The rainy season entered Tohoku about 20 days earlier than last year.

The vegetables and flowers on the farm have become more vibrant with the recent rain.

Now is the best time to see the pansies and violas that were planted along the road, as well as the roses and peonies in the garden, as well as the Japanese mountain bushes on the grounds.

 We have received a variety of comments from customers using the tour bus, such as ``It's quite spacious'' and ``It must be difficult to manage.'' Landscape management is extremely difficult, but we work hard every day to ensure that our customers are happy.

 It will stop for about 10 minutes at a field of about 20,000 lavender trees, which also has a stop for tour buses. We have heard from customers that it looks like a purple carpet. There is also a passageway in the center of the field. There is also an observation deck where you can take commemorative photos from various angles. I think the best time to see them will be around the middle of this month.

 A 2-day lavender festival will be held on June 30th and July 1st. We are planning a variety of events, including the very popular Tonton Derby, and are looking forward to seeing you.
