-=====About Ainu Orchards=====+{{:places:ainu_orchard_gen_1.png?200|Ainu Orchards}}{{:places:ainu_orchard_gen_2.png?200|Ainu Orchards}}{{:places:ainu_orchard_gen_3.png?200|Ainu Orchards}} 
 +=====History and Background=====
  
-The extensive rural property just outside of the [[places:tokyo]] city limits was on a list of abandoned properties. The owners had been killed during the [[faction:mishhuvurthyar:nmx]] invasion of [[timeline:ye_33]] with no listed heirs or continuity for the propertyDuring a casual outing in late [[timeline:ye_41]], [[characters:yamatai:motoyoshi_igarashi_yuka]] brought the property to the attention of [[characters:yamatai:ketsurui-motoyoshi_katsuko]], who then purchased itThe purchase was finalized in early [[timeline:ye_42]].+Ainu Orchards was founded in [[timeline:ye_30]] and was operated by the Ainu Family until its buildings were destroyed by the [[species:mishhuvurthyar|]] in [[timeline:ye_32]]. It is unclear what happened to the Ainu Family, so the estate remained abandoned until [[timeline:ye_41]]. On a casual outing, [[characters:yamatai:motoyoshi_igarashi_yuka|]] brought the property to the attention of [[characters:yamatai:ketsurui-motoyoshi_katsuko|]]. [[characters:yamatai:ketsurui-motoyoshi_katsuko|]] saw the benefit of a small family-owned orchard, winery and the lack of development around the estate meant it could be easily expanded as time went on, she then purchased the property
  
 +The initial cleanup and rebuilding was done by the [[corp:yugumo_corporation:start|]] and the [[corp:yugumo_corporation:juugoya_cooperative|]]. The [[corp:yugumo_corporation:juugoya_cooperative|]] helped restore the orchards and worked the land up until [[timeline:ye_42]] when they were asked to leave on account of the questionable connections of their previous owner. [[corp:yugumo_corporation:komorebi_foods|]], the successor to the [[corp:yugumo_corporation:juugoya_cooperative|]] took over later that same year. 
  
-=====A Working Orchard=====+In [[timeline:ye_44]], the property was expanded and renovated at the request of [[characters:yamatai:ketsurui-motoyoshi_katsuko|]].
  
-The Ainu Orchard is operated as a working orchard, which contributes to food production in the [[faction:yamatai_star_empire]].+=====Description=====
  
-{{places:ainu_orchards_2.jpeg?400|Oil Painting of Ainu Orchards PropertyYE 42}}+As of [[timeline:ye_44]], the estate sits on two square kilometers of landabout a kilometer squared of that is cleared and productive. There are several managed orchards, crop fields, and a recently expanded vineyard which are worked by a modest group of workers from [[corp:yugumo_corporation:komorebi_foods|]]. Housing for both the hired hands and the [[faction:yamatai:motoyoshi_clan:start|]] is provided on the property. 
  
-====Main Operations====+Although the estate is private property, several fruit stands and other market-style stalls have been placed next to the major road access to Ainu Orchards. Public events such as tours or small festivals happen occasionally and are generally invite-only. 
  
-{{:corp:juugoya_logo.png?200  |}}The orchards are operated on contract, as of [[timeline:ye_42]], by the [[corp:yugumo_corporation:juugoya_cooperative]]. Seasonal produce is shipped across the [[faction:yamatai_star_empire]]. The orchard produces:

The employee population tends to remain fairly constant as employees enjoy benefits such as higher-than-market wages, on-site free housing, and meals.

 +=====Notable Residences===== 
 + 
 +In [[timeline:ye_42]], the original residences were [[stararmy:buildings:cabin_type_39|Star Army Cabins]]. In [[timeline:ye_44]], those cabins were turned into employee residences. New traditional-styled [[faction:yamatai:yamataian|]] designed homes were then constructed. A main estate home was also constructed that same year. 
 + 
 +====Main Residence==== 
 + 
 +The main residence was built in [[timeline:ye_44]], it was designed in a traditional [[faction:yamatai:yamataian|]] style featuring [[wp>Shoji]] walls and   [[:planet:jiyuu_iii:flora#toft_bamboo|toft bamboo]] floors and features. It serves as a rural residence for [[characters:yamatai:ketsurui-motoyoshi_katsuko|]], [[characters:yamatai:shimizu-motoyoshi_akina|]] and their other partners, [[characters:yamatai:motoyoshi_eri|]] and [[characters:yamatai:kage_yaichiro|]]. Visitors outside of the [[faction:yamatai:motoyoshi_clan:start|]] are rarely visitors to this estate home, and it is protected by the [[corp:yugumo_corporation:yugumo_keisatsu#motoyoshi_keibi|Motoyoshi Keibi]]. 
 + 
 +{{  :places:ainu_main_estate_home.png?300  |Main Residence}}

