Nagano Farms











































The valley of Nagano was full of meticulously cared for farms: rice fields, apple orchards, grape vines, and residential gardens. As we drove through the town, I couldn't help but notice that some of the farmers were up on ladders tending their trees. They were covering each individual apple with tiny paper-like sleeves. I found the farms quaint and charming and I sensed that the land was worked by loving hands.
