At the Ogura Tea Garden’s Yabukita #tea field today to continue my effort to document the growth of a tea leaf. Ogura-san also stopped by and showed my son how to catch lady bugs while I did some filming.

@murateafarm points out in this photo that the spring first flush is about 5-8 days later than last year. It’s not that this year is late but rather that last year was abnormally early, catching the industry by surprise so prices were low. Hoping that farmer’s like Murata-san fetch high prices at the market this year!
