Influence of soil and insect damage...! Failed this year... 😭 [Large long winter melon

Good evening, WE ARE THE FARM Meguro. 🧑‍🌾

This time, we will introduce you to the big long winter melon!

But,,

This year we were almost wiped out due to soil and insect damage...! 😭
A small amount of what can be picked could be served at the store!
Last year they were able to do such a large amount,
Even though harvesting was like hard muscle training,
This is how things can change in a year,
I feel that the difficulty of pesticide-free, fertilizer-free, and fixed seed production has become more apparent...! 🥺

Usually, winter melons are available every year at this time of the year!
When you hear the word "wax gourd," you may think of it as a winter vegetable,
Because it is a melon that can be picked at this time of year and stored through the winter.
It is said that the name was given to it!
The largest of these large winter melons weighs more than 10 kilograms,
It is quite difficult to carry and to eat at home,
It is no longer produced.
This is the time of year when summer vegetables are over and the variety of vegetables is decreasing,
It was a great success for both lunch and dinner, but,
Looking forward to next year! 😭
If we can get a few more in the store, we may offer a few in the course!

We look forward to serving you!
