Blueberry Harvesting and Mochi-Making Experience: Nayoro City and Suginami Ward Children's Exchange Event with Delicious Strawberry Daifuku

Children from Nayoro City (Hokkaido) and Suginami Ward (Tokyo) participated in an exchange program featuring blueberry harvesting activities and traditional mochi-making experiences. The participants enjoyed hands-on learning about local agriculture and cultural traditions. A highlight of the event was the preparation and tasting of strawberry daifuku (mochi wrapped around sweet filling), allowing children to appreciate regional flavors. This cross-regional exchange promotes friendship and cultural understanding between communities in different parts of Japan.
