Large reservoir project underway at the Sacred Ground of Soil At the Sacred Ground of Soil, the unique Nature Farming method revealed by Masaaki-sama—Christ Farming (Masaaki-sama Farming)—is being actively promoted. In February, 847 members came to the sacred ground to take part in dedicatory work. Due to insufficient rainfall, activities at the sacred ground focused on cleaning, land clearing, grass cutting, and excavating a rainwater storage reservoir. At the same time, preparation of the soil was carried out so that crop planting could begin immediately once the rain arrived. Recently, permission was granted to install a main gate at the entrance to the sacred ground. Two gate panels, each 3 meters wide and 2.5 meters high, have been purchased, and preparations for installation are underway. In February, the total harvest was 8 kg of green peppers, 11 kg of onions, 14 kg of jindungo (a type of red chili pepper), and 7 kg of papaya.
