Foreign Volunteers Japan – Volunteering in Iwanuma

Submitted by RIJS on
Item Description
MAY 15, 2011 Much of the work clearing mud from homes is finished in Iwanuma, but people still need help clearing their fields and gardens. The 2 cm crust of sludge must be removed with shovels and wheelbarrows and piled near the road so that it can be trucked away. Even after the sludge is gone, it will take several seasons for the rain to flush out enough salt from the soil for crops to be grown.
