Naturally grown taro from Ueno, Kumamoto Prefecture
Naturally grown taro is grown without any fertilizer, using only seeds, soil, sunshine and rain, giving it a sticky texture and a natural sweetness.
Harvesting begins early in the morning, with the taro being dug up by hand, the bushy roots removed one by one, and the potatoes then dried and shipped.
Please enjoy it in simmered dishes, miso soup, and stir-fried dishes.
Ueno has been committed to natural farming since he started farming
Seven years have passed since he started farming, and Masuhisa Ueno, a natural farmer, has become an indispensable part of Purely.
He encountered Purely when he first began farming and has been farming using natural farming methods from the very beginning.
At first, the crops did not grow well and there were even reports of total destruction.
"At first, I didn't know anything about natural farming, so I just copied what I saw. But it didn't work at all. When I started growing onions here, almost all of them died after about two years."
Although Ueno can now laugh about his failures, he says that it was extremely difficult at the beginning.
Nevertheless, he has managed to look at his failures in a positive way, and has proactively participated in lectures sponsored by Purely and training sessions organized by the National Natural Farming Promotion Association.
"Looking back, this failure taught me the importance of soil preparation," he says, and he has continued to make steady progress.
Now, among Purely's partner producers, they produce a wide variety of naturally grown vegetables, which is one of the best.
Most of the produce is produced from seeds we collect ourselves or purchased fixed varieties, and we are committed to natural cultivation from seeds.
"I want to make natural farming a normal part of agriculture. I believe I can do it, and I want to continue spreading the word by continuing to focus solely on natural farming."
Ueno is passionate about natural farming and works hard at it every day.
Please enjoy Ueno's naturally grown garlic sprouts, which are filled with his passion.
