Representative Produce of Nara

Nara’s shining red jewels  Strawberry

Originally, Strawberries were harvested in the spring, but innovations in technology meant that they could be shipped during the Christmas season. Many of these technological advances were developed in Nara in the 1960’s and 1970’s. Even now, strawberry farmers in Nara have high-level technical skills and produce good quality strawberries.
