scorch the earth ! japanese rice farmers burn the ground after harvest to eliminate extra / leftover straw, debris and plant matter so it's partly to reduce labor of manually tyding up but also to kill any pest and their larvae or eggs, as well as weed and their seeds get burned off ash from the burnt crop also provides fertilizer and enriches the soil for the next season, returning minerals such as potassium to the soil

Have you seen these before? They're called myouga and they're some kind of mountain vegetable. The in-laws gave us a bunch and we're trying them in stir-fry tonight. Pic is from Google Images because my wife chopped them up before I could take a picture.

nothing could throw a shiver up my spine like seeing these realistic scarecrows early morning on a long bike ride in the middle of nowhere in Japan. i've been told that farmer get the heads from beauty schools, they are haircutting mannequins that students have already practiced on. i quite like the clear plastic bag over the head it adds an extra little bit of terror

Goshuin are stamps you can collect from temples and shrines in Japan. Each one is written by hand with calligraphy and sealed in red ink. It shows the name of the temple, the date, and sometimes a small blessing. They’re kind of like real life NFTs. Each one is unique, tied to a single place and moment, and you can only get it by being there yourself. This is the fall limited edition one from Miyoshi Shrine in Sapporo. Because it’s so colorful, it’s given on paper and I have to put it in my book later.

traditional japanese rice hang-drying in the field, this formation is called kake-boshi (also known as bokake or inagi). these can be seen hanging throughout the countryside. it usually take 1-2 weeks to dry depending on weather. sun-drying rice increases taste and nutrition, with beneficial transfers of amino acids, sugars, and oils from the stalks into the grains.
