Built in Tokyo. Trusted Across Japan.
Permaculture Farming Plot was founded with one purpose: making reliable information accessible to everyone who needs it.
Our mission, our team, and the values that guide everything we publish.
Our Mission
Too often, people navigating life in Japan — whether as newcomers, residents, or professionals — face confusing, fragmented, or inaccessible information. Official sources can be difficult to interpret. Online resources may be outdated or culturally misaligned.
Permaculture Farming Plot was created to fill that gap. We research, write, and maintain guides that are accurate, clearly structured, and genuinely useful — guides that respect the reader's time and intelligence.
Our goal is not simply to inform, but to build confidence. When you finish reading a Permaculture Farming Plot, you should feel ready to take the next step.
Our Story
Permaculture Farming Plot Co., Ltd. was incorporated in 2021 by a small team of writers, researchers, and educators who had each spent years helping people navigate life in Japan. What began as a personal blog sharing practical tips quickly grew into a structured platform.
Today, our editorial team publishes new guides every week, covering everything from applying for a residence card to understanding Japanese workplace culture. Every guide follows a consistent structure — built for clarity and ease of use, not for search engine rankings alone.
We are proud to remain an independent, Tokyo-based company with a deep commitment to the communities we serve.

Legal, medical, and financial guides are verified by qualified specialists before publication.

Our Values
Three principles guide every decision we make at Permaculture Farming Plot.
We verify every claim against authoritative sources. When information is uncertain or changes frequently, we say so clearly. Readers trust us, and we take that responsibility seriously.
Our guides are written for people of all backgrounds — not just specialists or insiders. We use plain language, clear structure, and practical examples so that anyone can understand and apply what they learn.
We publish because people need help, not because algorithms reward volume. Reader feedback shapes our content priorities, and we strive to serve the communities that depend on our guides.
