Weekly Field Cleanup Initiative
At PiPi, we conduct a “field cleanup” once a week on each island to protect the fields used for our tours.
Today, the entire staff got together again to clean up.
We will continue to collect washed-up trash, branches, leaves, and other debris to create an environment where future visitors can enjoy themselves comfortably.
