homespun

Homespun is a textile that has been handed down to farmers in Scotland, England. Homespun means "spinning yarn at home." Homespun was introduced to various parts of Japan at the end of the Meiji period, but it gradually became obsolete due to various factors such as regional characteristics and lack of successors, and currently only remains in Morioka City and Hanamaki City. The carefully selected wool is dyed, spun, and woven by hand, creating a light yet warm product.

Handmade cheese Hayachine Daigo

The current president of the association was inspired to start manufacturing the cheese after traveling alone around the country and seeing a cheese feast at a certain church. In 1972, we began producing cheese on our own, and in 1990, we began full-scale production with the establishment of the Osako Cheese Processing and Production Association. This authentic handmade cheese is made using raw Brown Swiss milk, and was even featured as an ingredient on a cooking program on a commercial TV station. It is mainly sold in the town and neighboring municipalities. It is also possible to order online.
