Junichi Matano, the manager of Arurunbatake, said, “We planned this fair with the desire to support and encourage the farmers after the heavy snowfall this winter gave them a hard time.  I guarantee that good-tasting and high-quality tomatoes are being shipped this year.”.

People who came to shop said, “Arurun has cheap, fresh and delicious tomatoes.  It’s good for the health, so I make juice, or I cut and eat them every day for three meals.”. Another customer said, “I always come here to buy tomatoes because of their sweetness and size. “

In addition, “Arurun no Mori” sells BLT sandwiches with tomatoes, homemade bacon and lettuce, and tomato juice.

The store manager, Mr Matano said, “Each farmers has different priorities.  Some farmers are particular about the balance between sourness and sweetness, and some are particular about only the sweetness.  We would like customers to enjoy the differences in taste and find their favorite.”
