[From Gokase junior high school! ] Dried shiitake mushrooms]
On Wednesday, November 6, I Visiting the site a class of second-year students at Gokase Junior 🍄 🟫✨ High School
The content was that the students sorted 🤗, bagged, and priced dried shiitake mushrooms
The shiitake mushrooms are managed as part of the classes at Gokase Junior High School, and the current third-year 👏 students selected and bagged what they grew last year
This year, due to the poor harvest, the quantity itself was smaller than every year, so it seemed 💦 difficult to sort out the good ones, but isn't this good for the students? I don't think this is good ... I was able 🤗 to enjoy sorting while consulting with each other
Weighing and bagging are also well-balanced and presentable, on the premise that they will be sold... I did it while thinking about it 🤔
After sealing it neatly with a vacuum packing machine, the students set 👏 their own prices while referring to the current market price.
Now, I actually sold 😳✨ it at that price at the specialty center Gokase
Finally, we learned about the management and precautions of Sakaki and deepened 😌✍️ our insight into Gokase's Specialty Products "Haraki Shiitake"
I hope ✨ that you will come into contact with the Specialty Products and culture of many Town from the time you are a student, and that you will connect it to the future
