With the endangered species of Japanese purple grass (Murasaki), a symbol, the “Beautiful Town (Purple Town)” movement in which white, yellow, blue and purple flowers bloom. Friends (members) who are interested in cultivating purple roots and dyeing purple roots gather to assemble a greenhouse at the Hongo Satoyama Experience Farm, grow seasonal flower seedlings such as white, blue, and purple, and provide them to the flower beds in the town . Specifically, at the Hongo Daiichi housing complex Midorikai, Hongo Daini housing complex and Stanley Hills Neighborhood Association, Neighborhood Association will work on flower beds and greening. In detached houses, members plant flowers in containers and pots throughout the four seasons. The exposed parts of concrete and steel frames around the school are greened and maintained, covered with greenery, and members plant flower seedlings and maintain flower beds. At the Higashi Hongo's largest festival, "Higahongo Festival", we will hold a hands-on classroom for indigo dyeing and purple dyeing, and widely publicize the "Beautiful town (Purple Town)".
