There will also be many food trucks and tent vendors. At the end of the stage program,
a big raffle will award popular game consoles, sought-after smartwatches, and specialty products from the local area, sister city Itoman City, and friendship city Saromacho.

Green Woodwork
A workshop used freshly cut, still-damp “green wood” to make everyday items.

Participants used only simple tools like knives and shaving horses.

For middle school students and older
they offered sessions to make wooden spatulas, mini spoons, and small plates.

Elementary school children could also join
a session to make house ornaments.

Under the instruction of Mariko Kusakari,
four classes were held in total.

I peeked into the house ornament session.

The elementary children cut and shaved the wood themselves
with support from parents and staff.

They touched the wood’s end grain to confirm it was still damp
and noticed that different species gave off different scents.

Handing tools to children can be nerve‑wracking,
but adults stepped in when needed and otherwise watched as the kids did the work.

Pieces that started round gradually took on angular, almost pentagonal shapes.

After cutting each piece to a chosen size,
participants painted them and added a string or wire to finish the ornament.

The display included a variety of shapes and colors, each full of personality.

We live in a world where many things are easy to buy,
so having the chance to make everyday items yourself is truly rewarding.

I think I’ll join the wooden spatula workshop next time.

【Sparkling Korakuen, Tea Party at Night】
Thursday, October 23 and Friday, October 24

In Korakuen, where the maples are colored red
Light up and Tea ceremony were held.

There is a Tea Room called Korakutei in the park and
Several times a month, it is used for Tea lessons and Tea Parties for children.

But even if you live in a village
Those who have never set foot in Korakutei,
There are many people who only looked at the garden of Korakuen from the outside.

Some people take a walk on a daily basis
Even for those who don't,
It was two days that gave me the opportunity to visit Korakuen.

There are almost no lights in the park.
Lights installed along the walking path
It shimmers in the darkness.

It was a night of light rain.

With a gentle sweet Traditional Japanese straw raincoat Tea confectionery
Tea with a warm and deep Traditional Japanese straw raincoat permeated my body.

Even if I don't know how to make Tea
The sophisticated and relaxing atmosphere of the Tea Room
I was healed and visited many times.

(Tea was OK 🧉 to refill)

Even in bad weather
Many people came,
Thank you very much.

Many people gathered in search of bargains, and a lively circle of exchange was expanding 👚
I saw 👀 many children with stuffed animals that were bigger than me

And the variety of stages was wonderful, and performances that could be enjoyed by men and women of all ages unfolded, and the entire venue was united in Excitement 🔥

At this Fukushi Festival, through the exhibition of welfare activities and the Bazaar, you can 🥰 feel the connection between Nature and the spirit of "mutual help"
It was 👏 a place where everyone, from children to the elderly, including the staff involved in the operation, local residents, and student volunteers, could play a leading role

The Fukushi Festival is a truly wonderful Event where you can feel that the circle of kindness of Gokase will expand into tomorrow and into the future.
I would like to ✨ join this warm circle again next year
