ファーマーズマーケット
Sampling at the farmers market
Echinacea, native to eastern and central North America, does fine in a flowerpot on sunny Tokyo balcony
国連大学の前のファーマーズマーケットで、お店を出しているShokubutsu Freakの片山陽介さんから買ったエキナセアという植物は、北米からきました。東京の晴れたベランダにもきれい。この狭いベランダには、日本のアサガオや熱帯のバナナの木やオーリブの木があります。何でも試してみます。
I bought this flower from my friend Katayama Yosuke of Shokubutsu Freak at the UNU weekend farmers market. Its North American provenance mixes nicely with Japanese morning glory, tropical bananas, and an olive tree.
This tiny coffee trailer comes with its own mini-roaster
What fruit is in season in Japan’s winter? Fragrant yuzu.

Where the soup comes from. The weekend farmers market.
ここでスープの材料を毎週買います。一番好きな売店は味が美味しくて、並べ方もすてきです。
This fall I started going to the farmers market every week. Usually by bike, and sometimes meeting my friend Luis. This beautifully arranged stall is where I stop first to pick up turnips, carrots with their leaves still attached, green and red peppers, yuzu, lemons, celery, and sweet potatoes. At United Nations University farmers market, in Aoyama, which is open every Saturday and Sunday.
