marche Kitanaka

Yokohama Kitanaka marche is a marche that has been held since November 2015 in the Yokohama Kitanakadori north district close to Akarengasoko. Currently, it is held on the third Saturday and Sunday of every month, and has become established in the area, but the venue will be relocated to the first floor of Kitanaka Brick & White from 2020.
In Yokohama City, we will continue to open a “Yokohama Farm PR booth” in Yokohama Kitanaka marche to promote Yokohama's agriculture in urban coastal areas such as Minatomirai, where farmland is scarce.
Therefore, at the "Yokohama Farm PR Booth", we will sell agricultural and livestock products we have produced and recruit producers who cooperate with the PR of "Yokohama Farm" and businesses that manufacture processed products.
