They sell fresh produce and wild edible plants all harvested in the Noto area, all against the backdrop of Noto's satoyama scenery of wild mountains and farmland. This farming village stands on a steep slope in the Mikohara district of eastern Hakui city. They have the prefecture's largest area of terraced rice fields, and the elevation's huge daily temperature differential creates excellent growing conditions. Mikohara rice, selected as one of the three most delicious varieties of rice in Japan, is famous for being sent as an offering to the Pope.

Long, thin Ishikawa prefecture runs along the Sea of Japan up into Noto Peninsula. Highlights of the seaside towns lining the west coast include Kanazawa, often described as a "Little Kyoto" thanks to its old wooden tea houses and geisha culture as well as its picturesque Japanese garden, Kenroku-en.
