Hokkaido and Trustbank have released a special feature content on “Furusato Choice” featuring popular thank-you gifts and hidden gems from each municipality.
The town of Pibu, home of Yumepirika, is offering the fruit mini-tomato “Gerba,” which won the 2023 Vegetable Sommelier Summit Gold Award. Donations start at 14,000 yen and will be shipped from mid-July 2024 as soon as they are harvested.
Kodaira Town is surrounded by the Sea of Japan and mountains on three sides. The “Kodaira Beef Handmade Hamburger Steak,” a return gift, is made from 100% Kodaira-raised Japanese black beef. Donation amounts start at 10,000 yen.
Nakagawa Town’s “pure honey,” a return gift, is collected from the plants and broadleaf forests of its rich forests, and is natural, unprocessed honey. The town has no rice paddies, and the honey is collected in the Itaya area of the forest, so there is no need to worry about neonicotinoid pesticides. Donations start at 20,000 yen.
Hatsuyamabetsu Village, which is mainly engaged in agriculture and fisheries, returns the head of an octopus grown in the rough seas of the Sea of Japan as a delicacy. The octopus, which is made using a unique method and kneaded to make it easy to eat, is said to have a delicious flavor that spreads in the mouth as one chews. Donation amounts start at 15,000 yen.
Makari Village is a purely agricultural village where agriculture is the main industry. The lilies are grown in the abundant water from Mt. Yotei, and each piece of the lily bulb is tightly stacked one on top of the other. Donations start at 20,000 yen.
