The Tokyo Agri-Volunteer portal lists open farm volunteer shifts across metropolitan Tokyo.
What you can do in Tokyo
- Log in after free registration and reserve a half-day slot on the recruitment board (Tokyo Agri-Volunteer programme)
- Read each farm's task list (harvest, packing, greenhouse work) before you travel
- Bring lunch and water unless the host provides guidance on meals
How to join
Membership is free online. Choose a date and farm, then follow the confirmation message for meeting time and place.
When & where
Shifts run on host farm schedules across Tokyo wards; check the portal for the next open date near you. Meeting points vary per listing.
Why it matters in Tokyo
A booked shift turns curiosity about urban farms into shared work and shared harvest stories.
Good to know
- How long is a shift? Many listings use half-day blocks; the portal states hours per farm.
- Can I cancel? Follow the farm's rules on the booking confirmation; late cancellations burden small growers.
