What is the Hamafudo Concierge?
"Hamafudo" is a combination of Yokohama's "Hama", "Fudo" and "food" and means locally grown and consumed in Yokohama. Since fiscal 2006, Yokohama City has been conducting activities to promote locally grown and consumed by connecting “food” and “agriculture” in Yokohama, and has certified those who have completed courses sponsored by the city as “Hamafudo Concierge”.
Support for Hamafudo Concierge
- Conducted follow-up workshops
We will hold a workshop for Hamafudo Concierges. The theme of the workshop will be planned based on common issues, questionnaires and suggestions to everyone. - Providing information about locally grown and consumed
We will send you a variety of information about locally grown and consumed, including the information magazine "Hamafudo Navi" that connects the fields of Yokohama and the dining table. In addition, we will issue an e-mail magazine dedicated to the concierge in order to share information on the activities of the Hamafudo concierge among the concierges (irregular). - Offering opportunities to participate in events related to locally grown and consumed
Applicants who have completed the course have the opportunity to participate in events held by the city. - Support for locally grown and consumed Activities
We support the planning and implementation of marche and harvesting experiences organized by the Hamafudo Concierge. ※For details, please refer to the bottom of the page.