 +====Clan Housing==== 
 + 
 +{{:places:ainu_mc_homes.png?300  |Motoyoshi Clan Homes}} Small cottages in traditional [[faction:yamatai:yamataian|]] style have been provided for all members of the [[faction:yamatai:motoyoshi_clan:start|]] for their use while they are on the estate. They are welcoming humble well-maintained rural cabin-like homes that are generally used only by the members of the clan or to entertain some of their more closely-knit friends. Each cottage is designed to custom for the [[faction:yamatai:motoyoshi_clan:start|]] member who it is given to.  
 + 
 +In general, the orchard estate is seen as a place to get away from the trials of duty and politics. Outside the matters of fruit, wine, and beer, it is encouraged to keep business off the property.  
 + 
 +Custom Cottages: 
 +  Soon to Come. 
 +  *  
 +====Employee Housing==== 
 + 
 +The original [[stararmy:buildings:cabin_type_39|Star Army Cabins]] have been converted into staff residences. Some of the higher-ranking employees such as supervisors or managers for [[corp:yugumo_corporation:komorebi_foods|]] have their own cabin, while others have bunk facilities to house multiple employees. 
 + 
 +===== The Employee Market ===== 
 + 
 +{{:places:employee_market_ainu.png?200  |Orchard Workers}}The Employee Market is a market stall on the orchard estate that is for employees and residents only. It is a place where they can purchase goods produced on the estate as well as other required goods at a discounted price. It has a catalog link via [[corp:yugumo_corporation:systems:kaimon|]] to allow employees to purchase products produced by [[corp:yugumo_corporation:start|]] and its other [[faction:yamatai:yamataian|]] business partners.  
 + 
 +A small food service area is part of the stall which allows workers to purchase food during their breaks. The selection varies with the seasons and often features produce grown on the estate.  
 + 
 +Members of the [[faction:yamatai:motoyoshi_clan:start|]] frequently show up at the stall to grab a snack or something else.  
 + 
 +=====The Dining Hall===== 
 +An on-property dining hall is provided for employee meals. 
 + 
 +{{:places:ainu_dininghall.png?300  |Ainu Dining Hall}}{{:places:ainu_dininghall_interior.png?300  |Ainu Dining Hall Interior}} 
 + 
 +The Dining Hall is a popular spot for workers to eat and socialize. All the food and drink are included in their contract with [[corp:yugumo_corporation:komorebi_foods|]], three meals a day. The food featured varies on a daily basis but tends to fit the [[places:motoyoshi_colonial_sector:culture#cuisine_and_food|local cuisine]]. Occasionally chefs from [[corp:yugumo_corporation:takeda_house|]] are brought in by the [[faction:yamatai:motoyoshi_clan:start|]] or [[corp:yugumo_corporation:komorebi_foods|]] for special occasions or events to celebrate employee accomplishments.  
 + 
 +[[characters:yamatai:ieyasu_taro|]] and his sons [[characters:yamatai:motoyoshi_tetsuya|]] and [[characters:yamatai:motoyoshi_kenpachi|]] have a liking for the simple homecooked food and often visit while they are on the estate. 
 + 
 +=====Transportation===== 
 + 
 +The Ainu Orchard Estate can be accessed by road from [[places:tokyo|]]. [[corp:yugumo_corporation:komorebi_foods|]] runs a bus shuttle service from the city to the estate as needed. 
 + 
 +=====People===== 
 + 
 +{{characters:2022:ainu_workers_2.png?200  |Orchard Workers}}The members of the [[faction:yamatai:motoyoshi_clan:start|]] are occasionally residence here, employees of the [[corp:yugumo_corporation:start|]] and [[corp:yugumo_corporation:komorebi_foods|]] live and work here as well. The employee population depends on the time of year and scale of the harvest varying from 200 to 300 employees.  
 + 
 +The orchard estate is a peaceful place and provides a great getaway for the few who have access to its beautiful landscapes and amenities. For those who work here, it is home and is one of the best rural experiences on [[planet:jiyuu_iii|]]. It is easy to forget that [[places:tokyo|]] is less than a twenty-minute drive away.
