Haskap hunting In the idyllic countryside surrounded by nature, there is a haskap field with dark purple berries that bear fruit like bells. Bibai City is the production area of "haskap", which boasts the highest harvest in Japan, and you can enjoy haskap picking experience at many farms in the city during the season of June ~ July. Haskap, which is famous as a healthy fruit, contains a lot of vitamins, calcium, iron, etc., and is said to be effective in preventing anemia, sensitivity to cold, eye strain, as well as spots and freckles, and was once prized as a "fruit of immortality and longevity" in Ainu culture. Haskap, a precious fruit grown only in a limited area of Hokkaido, is also called the "phantom fruit" or "pearl of the north." The haskap hunting experience is held for about one month from the end of June every year.

I pickled my yuzu, red turnips, and frozen persimmons. It is the autumn food itself. My body is happy.

Yuzu is in season, but do you know the demon yuzu, also known as lion yuzu? It bears the scary names of demons and lions, and is about 10 times the size of ordinary yuzu, 2~3 times the size of a grapefruit, and has a presence that is about the size of a small watermelon! When it is fruiting, it is said that it is so large that the branches bend.
