Roof Thatchers are skilled workers that build roofs of traditional houses, temples and shrines in Japan. They use plants that supported the life in rural districts like manure or fodder (straw) for the animals. But modernization is making thatching obsolete and has been rapidly disappearing. The art of roof thatching is a local resource and helps assist with village revitalization and community development. The roofs have heat-insulating properties and air-permeability that are sustainable, recyclable plant resource that can be used instead of petroleum. Currently there are 100.000 thatched buildings in Japan and around 300 thatchers. Thatchers use rice straw, wheat straw ,bamboo grass and cedar bark as thatching materials.
