In this episode, we will learn how people live together in harmony with volcanoes. Meet locals who sow seeds in the land and feast on farm fresh foods they have harvested from Hokkaido's nutrient-rich land. We'll journey through south and central Hokkaido following stories from the past to the present of the evolution of this land. Through repeated eruptions of volcanoes, we'll wind our way through formations Mother Nature has carved while hiking, biking, and canoeing.
