Kokui Farm We strive every day to produce safe, high-quality crops, and are particular about "delicious" food.

Healthy crops grown like our own children are unique.

Domestically produced soybeans are a precious crop, accounting for less than 5% of the total.

What's more, we offer tofu, natto, miso, and other items made exclusively with soybeans grown in Okui!

They sell it. My kids love it too. Please try the tofu and natto.

Acorn Village InabuSan... Inanabu roadside station.

Mineasahi rice is said to be a mythical variety. Mineasahi rice and its rice flour are only available in Inabu, the birthplace of Mineasahi.

They also sell chaberin dango (sweet rice dumplings) at the request of local residents.

Actually, Mr. Inabu from Acorn Village,

In order to protect the rice landscape of Inabu, we are working hard to take on Inabu's Mineasahi rice from farmers.

As abandoned farmland became a problem, we wanted to do something to help, and that's why we created Chaberin Dango.

Tea dumplings made with Inabu Mineasahi and Takakoen teas and natural water pumped up from underground.

Please take this opportunity.

(The exhibit will represent Inabu's feelings for the farmland.)

 

 

Forest SquareMr./Ms....is working to spread awareness of the importance of forest creation in Toyota City.

 

You can paint on the cedar trees of Toyota. Amazing.

Draw your thoughts on this board, which has a gentle wood scent that will make you feel at ease.

Crayons will be provided, but you are welcome to bring your own.

Both children and adults are welcome to participate, and you can take home your finished work.

You can also experience the Peruvian instrument "Cajon" made from Toyota wood.

 

...There will also be live music starting at 11am.

 

Dashenka NaMr. Miss···A shop selling handmade bread made with natural yeast and baked in a stone oven

 

In fact, everyone at Dashenka's shop is a baker.

The way they carefully sell their homemade bread conveys the feelings of the makers.

I've seen people making their own yeast,

Seasonal fruits scrunched by hand...

It must be delicious... or so I thought.

 

 

Neighboring CitySan... is a group of shops and artists active in Toyota City.

 

This time, you will see an antique shop.

...Due to circumstances, the delicatessen owner will be unable to attend. We apologize to those who were looking forward to it.

 

and,

Takakoen ...In pursuit of delicious tea, we are particular about everything from soil preparation using organic fertilizer to cultivation.

We only sell tea that we are satisfied with.

 

This time, we were thinking of canceling the cafe in the cafe space...

We received word from our neighbors that they would be happy to help.

I'm grateful. I'll do my best with the help of my neighbors.

Last time, we received feedback that people wanted to buy tea, so we will be selling that as well.

 

We also have limited edition sets available on the day, as well as this month's "Trial Team."

We also have local vegetables. This time, a fishmonger will also be there. Fish will be sold in the parking lot on the south side of Hidamari.
