A "harvesting experience" limited to 100 people, where you can dig up seasonal shallots with your own hands.
At this open-air market, you can enjoy the flavors of Hosoiri, featuring freshly picked vegetables, local specialties, game meat curry, and food trucks.
"Rakkyo," a specialty of the Hosoiri and Osawano districts, is in season in July.
At the popular annual "Rakkyo (Japanese Shallot) Harvesting Fair," you can visit the fields and enjoy the experience of digging up rakkyo with your own hands. Enjoying the taste of seasonal harvests while smelling the scent of the soil is a pleasure unique to this time of year.
