Experience harvesting "Dejima," a rare potato that is hardly ever found in the market.
"Dejima" is a rare variety that is difficult to obtain even locally due to the effort required to cultivate it and its low yield.
The experience of digging things up with your own hands while smelling the scent of the soil in the field is truly special.
