4月に着任して、1ヶ月が経ちました。5月に入り、宮崎県内できのこネットワークを広げるべく動き始めています!
車を持っていないので産学官連携マネージャーさんに色々連れて行っていただいております🚗
本日は宮崎県林業技術センターに訪問し、ご挨拶をしてきました😊
It has been a month since I started my new position in April. Now that it’s May, I’ve begun working to expand the mushroom network here in Miyazaki Prefecture!
Since I don’t have a car, I’ve been getting a lot of help from the industry-academia-government collaboration manager, who kindly drives me around. 🚗
Today, I had the pleasure of visiting the Miyazaki Prefectural Forestry Technology Center to introduce myself. 😊

看板が素敵でした🍄今後お世話になると思います🙇
続いて、しいたけ問屋で有名な岡田商店さんへご挨拶に。
次回は、きのこの被り物を着用させてもらいたいです。
そして、しいたけパテをGET!ありがとうございます✨これは食レポもしなければっ。
The entrance sign at the center was absolutely charming. 🍄 I’m sure I’ll be working with them closely in the future. 🙇
After that, I visited Okada Shoten, a well-known wholesale company specializing in shiitake mushrooms, to introduce myself.
Next time, I hope they’ll let me try on one of their famous mushroom hats!
And… I was lucky enough to get my hands on some shiitake pâté! ✨ I definitely need to write a tasting review soon.

こんな感じでちょこちょこ出没していこうと思います。
現場や地域の研究者さんの一次情報を掴むことは研究開発においては重要だと思っています(キリッ)
少しずつ宮崎県のきのこネットワークに入れてもらえると嬉しいです😊
来週も県内をうろちょろする予定です(お仕事)
I’m planning to pop up here and there like this from time to time.
I believe that firsthand information from the field and local researchers is crucial for research and development. (serious face)
I’d be thrilled if I could gradually become part of the mushroom network here in Miyazaki Prefecture. 😊
Next week, I’ll be roaming around the prefecture again for work!
*おまけ*
A Little Extra

ランチの焼き肉(まからん屋さん)タンとホルモンのみというシンプルなメニューですがとっても美味しいです✨おそばもありました。そしてお財布にも優しい🫶
For lunch, I had yakiniku at Makaran-ya!
They keep it simple — just beef tongue and horumon (offal) — but it was absolutely delicious. ✨
They also serve soba noodles, and best of all, it’s very kind to your wallet. 🫶

休憩で立ち寄ったNEZUMIDO BASEさん
クラフトグッズもあって素敵なお茶屋さんです☕
During a break, I stopped by NEZUMIDO BASE — a charming tea shop with a lovely selection of craft goods as well. ☕

きのこ材料で何か製品化したらここにちょこっと置いてもらおうなどと妄想しました。
While I was there, I couldn’t help but daydream — maybe one day I could create something with mushroom materials and have it displayed here. Just a little something. 🍄✨
