Apricot fruit starting to develop

亀清旅館の「千歳」と言う客間はこの千曲市の森地区「あんずの里」の記念で「杏」と言うテーマに合わせてプッチ改造しています。その一部としてはお部屋の庭に杏の木を庭師の岡田さんに植えてもらいました。今日に見たら、立派な身が出始まりました。さすがあんずの里に近い温泉地と思いました。

ちなみに、本来の杏狩り@あんずの里は6月25日(土)~7月15日(金)頃
で行うそうです。戸倉上山田温泉・千曲市は杏から初めて、サクランボ、ぶどう、梨、そして代表のりんごで次から次へ果実が出てきます。その最初は杏です。楽しみにしていま~す!ご一緒に杏狩りに行きませんか?

For Kamesei Ryokan's guestroom 'Chitose', we are doing a slight make-over around an "Apricot" theme in honor of nearby Mori 'Apricot Village'. We had our gardener, Okada-san, plant an apricot tree in the room's private garden. When I took a look at it today, I was surprised to see it was starting to bear fruit!

Apricot picking will officially take place in Mori from June 25th thru July 15th. Apricots will be followed by cherries, table grapes, pears, and the granddaddy of them all, apples. Togura Kamiyamada has a veritable parade of fruit picking. But first, the apricots. Won't you come and join me for apricot picking?
