September 12th. The fruitful autumn season has arrived in Suzu. 

It has been about five months since rice planting in May.
Although many things happened this year, we were able to safely reach harvest day. 
Beautifully ripened Koshihikari rice. 


We will continue to harvest.

I looked back on the days of trial and error, remembering sowing seeds, raising seedlings, mowing the grass, typhoons, outbreaks of disease, and all the other things that happened.
It's a little sad to see the rice ears we've been watching over disappear, but it also gives us a soft sense of accomplishment, like relief.
We hope that the rice, which has been lovingly grown with the support of many people's thoughts and hands, will help keep your skin healthy and vibrant.
How is it going this year?
We are looking forward to it too.
