June 22nd Exhibitors,

Chitty Chitty Bagel...A bagel specialty store made with domestic wheat and homemade yeast

A bakery in Anjo that specializes in bagels.

Chewy bagels with chicken, kinpira, etc.

It goes perfectly with a bagel sandwich.

It's more filling than it looks, so it's recommended for lunch.

Get it before it sells out.

Kondo Shiitake Garden Shimoyama Shiitake Farm is a traditional mushroom farm that grows shiitake mushrooms on logs.

Shiitake mushrooms grown on logs are delicious, as expected.

This time, it's unclear whether logs will be available for harvesting due to the season.

There are many customers who are looking forward to it,

I'm glad it's growing.

Kokui FarmWe strive every day to produce safe, high-quality produce, and are particular about "delicious."

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, soy milk, and more made exclusively with soybeans grown in Okui!

They will sell it to you.

It's the season when hot pot is delicious.

How about a soy milk hotpot?

Dashenka Na　San...a shop that sells handmade bread made with natural yeast and baked in a stone oven

Dashenka brings a variety of different items every time.

Ofukuichi is a hidden gem, with exclusive breads and new products available.

I wonder if the dried sardine bread (filled with dried sardines, cheese, walnuts, etc.) from the bread market the other day will also be available.

Every time, we introduce special bread deals that you can't miss out on.

I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of bread will be available this time.

Antenna Shop Kirari ...at a welfare facility in Toyota City for people with disabilities.

We handle manufactured products.

A variety of handmade foods, sweets, and miscellaneous goods made with quality ingredients and with love.

Among them, a large selection will be gathered.

FishmongerThey bring you fresh fish.

In fact, it can be quite difficult to buy fish at Takakaen.

Even if the owner buys products labeled as wild, they won't eat them because "they smell like farmed feed."

When I was worried because I couldn't tell just by looking at it, a neighbor introduced me to

This fish shop.

My neighbors came from Sendai and had a hard time trying the fish here.

Apparently they met and were introduced to this fishmonger.

Since then, it has become easier for me to choose fish.

It is sold by a slightly shy person.

Handmade goods "Maruru" - a shop selling handmade fabric accessories

Lunch sets, placemats, masks, etc. for kindergartens and elementary schools

There are so many different things.

She is a mother who lives in the local Wakazono area, so if you are planning to enroll next year, please feel free to ask her any questions you may have.

I'm sure they'll answer your questions.

Cedar tree　San...A reflexology massage shop in the Yoshiwara area.

You enter through the garden and receive a massage in a slightly secluded space.

A trial price only available at Ofukuichi.

The massage is gentle so that your screams don't reach Ofukuichi.

Please give it a try.

andTakakoen ... All types of tea, including hand-picked matcha and hand-picked deep-steamed tea

In pursuit of delicious tea, we are particular about soil preparation using organic fertilizer.

We only sell tea that the owner is satisfied with.

This time, you will be able to try our popular "Brown Rice Tea with Matcha."

We will also be selling our popular "Hand-picked Matcha Baked Goods" in limited quantities.

Fish will be sold in the parking lot on the south side of Hidamari.

The cafe menu available only on the day is
