It looks like Funasaka Satoyama School will be holding a “Potato Harvesting Experience.”

Applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis from Wednesday, May 17.
Parking is limited, so please use public transportation as much as possible.
Finally
A potato harvesting experience feels like the kind of event you might expect to find in Nishinomiya, but actually don’t see very often. You can take home the potatoes you harvest, so you could make curry, nikujaga, or even take the opportunity to try them as buttered potatoes, homemade fries, and more. It might be fun to try all kinds of potato dishes.
