Vegetable, Produce, Grocery and Food Delivery Boxes Across Japan
CSA boxes (when available) are a God-send for inaka newbies for a few reasons:
- Access to organic produce can be limited in the countryside, as there are literally requirements to use chemicals by big-biz farm distributors.
- The variety at your small local store might be pretty limited. I have only seen kale for sale one time at the Sunday market in Kochi, but I know they grow it in Fukuoka. I digress…
- The freshness of produce at teeny-tiny neighborhood stores can be disappointing. Please continue to support your neighborhood shops, but a girl can only take grey bananas and lettuce “on the fringe” for so long.
Ordering produce from small, natural farmers makes all the difference.
Your patronage means natural farming can exist in Japan.
CSA Boxes Offer Some Additional Perks
Heirloom varieties, the freshest in-season choices, convenient delivery, and unique selections. CSA boxes often also include recipe recommendations. So what are you waiting for! Here are some of your CSA box options in Japan!
