Famnic Tour of the Kitazaki Sea and Farms on the Itoshima Peninsula! Earth Edition
"Circulation Farming (Zen Farming)" on the Itoshima Peninsula
Local producers will be happy to help you!
The Kitazaki district of the Itoshima Peninsula, facing Hakata Bay and the Genkai Sea, is a treasure trove of rich nature and ingredients!
Did you know that agriculture and fishing are thriving in this area, even though it is located near the city of Fukuoka?
In the midst of all this, with the strong desire to preserve the local way of life without letting the fields go to waste, we are working on agriculture that keeps the soil healthy by making compost in a circular way without using pesticides or chemical fertilizers, together with the members of the "Kitazaki Future Creation Association".
Enjoy delicious vegetables grown in the fields!
This time, we will be experiencing peanut harvesting! Let's eat freshly picked peanuts! !
