Matsudai Tanada Bank : Harvest 2018

Summary

As the small rice seedlings planted in May start to turn golden, Matsudai Tanada Bank is pleased to invite to this year’s autumn harvest all Tanada Bank owners as well as anyone who wishes to join in on this exciting activity, an opportunity to harvest the rice you yourself planted and nurtured. In addition to harvesting the rice, participants will learn “hasegake” from the local farmers, a distinctive way to dry rice in the region. A wonderful day spent working with the local community: we look forward to seeing you there.
