【History and Origin of Togetsuen】Peach and Satsuki Garden

 

80 years ago, during the post-war period of food shortages in Japan, Shunzo Ito, the 7th head of the Ito family, and Harue Ito, the 8th head of the Tougetsuen family, worked together to grow peaches in Taoyuan for the nutrition of the people in the Saitama City (then Omiya City) area. I put my heart and soul into it. As a result, I received the [Prime Minister's Award] as a peach of Japan. Soon after that, it became an era when food was full, and this time, thinking about nourishment for the soul, I started a bonsai garden, Togetsuen, in Nishi Ward, Saitama City. Became the first owner of the peach and Satsuki Garden [Togetsuen]. Again, I received the [Prime Minister's Award] for Satsuki Bonsai. Every year in May at Omiya Hikawa Shrine and here at Togetsuen, we hold the [Satsuki Festival] in conjunction with the flowering season of the bonsai trees. That is the origin of the Togetsuen Festival ~ Peach Moon Festival. Shunzo served as chairman of the Omiya department of the Japan Bonsai Association for over 30 years. He was the first Japanese bonsai to be exported overseas more than 50 years ago (currently Tomomi Kobayashi, chairman of the local government in Mamiya Nakano, Nishi-ku, in charge of transportation), and he was the first Japanese bonsai to be exported overseas, and is the driving force behind the world's bonsai. Many foreign tourists visited Togetsuen by pigeon bus. Saitama City (Omiya) came to be called the town of bonsai around the world. I received orders from overseas such as the United States, but I sent the bonsai seedlings over and over again, even if they died during transportation. Shunzo never thought about making a profit. 2nd Togetsuen Country Harue loved Mamiya throughout her life and taught Japanese dance to the local people. He also served as a traffic safety instructor. She also danced to local people at local primrose festivals and other events. She generously cooperated with local cultural activities.In addition, my son-in-law, Akiyoshi Ito, served as the chairman of the residents' association of Mamiya Nakano, Nishi Ward for many years, and was succeeded by Kiyoshi Kuroiwa, the former chairman of the residents' association of Nishi Ward. Currently, Takahisa Ito, the 9th eldest son of the Ito family, is the head of the Mamiya Nakano Youth Group in Nishi Ward, Saitama City, and is engaged in volunteer activities in Nishi Ward. For more than 30 years, Shoko Ito, the eldest daughter of the 9th generation, has performed diplomatic performances sponsored by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, etc., and has been the owner of the Togetsuen while working to introduce Japanese cultural theater to the world. In 2023, the movie starring director Sho Ito [Kaku ni Sora ~ Drawing in the Sky] was selected at 17 international film festivals in 13 countries and won awards at 4 film festivals.It is also designated as Saitama City's official cycling holiday stopping point and official disaster evacuation drinking water supply site during the peach month. Inside Togetsuen, Saitama Togetsuen Campsite, a store that promotes the appeal of Nishi Ward, Ryan02, a healing shaved ice shop, creative cuisine Mokutenryo, and BIG MOUSE, a health-conscious cafe, are added to make it a place of relaxation in Nishi Ward, Saitama City.

 

 

Protective Cat Punch and Belos Heaven

 

At Togetsuen, stray cats are protected and used as local cats in the park, and in cooperation with customers, it is also a place where they can interact with animals.

Thank you to everyone who loved the cat punch of Togetsuen. Customers, Mr. Saiki, Mr. Toru, Mr. Sanada, Mr. Seki, and Mr. Umi, Mr. Ryan's husband and wife. Thank you for always taking care of me. Thank you. In Berlin, I took care of my beloved cat Belos (pictured Below), who had been adopted as a rescue cat in Greece for 10 years, but passed away at the end of October last year. Belos and Punch have the same pattern, are 12 years old (assumed), and went to heaven around the same time. Punch went to heaven with great gratitude to all the guests at Togetsuen .The two may be twin brothers in heaven. In May 2019, Punch sat down at the front door of his house asking for a cat from Togetsuen. He was thin and ragged with many scars.Punch stopped punching because everyone thought it was cute. Every morning, Punch would go to his Main house, Big Mouse cafe, Campground, Mokutenryo, and Ryan to get food in that order. Punch was allowed to live three and a half years longer (18 years for humans). Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the Punch. It was a fun cat life. Thank you very much. I loved you  from Punch

Togetsuen hopes to continue the friendship with the local people, albeit modestly.
