Ogawa: the Prototyping Town
Residents of the small town of Ogawa are redefining how we live, work, and create.
In the rural Japanese town of Ogawa, we meet Takehiko Yanase, who shares his perspective on the potential for collaborative revitalization in the town. On a tour of local organic farms and workshops, he introduces us to some of the characters setting down new roots and redefining life in this budding community.
