The saplings from the bombed kaki tree were planted at Shiraume Kindergarten and Higashi-gyonin Kindergarten on 7 March 2013. Children made the “Kaki Babies” drawings during the workshop held on 22 February 2013. The Aizu craftsmen have just finished making fine, pretty boxes to keep these drawings. They will be carefully kept inside the boxes for 10 years. When they get together again in 10 years from the planting, they will open them. We hope that children as well as the kaki trees grow up healthy in the coming 10 years.
We would like to express our gratitude to the Aizu craftsmen for their excellent work and generosity, and to the people at the Fukushima Museum for their cooperation!
