources within the region through the distribution and use of wood produced in the town and disseminating information, We established a company that builds economic circulation. This company will work on "sustainable town development" where forests and people's lives coexist and improve the attractiveness and value of Niseko Town.
Philosophy and Business Strategy
[Philosophy] Cultivate forests, connect with life, and live together
[Business Strategy] ・We will act on behalf of management management and other local government forestry affairs so that the local forests envisioned by the forest and land laws can continue to be a stronghold for consumers.
・ Niseko Town Forest Vision “Niseko Symbiotic Circulation Forestry
Based on this, we will carry out planned forest maintenance, material production, and wood processing in collaboration with businesses in the vicinity of the area.
・ Responsible for projects that contribute to improving the local procurement rate and circulation rate of wood in Niseko Town
・We will create new value and provide goods and services based on a multifaceted perspective that takes advantage of the regional characteristics of Niseko, without being bound by the conventional value of forests and timber.

Niseko Yukimori Kosha Co., Ltd. Three pillars of business

○ Niseko Town Timber Distribution
・We plan, purchase, process, and sell products for housing construction, etc. in the town as well as distribution of town-produced timber in the surrounding area.
○ New forest management
・As a public-involved organization, act on behalf of local government forestry
・ In addition to the current forestry work, in promoting the forestry in Niseko Town, we will take on areas (new work) that have not been touched much and accumulate knowledge and experience.

○Forest tourism
・In Niseko, a tourist destination, we will provide forest tourism, such as forestry experience events, tours and activity services that utilize forest spaces.

Business contents
At Niseko Yukimori Kosha Co., Ltd., in addition to the business of facing forest issues, we are working on the cyclical use of forest resources. I will work on it.

Empty houses in residential areas can be a problem from a landscape and safety perspective, but forests pose similar challenges. Unfortunately, unsightly thickets and desolate land are scattered along the roads in the town, which many tourists see.
At present, the timber that can be cut and used in the town was planted from the postwar period to the high-growth period. At a time when food was also a struggle, our predecessors cut bamboo grass with a sickle, planted seedlings by hand, and then cleared undergrowth for a few more years without machines.
It's a forest that raised me while doing it. After that, the forestry industry was branded as a "desclining industry" during a period of economic rationality and profit priority. After going through a long period of stagnation, the “wood shock” caused the price of imported materials to soar and the absolute amount to be in short supply.
As a result, the sun is about to shine on forestry again.
It is a local asset that is made possible by the steady efforts to grow the forest and the economic burden during the shady times. Forestry, which is repeated in cycles of more than 60 years, needs to be continued for a sustainable future, rather than aiming for "short-term profits".
I have. In 2019, a forest environment transfer tax was also prepared as a source of funding.
We hope that the townspeople will watch over our organization with a warm heart.

This month's reporter is Yasumi Sugiura. Participated as a volunteer in a cat spaying and neutering operation held in November last year.

Volunteer Circle Connected by Stray Cats
It's "help love"!

In November of last year, Mr. Daimon of "Mobile VET Office", a hospital specializing in sterilization and castration surgery for animals from Ebetsu City, came to Miyata Kaikan in Niseko Town. At that time, more than 30 volunteers participated in the spaying and neutering operation with the desire to "help the cats", and I was moved and moved by their love for cats and their wonderful power.
Here are the impressions from the volunteers who helped with the surgery.
◆Stray cats and domestic cats are important lives. I wanted to create an environment where all children can live with peace of mind. When you see a stray cat, where is this child's house? What about rice? I wish I could spread the things that I can care about.
Helping with shaving with sterilization castration surgery, which is usually left to the doctor and cannot be seen
It was a very valuable experience. Once again, it's been a good opportunity to think about the efforts to reduce unfortunate cats.
◆Cats are highly fertile and have an average of 3 estrous periods per year (mating is almost certain to result in pregnancy), giving birth to an average of 5 kittens each time.
The kittens will be able to breed after half a year after birth.
It was really nice to be able to spay and neuter stray cats cheaply so as not to increase the number of sad lives.
◆It was a very valuable experience for me to cut the hair of cats before surgery, clean their nails and clean their ears, and interact with cute cats.
Domestic cats, rescued cats, stray cats, all come from different backgrounds, but cats are loving beings that bring comfort and happiness to people. May all cats live happily ever after. I'm a stupid cat.
Even though I was really busy, I felt saved by the pure kindness and love of the volunteers.

