I went to the area where ginseng is produced.

We visited the area where the ginseng used in SUGI BEE GARDEN 's "Ginseng Honey Pickles" is grown.
We visited the actual production site and the local agricultural cooperative that manages production.

The ginseng used at SUGI BEE GARDEN is
Anseong City in Gyeonggi Province is famous in Korea for producing high-quality ginseng.

The agricultural cooperative in Anjo City has very detailed management of local production.

From the condition of the soil before cultivation, to information on the producer and cultivation area,
From planting to harvest six years later,
We conduct inspections and surveys determined by national agencies over and over again every year,
We keep detailed records of the production volume of each farm.

The reason why Korean ginseng from Anseong City in northwestern Korea is of high quality is
In addition to the strong management system provided by the agricultural cooperative,
Seasonal and daily temperature differences are large, and the soil has good drainage properties.
The local environment is one example.

 

At this time of year, the harvest for this year had already ended,
We were given a little glimpse of the five-year-old roots, which will be harvested one year later.

Mr. Yang, an agricultural cooperative employee, said:

"Just as the character '人' (person) is used in 'ninjin' (carrot),
For those of us involved in ginseng production, ginseng is like a baby or a child.
Is the child well-bred? Is he/she sick? Just like a person, just like raising a child,
We carefully monitor their growth and nurture them.
The more time and effort you put into it, the better the carrots will be.”

I also had the opportunity to meet one of the producers.
If you look at SUGI BEE GARDEN 's "6-year-old ginseng roots preserved in honey,"

"We are very happy that the carrots we have grown with so much love have been made into such a wonderful product.
I will treasure it.”

He said, ``I'm sorry.''

We aim to create products that convey the producers' passion to our customers.
We will continue to put this into practice.
