Narita, Japan. Family farm, 100 years organic, in the middle of a major international airport. Owner has been offered big money to leave; doesn't care. Heartwarming.

I am surprised that the land was not taken over by eminent domain.

The video didn't work for me though I know that is my computer, probably.

This was in Japan, not the US.

Different countries have different laws.

Before posting I ask Mr Google who said, that eminent domain exists in Japan under the Land Expropriation Law, though exception of projects like Narita Airport.

So maybe that is the Narita Airport.  Since I could not watch the video I don't know ...