Niseko High School Agricultural Club

After the face-to-face ceremony and agricultural qualification
3rd year Vice Chairman Mizuki Tanaka

On April 11th (Tuesday), the “face-to-face ceremony” and the “agricultural club orientation” were held.
The face-to-face ceremony was an event where the 1st and 2nd/3rd year students interacted for the first time, and the 2nd/3rd year students introduced the 1st year club activities and HR.
In the agriculture orientation, the agriculture club executives gave explanations and quizzes to the first-year students to learn about the agriculture club.
The first-year students seemed nervous when they met their seniors for the first time in a face-to-face ceremony, but they seemed to enjoy listening to the explanations, as if their tension had eased after seeing how they were doing.
The 2nd and 3rd graders were preparing to show their cool appearance to the new 1st graders.
It seemed that there were more smiles and excitement than usual high school life.
I would like to do my best to manage events so that my high school life will be more enjoyable in the future.

"Where Crawfish Cry"
Delia Owens: Written by Jun Tomohiro: Translated (Hayakawa Shobo)
In the swamps of North Carolina, the corpse of a young man was found, and the suspected culprit was Kaiya, the "swamp girl".
She was abandoned by her parents when she was six years old and has survived alone in a shack in the swamp.
The encounter between Kaia and a kind-hearted young man will change her destiny greatly.
The growth of a girl living in nature and a suspicious death are intertwined, and an unexpected ending awaits.
The story is made more interesting by the depictions of the wetlands and flora and fauna from the author's point of view, who is also a zoologist.
It is a work that was made into a movie in 2022.

Production and sales of snow globes
Launched "Niseko Globe Factory" last year,
Started a business to manufacture and sell gloves for skiing and snowboarding.
Since the end of last year, we have been working mainly on making prototypes, and we had many people, including people in the town, test them.
We are currently making improvements based on the test results, and plan to start general sales around July this year.
Now, to introduce some of the features of the product, we use “Ezo deer leather” as the main material.
Pursuing the uniqueness of Hokkaido and social issues (utilization of Yezo deer that are disposed of for population control)
I hope it will help you to solve the problem.
In addition, the main business is order-made sales of “made-to-order products” that meet various needs.
For details, please see various SNS of "Niseko Globe Factory"! HP is currently under construction.

Introduction of my assignment
18. Niseko Children's Center
3rd year Arisa Fukuda (from Iwamizawa)

Two years with the children and two years have passed since I was assigned to Niseko Children's Center.
In the first year, I was very confused because I didn't know what to do.
However, in the second year, the number of children asking me to play with them more often than in the beginning, or to say that they would like to play something like this, has increased.
I am inspired by the children every day, and I enjoy working while admiring that there are other ways to play.
This year will be my third year. I think it would be nice if I could enjoy interacting with children while trying not to forget my original feelings!

Activity Report

First held! snow education event
The members of the cooperation team planned for the first time "WE ARE NATURE! Let's play with snow and ice ♪" with the desire to learn about Niseko's indispensable snow and get familiar with it, and held it on February 25th. bottom.
The ice and snow artist "THE ICEMANS", who is mainly active in Niseko, was invited as a guest, and was held on the premises of "Mirakutsu Yukiya", a shop of the JOCV OB. About 50 people participated.
At this event, various programs were held while observing the characteristics of snow and ice under the guidance of "THE ICEMANS".
Volunteers were invited in advance to build the ice dome, and snow clumps were brought in to make chairs and objects were made around it.
In addition, everyone enjoyed playing in the snow, digging kamakura and tunnels using the snow walls, and walking over the tunnels to see how much they collapsed.
While it is said that the opportunities to play in the snow itself are decreasing, I am happy to create a place where people can purely enjoy playing in the snow.

I interacted with high school students

Sun

Second-year students from Niseko High School came to Ohisama and interacted with children, parents, and expectant and nursing mothers.
There were many questions from high school students, such as "What are the difficulties in raising children?", "Have you had any difficulties during childbirth?" He politely answered.
I think we also understood how parents think about their children, saying, "I grew up being loved by my parents."

Lawyer Sato's Life Concerns
We will solve it!

