“Drink the milk.”
― Brandon Mull, Fablehaven
Having escaped from the noise of the urban areas of Tokyo, it was a pleasure to spend time in the middle of nature where time flows slowly.
For the first time in my life, I tried hand milking a cow in the Isonuma Farm, located in the city of Hachioji. Their experienced staffs showed us what to do, and we had a chance to touch the raw milk which is warmer than it seems. Additionally, it was a great opportunity to learn where milk actually come from before it gets to the shelves of supermarkets. Not only for kids, but adults were also welcomed to try it too.
