[About Bamboo Shoot Picking 2025 and Bamboo Cutting and Shredding Work]
Preparations are underway in the park this year to hold the bamboo shoot picking event again.
The day before yesterday, we carried out bamboo cutting and shredding work.
The cutting work involves thinning out old bamboo to expose the ground surface to sunlight. (Rising ground temperature is necessary for bamboo shoot growth.)
The cut bamboo has its branches and leaves removed and is fed into a shredder to make bamboo chips.
When spread on the ground, the bamboo chips become compost. This improves soil nutrition and helps produce tastier bamboo shoots.
Preparations are currently under way to hold this year’s bamboo shoot picking.
The event period is under consideration, but it is expected to run from around mid-April to early May.
Details will be posted on the Toyooka Tabi Jikan website by the Toyooka Village Tourism Association, so please check it for updates.

When it comes to pickles from Shinshu, nozawana is well known, but in southern Shinshu, gensuke kabuna pickles are cherished.
Gensuke kabuna becomes sweeter and more flavorful after exposure to frost.
As the cold grows harsher at this time of year, Toyooka Village has entered the ideal harvesting season for gensuke kabuna.
Toyooka Tabi Jikan offers hands-on harvesting experiences for gensuke kabuna.
We also provide pickling recipes.
For details about the experience, please visit the Toyooka Tabi Jikan website.
The program is scheduled to run from around November 25th to December 20th, ending once supplies run out.