●This month's theme
“A system for dealing with land with unknown owners has been established.”
This spring's revision of the law created a management system for land and buildings whose owners are unknown or poorly managed.
Specifically, with respect to real estate whose owner is unknown, a person with an interest can petition the court to appoint an administrator for such real estate.
For example, if you want to acquire an adjacent land to connect to a public road because your own land is inconvenient because it does not touch the public road, until now, you had to conclude a sales contract with the adjacent land owner. It was a principle.
In this case, a sales contract cannot be concluded without knowing who the adjacent land owner is.
It remains to be seen how much this system can be used, but in the future it will be possible for a manager appointed by the court to sell the property to the owner of the adjacent land with the permission of the court. Become.
In addition, under the newly established management system for real estate that is not managed properly, if the owner is not managing it properly and is causing trouble to the owner of the adjacent land, the court will also file a petition to appoint a manager. It is a system that allows you to
For example, you will be able to ask the manager to repair the crumbling wall, remove garbage, and exterminate pests. Spring is full of law revisions, so if you have the opportunity, we will introduce them one by one.

Track! vol.28
Activities of a town development company!
We held the last snow play event of the winter season!
On March 18th, we held the last snow play event of the winter season at Niseko Mirai! At the snow play event in January, we enjoyed sledding, making kamakura, and making snowmen in the fluffy snow. As spring approached, the snow gradually turned into hardened snow, so I took advantage of the wide snowfields of Niseko Mirai and tried to create "snowfield art" that is not rice field art.
On the day of the event, we created a large frame for painting in the snowfield, and used improved soil to draw a picture on the snow surface. The challenge this time is Nicky, the character of the town! I started with the outline of the whole body and gradually worked on the details inside.
The children who brought colored water on the day colored Nikki using red and yellow colored water.
I was able to finish Nicky to a higher degree of perfection, and when I finally climbed to the top of the snowy mountain on the premises and looked at it, the participants cheered.
We will be holding various fun events again this year, so we hope you will be able to participate.

Hello
I'm the mayor
Radio Niseko, a radio that is not just listened to, celebrated its 11th anniversary this March.
The late Kumiko Kihara, the representative of Mt. Misumi Broadcasting Station in Sapporo at the time, devoted herself to the opening of the radio station.
Some people wondered, "Isn't radio outdated in this Internet society?"
Radio Niseko, which was born with the understanding of the townspeople, now plays a major role as a "town development, administrative and disaster prevention information transmission center" that is indispensable for Niseko Town, and as an important "community fostering institution".
I will.
We would like to thank the employees of Radio Niseko and the volunteers who support us for their efforts.
Niseko Town Kenya Katayama

[Increase immunity]
A month has passed since the start of the new fiscal year, but are you feeling tired?
If you continue to be stressed by an unfamiliar environment and lack of sleep, your immune system will weaken, making you more susceptible to viruses such as colds.
Also, if you are infected, the symptoms may become severe, so let's review your daily lifestyle and increase your immunity.
【point】
1 Eat a balanced diet
When preparing or choosing meals, combine staple foods (rice, bread, noodles, etc.), main dishes (meat, fish, eggs, soybean products, etc.), and side dishes (vegetables, seaweed, mushrooms, etc.). prize. You can get the nutrients your body needs in a well-balanced manner.
2 Let's prepare the intestinal environment
Most of the immune cells in the body are concentrated in the intestine, so it is very important to improve the intestinal environment in order to improve immunity.
In particular, fermented foods such as yogurt, natto, and kimchi are rich in good bacteria such as bifidobacteria and lactic acid bacteria, so it is important to increase their proportion. It is also important to take enough oligosaccharides and dietary fiber that increase the number of good bacteria.
3 Get enough sleep
For a good night's sleep, it is important not only the number of hours of sleep, but also the quality of sleep. Drinking before bed and drinks containing caffeine such as coffee and tea have a stimulating effect, so sensitive people should avoid them 5 to 6 hours before bedtime.

When I was in high school, I had a vague admiration for a cameraman who came to my school for coverage.
It was my secret pleasure to read the monthly public relations magazine.
I want to work in public relations someday from the beginning when I entered the town hall! For me, who thought that, now I feel happy that I am making a public relations magazine like this.
The other day, I was interviewed for the entrance ceremony of Niseko High School.
It's been a long time since I've talked to the professors who took care of me, and I thought that being able to interact with the people I met at the interview site was one of the appeals of public relations work.
Every day I struggle with the difficulty of the camera and the difficulty of assembling the layout, but I will do my best to accumulate experience and create a worthwhile PR. (fruit)
