Peace of mind for the planet, peace of mind for JapanTachibana Tenshinan Co., Ltd.

Shop name "Tachibana" The name of a citrus fruit.
Tachibana is recorded in the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki as Emperor Suinin sending
Hojin to the land of Tokoyo to bring back the elixir of immortality, "Toki jiku no kagu
no konomi" In the Kojiki text, it is written "Now it is Tachibana", and Tachibana trees
are planted in the Shishinden Hall of the Kyoto Imperial Palace as "Ukon Tachibana,Sakon Sakura". Since then, Tachibana has been linked to nostalgia, especially
feelings for old lovers, as an anonymous poet wrote in the summer of the Kokin
Wakashu, "When I smell the scent of the Tachibana tree waiting for May, I smell thescent of the sleeves of someone from long ago". The Order of Culture, establishedin 1937, features a Tachibana design. Tachibana is also depicted on the 500 yencoin．

In pursuit of the ideal sweets
When I was a student, I went to the United States and thought I had bought jeans madein the USA, but when I returned home, I discovered that the jeans were actually made inChina. Also, if a product is labeled as a Tokyo souvenir but was actually made inanother prefecture, or the ingredients were from overseas, it makes you wonder if it isreally a Tokyo specialty. Our company is a company that makes products in Tokyo thatare labeled "Edo" or "Tokyo," and we are proud to offer authentic Tokyo products thatare made in Tokyo using a variety of ingredients from Tokyo

Tokyo is a surprisingly unknown treasure trove of livestock,agricultural and marine products.
Tokyo is a world-famous metropolis. Skyscrapers and a transportation network thatstretches across the city. One of the world's leading cities that never sleeps. Famousfor its Tokyo Skytree and Shibuya Scramble Crossing, Tokyo is also home toeverything from mountain villages with spring water to active volcanoes. It is also acity rich in nature, with parts of national parks such as Chichibu Tama Kai and Fuji
Hakone Izu in the Izu Islands located within Tokyo, and a wide variety of ingredientsare available in each region. It is also a city rich in locally produced ingredients thatyou won't find in New York or Beijing.

ingredients had been rooted in Edo since ancient times, and when feudal lords from allover the country made alternate attendance trips to Edo, they brought seeds of crops
from their hometowns with them, so agricultural products from all over the country
gathered and took root in Edo. Another reason is that in the Meiji period, the National
Naito Shinjuku Experimental Station, the predecessor to Shinjuku Gyoen, wasestablished. As Western culture blossomed, food culture and Western vegetables werebrought from all over the world, and it became a base for cultivation and dissemination
throughout the country. In addition, the Tama River, which flows east to west throughTokyo, and the Ogasawara Islands, which stretch north to south, were also bases forthe farming of freshwater and saltwater fish. Tokyo has been a city blessed withingredients from the Edo period to the present day.

Our mission is to "provide delicious food based on safety and security."
We want to spread the taste of Japan and Tokyo. We pursue safe, secure, and"nostalgic" tastes. When we were children, we ate rice balls at our grandma's house in
the countryside during summer vacation, homemade pickled cucumbers, miso soupwith freshly picked green onions, whole tomatoes that smelled of the sun, and corn thatwas sweet even when raw. Persimmons from the garden that were cut for us saying"This part is fine even though it was eaten by bugs," watermelons cooled in a well, and akitchen with a god of the stove. At that time, words like atopic dermatitis and allergies
did not receive as much attention as they do now. What we can do now. Deliciousness
is a given. Pursuit of safe and secure taste.

Since they are local farmers, we can talk about various aspects
of production.
Many Japanese products are raised by discerning producers who raise them with carelike babies, producing the "careful, delicate, and beautiful" quality that is unique toJapan. For example, beef such as Miyazaki beef and Matsusaka beef, rice such as
Koshihikari and Akitakomachi, and strawberries such as Amaou and Tochiotome.
Japan's commitment to quality is recognized worldwide. This also applies to wheat,eggs, salt, and camellia oil. There are also students from Mizuho Agricultural HighSchool in Tokyo who are working on the problem of "loss of biodiversity" and activities
to "keep traditional vegetable seeds alive." They are fellow producers who supply theingredients for Tachibana Tenshinan's "Edo Tokyo Vegetable Cake with Chili Peppers."
In addition to the freshness that can only be found in the Tokyo area, you can see thefaces of the producers, see their fields, see their barns, and have conversations withthem. With the cooperation of such producers, Tachibana Tenshinan makes anddelivers delicious sweets without adding or subtracting anything.

Tokyo Metropolitan Mizuho Agricultural High School's "Edo Tokyo Vegetable Project" was recognized forcontributing to the revitalization of Mizuho Town by blending "Naito pepper," one of the Edo Tokyo vegetables,with tea and tomatoes, which are specialties of Mizuho Town, to create the "Mizuho Seven-Color Chili Pepper."In recognition of our activities, the Governor of Tokyo has awarded us the "Tokyo
Regional Specialty Food" certification for our production of locally produced and locallyconsumed products made from ingredients from Tokyo.
