今回皆さん峰の原のペンションや市内の旅館に泊まり、

We had harvest event two days in a row this weekend.
Not too many participants but mostly very keen pickers
this time. Two of them came from Kobe, and the others
were from Tokyo area. One of them got on the first Tsukuba Express
at 5am then Nagano Shinkansen bullet train. Thank you very much
for you coming all the way from the distance.
We picked Viognier on the first day followed by Merlot after lunch.
We prepared for lunch BBQ with oyaki, our local soul food, mushroom
Soup and apples and grapes.

We had very fine and calm weather for two days and I hoped they
had very very good and fun time.

On the second day, we had five people from Osaka area with the same
people from Tokyo as first day. Many cases of Merlot were picked. For
lunch, we had very simple dishes, Imoni, a traditional food from Tohoku
area with taro potato and beef. But we enjoyed, original soup taste, with
udon noodle and finally curry udon. Three tastes from one big pot.

All of them stayed either at pension guest houses in Minenohara or
inn inside the city. They enjoyed hot spring, shopping miso and fruit,
and especially the beautiful nature around us. Thank you very much
for your coming and for your big smiles that always make us happy.
