Vol.121 The Island with Balmy Breezes - Awaji Island

Overview

In early summer, Venetia goes to Awaji Island. A horticultural-therapy school teaches Venetia, who can no longer garden the way she used to because of her failing eyesight, the importance of appreciating plants with all senses. At Ei, known for its incense production, the Koh-shi, responsible for how the incense smells, shows her the centuries-old method. A keeper of indigenous honeybees shows her the "nectar-supplying forest" he spent 7 years growing. It is made for the bees in every detail.
