TABIKURU-oo3
Autumn remote harvest festival!
Domestic "avocado" and domestically grown, pesticide-free, authentic "lemon"
Enjoy an indulgent harvesting experience!
Scheduled to be held on Sunday, October 25th
Autumn is the season for food! Come enjoy the autumn harvest festival with the remote travel "Tabi-Kuru"!
Avocados and lemons are native to warm climates
Did you know that these two fruits, which don't seem to have much in common, have similar growing conditions? It is said that 99% of avocados, also known as "forest butter," are imported, but in the southernmost part of Kumamoto Prefecture, in the warm climate of the Minamata-Ashikita region, domestic avocados can be grown, and domestic lemons are grown without the use of pesticides. Listen to the stories of producers and experience a remote harvest!
