Food Education and Community Support!

The Oishii Okayama Eco Kitchen project officially launched on August 4, delivering high-quality eggs—carefully produced with special attention to feed and humane rearing methods—from a poultry farm in Okayama Prefecture, combined with bread provided by Kurashiki Kokusai Hotel. These ingredients are used to make egg sandwiches, which are then delivered to children’s cafeterias and other support recipients.

Eggs that would otherwise have been discarded now appear on children’s tables, helping reduce food loss while providing valuable opportunities for food education. By observing the slight dirt on the shells or variations in shape, children are encouraged to think about where food comes from and the story behind it.

We are currently seeking groups or individuals who wish to deliver “food education for children” through this initiative, as well as farmers in need of help—such as with crop harvesting due to aging workforces—and volunteers willing to assist them.

The target area includes cities and towns within the Bizen Prefectural Bureau in Okayama Prefecture: Okayama City, Tamano City, Setouchi City, Bizen City, Akaiwa City, Kibichuo Town, and Wake Town.

Join us in connecting the community through food and learning!
