The local food marketplace at Asakura Uzuzaka Furusato Community Center offers a variety of fresh vegetables and other specialty products. There are many fresh organic vegetables directly delivered from local farmers sold at reasonable prices, which is why the market is not only popular for the locals but also for the visitors from around the country. Every first and third Sundays of the month, from 9:00 a.m., the market place is filled with shoppers for its special event, “Fureai-Asaichi”.
