The Wheat Field

The wheat field is turning into the paddy field.

Dear Tomato

As you know Mr. A has dropped out from this project way back before. Mr. Matsumura has been discriminating against you. I know you are suffering and crying. Oh, my dear Tomato Even if you ca

Weeding 草むしり

The Kegs 樽

The kegs are landmark of Matsumura Farm. They are containing leftover which will be used as a fertirizer later on. 樽は松村農園の目印です。 いつか肥料になる生ゴミをためています。

Remember the Smell このにおい覚えてます？

The brown stuff in the bags is fertilizer Matsumura farm is usung. It's made of one month leftovers at a restaurant. The smell is exactly the same as old time fertilizer:human wast. 袋の茶色

Still Small まだまだ小さい

The tomato plants in Matsumura Farm are about 2 inches. Mr. Matsumura says that he can't tell when he could harvest the tomatoes. I'm sure he will harvest sometime in this summer. 松村農園

Appreciation 感謝

What are Those? あれな～に？

They are ostrichs next to the Matumira Farm. I don't know why they are at the middle of Gumma. 松村農園の隣にいるダチョウです。 どうして群馬の真ん中にいるのか判りません。

Slow &Easy のんびり ゆっくり

Slow and easy is the way of Matsumura Farm. The veges grow slowly and naturaly. That's why they are so sweet, tender, and juicy. Easy, and slow down, Heidi, so that you can enjoy Japanese life.
