From today the veggie stand will be in front of J-Sekka again and filled with fresh organic produce straight of the land. These bi-couloured zucchini's will available too. It looks like they are dipped in some green paint, but it is the way they grow.

Corn is just some kind of grass and when it grows actually just looks like it too. Just when it flowers it becomes a bit more elitairian. Since it is the most widely grown crop in the world now and almost all processed foods contain some traces of corn, you can say humans have become grazers as well as we munch on corn day in day out. Niseko Green Farm will have the über sweet Mirai corn available this year both organically and chemically grown. Give them both a try for a comparisson test.

Niseko Green Farm organic asparagus are being served in J-Sekka's Spring salad with shrimp and creamy herb dressing. The J-Sekka Deli is open all summer and uses and sells all local and Hokkaido produce. Not only good for your taste buds, but also for the environment! http://www.j-sekka.com/

The green house is almost done. We had the plastic almost on top of the the whole structure when it got blown away by the wind. It was a bit of a mission to get it back on and left us with some cuts here and there. Now we got 525 m2 for some heat loving veggies.

Just born and still a bit dazed. Mother goat standing proud next to her young daughter.

Some careful first steps.

Putting all the pieces together.
