Hiromitsu Iio | Organic Farmer

Born in Tsushima, Aichi, in 1975, he grew up witnessing the evolution of organic farming and the natural food movement as the second-generation president of Rinnesha, an organic foods and natural goods company, and became fascinated with the agriculture, food, and lifestyle of the mountainous community. In 2006, he founded an organic cafe, and in 2008, he established a circular-based farm in Takinoue town, Hokkaido, where visitors can learn about multifunctional agriculture. He has expanded his agribusiness to two locations in Aichi and Hokkaido. Based on the belief that “agricultural efforts are the origin and foundation of life,” he and his wife founded “Kurashi no Asaichi” in 2011, aiming to practice regional circular agriculture and foster market development. Since 2014, he has been running an experiential farm near an urban area, and in 2020, he founded the agricultural corporation Minpata Project, which operates both domestically and internationally.
