Japanese people often celebrate these events by getting together and enjoying meals using seasonal ingredients. In this program, we will explore the cultural events of fall and show you how Japanese people incorporate the seasonal harvest into their meals. We will also show you bento ideas perfect for picnics in the fall. Come join us to learn about the side of Japanese culture not well known outside of Japan.
