labels

Friday, Japan got hit with more rain from a typhoon that was passing to the right of us, so much more damage and flooding in areas that were already trying to recover...hoping with November coming up that typhoon season will truly be over.

On to today's post...

Sometimes our labels for fruits and vegetables have these QR codes...

I circled it in green and have an arrow pointing to it. (the other arrow is the farmer's info...name and member number)

When you open the link from the QR code (which didn't work), it should take you to the Japan Agriculture (JA) site and show you the person who grew these ichijiku (figs).

Sometimes the labels do not have the QR code, just the picture of the person who grew the fruit/veg.

I think it is a nice way to "see" and appreciate the person who grew the fruits and veggies we eat.

Do the veggies/fruit you buy have these types of labels where you live?
