Here is this week's lunch menu... ♪
Apparently the rainy season is coming early this year: ☔️
I am a little worried about the future of open-air vegetables, as they are easily affected by the weather.
When you grow more than 100 different vegetables each year, everything is rarely, if ever, perfect.
Some vegetables like rain and some don't, so it is natural that some do well and some don't, even in the same weather.
The farmer's skill is in how he can adjust and raise the tone of the crop (and that is the fun part),
I think there are a lot of things we can devise not only as vegetable growers but also as users.
For example, let's say you want to eat curry today,
Instead of going out to buy the usual carrots, onions, and potatoes, I try to make it with what I can find in the field.
Whether it is curried zucchini or green beans, it makes a delicious curry.
As a farmer, it is very important, though, to make products that meet the needs of the user,
As a user, you become weak and uninteresting when you get used to an environment where you always have what you need.
Making what you want to eat with what you have" is very inconsistent with stand-alone work efficiency, though,
I think there is a different kind of beauty when viewed as a whole.
We would like to create such lunches.
[About the sandwich in the photo.
The vegetables were so beautiful that I made sandwiches!
A limited number of sandwiches and vegetables will be sold at the Sakura City Museum of Art this weekend, June 3 and 4, in conjunction with the "Niwa no Wa" art and craft fair in Sakura, the farm's hometown.
We are worried about the weather, but if you have time, please come and visit us. 🧑🌾
