Hello Dear Subscriber

I hope this email finds you well.

Since we received good feedback and signs of interest following our interview with Higa Farm, we have decided to collaborate with Masamichi and Sara Higa to offer you a new kind of experience: online farming!

From now on, Kokoro Media will be renting a small parcel of land at Higa Farm to grow vegetables. We would like to involve you, our readers, in the farming process and get your opinions and ideas via polls. From planting the seeds to cooking the vegetables, you can ask questions and discover what life is like on a Japanese organic farm.

This time, we would like to involve you in choosing what we are going to grow for the next few months. Higa Farm will be planting the seeds for us during May, so please vote before May 13th! Our final selection will depend on your votes, the space available on the land, and other growing factors.

Cheers,

Amélie, chief editor of Kokoro Media
