It looks like local vegetables and more are available at good prices at “The Greengrocer at Sakura Shukugawa Station”, held every Tuesday at JR Sakura Shukugawa Station～.

Here it is↓
There are two more dates: Tuesday, September 20 and Tuesday, September 27～!
Business hours are 15:30–19:30.
They sell safe, delicious, freshly picked morning vegetables grown locally in places like Nishinomiya, Kobe, and Sanda.
It says “kabura turnips,” “komatsuna,” and “eggplant” are from Nishinomiya! There may be others too～.
And surprisingly, Shine Muscat grapes are being sold for 800 yen. It seems they’re limited to 100 packs, but that’s a very good price!
They also have things like umeboshi and curry lined up～. Looks interesting!!

Lastly
It’s nice to be able to buy freshly picked morning vegetables in such a familiar, convenient place～♪ If you live nearby or use Sakura Shukugawa Station, please stop by and take a look. They’re open until 19:30, so you can even drop in on your way home from work 🙆 I’m a little worried about Tuesday the 20th depending on the typhoon, but I hope they’ll be able to set up～!
