"Let's exchange" is a program started on July 11, 2017 with two purposes:
1. to introduce our livestock products: goat milk and cheese to local people; and
2. to take advantage of local custom, “barter with acquaintances” to develop a small market on an exchange basis, and not money in the local community.
Let’s join our social experiment!

1. Today’s Animal products were 12 Eggs laid during the last week
>>A relevant term based on season in Japanese is “Kan-Tamago. Kan-Tamago means
“eggs laid at the cold time.” Egg production naturally decreases with the onset of cold
weather, so eggs in the cold season used to be valuable and were considered lucky.
However, our chickens are producing very well. Probably they are an improved breed.
Today’s sweets were “Muffins of dried persimmon and walnut”
>>The muffins ingredients are goat milk, vegetable oil, sugar, honey, all purpose flour,
whole wheat flour, baking powder, dried persimmon we got, roasted walnuts. People
particularly enjoy the elegant sweetness of the dried persimmon.
Miki san’s “Homemade hot and salty citrus(Yuzu-Kosho), dried persimmon”
>>I enjoyed talking with Miki san at ENGAWA duty today. She made the hot and salty
citrus (yuzu plus green chili) for the first time and gave it to her friends. I know they loved
it. It displays a vivid green color. I matched the hot-salty citrus with boiled radish (daikon).
This has such a great, spicy flavor that I can’t stop eating it. I absolutely must plant green
chili this year.
I did not expect people to come in on such a cold day. But lots of friends dropped in and
ENGAWA was full with people. It’s a happy miscalculation !
Hamanami san dropped in by motorcycle. He helps a lot for preparing our radio
museum such as painting, cleaning, cutting bamboo around there. The radio museum
has advanced drastically because of his kind help.
Kato san dropped in after a trip to the dentist. He constructed a very funny “make-a-face
game” where you add face parts on a face, traditional game in Japan, for gathering in this
afternoon ! He also enjoys helping for our radio museum by plastering wall and coming
up with good ideas for decoration.
The Kawabata couple dropped in after a visit to the nearby post office. They came from
Kagoshima, lived in Kobe and chose Yuge as a place to start their guest house. They
finally registered as Kamijima town citizens today. They are proceeding step by step for
preparing of their guest house and are warmly welcomed as members of a growing
Kamijima town. Welcome! They feel graceful about the kindness of local people and are
working very hard on their big construction project. We are cheering for their success!
Mots san dropped in o the way to grocery store and enjoyed talking with them.
