Trimming Japanese Tea Trees

A few months ago we took over a 700 m2 Tea Farm who was managed by 87 year old farmers. This farm was abandoned almost 2 years since the farmers are getting older.
With the mission to revitalise Yubune area and maintain the suatainability of Tea Farms in Wazuka (which is one of the major producers of Uji green tea), we are honored to continue the legacy by looking after the farms.
The uniqueness of this farm is that it has 4 green tea cultivars in one farm, including Samidori, Yabukita, Okumidori, and Gokou. We are preparing for next harvesting by trimming the trees, so the new tea leaves will grow and can be harvested.
