Sell hot and overgrown vegetables without throwing them away
とても暑い日が続いています
It’s been a very hot day
According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, there are vegetables that grow larger than normal in hot weather.
Even though they are edible, they are sometimes thrown away because their size and shape do not meet market rules.

The company has sold five items so far, including overgrown pumpkins and overgrown cucumbers.
A company in Hanamaki City, Iwate Prefecture also sells vegetables and fruits that do not meet the rules on the Internet.
食べ物を捨てないで大切にしたいと考えて、野菜を作る人にも食べる人にも役に立つサービスをしようとする会社が増えています
An increasing number of companies want to cherish food rather than throw it away, and are trying to provide services that are useful to both those who grow vegetables and those who eat them.
