With gratitude for the rice ears that are full of vitality!

Friday, August 23, 2024

At this time of year, the rice ears are beginning to ripen, turning brown and drooping heavily...
This is the time when starch is produced through photosynthesis and nutrients are stored in the seeds.

With boundless love, gratitude and prayers for the sacred rice ears that grow with all our heart and soul and are overflowing with vitality...
