Collection: Creative Hunter Daru

Creative hunter Daru lives and works in Hamagurihama, a small fishing village in Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture, home to just three households. Despite its breathtaking natural beauty, this community grapples with challenges common to rural Japan, such as an aging population, wildlife-related damage, and its classification as a disaster caution zone.

In the face of these difficulties, Daru dedicates himself to a vital question: How can we sustain and preserve this land for future generations? Through tireless experimentation, he has crafted a business deeply rooted in his unique lifestyle, blending sustainability with personal values to breathe new life into this fading village.

Daru’s company, Yamano Megumi Co., Ltd., operates in Onagawa Town and Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture. It offers more than just products—it provides a connection to their origins. From hunting and supplying wild game meat and leather to crafting leather goods and processing pet food, Daru delivers a fully traceable, story-rich experience that brings customers closer to the land and the hands that sustain it.
