Toyosu Plant Festival

The Toyosu Plant Festival is a great event to attend if you have an interest in gardening or would like to develop one. This two-day festival offers a variety of enjoyable activities such as plant-themed workshops, hands-on craft activities including dried flower wreath making, and nature-inspired games.

One of the highlights of the festival is the release of the book “Maki no Maki Letter,” which tells the story of Tomitaro Makino, a renowned Japanese botanist often referred to as the Father of Japanese Botany. Makino was responsible for the classification of over 50,000 plant specimens from all over Japan. The book sheds light on Makino’s life and contributions to the field of botany in Japan.
