Tohoku Tea Relief Caravan

I took part "Tohoku Tea Relief Caravan" at Ashigara/足柄 ,Kanagawa.
Ashigara is mountainous areas in Kanagawa Prefecture and is dotted with tea gardens.
This area was first discovered on tea radiation exposure after Great East Japan Earthquake.
At Ashigara,tea farmers measured radiation their tea leaves and announced themself.
At the time,they first met the radiation probrem.
And they have been actioning on this problem in anguish.
Tea farmer's action shows that they are sincerity for tea.
I believe that farmer's idea will bring good results.
This Bancha/番茶 was made for this day.
The taste was very good.
