Natori, Miyagi Pref. is a famous place for producing carnations.

The district was attacked by tsunami this time, and the flowers were seriously damaged.

However, with the life force itself and farmers' deep treat, they are being shipped to other areas in Japan.

Even in such a tough situation, people in the attacked area wouldn't forget their thoughts to mothers;

They are trying to get carnations and giving them to their mothers even they're still missing.

Let's pray for the flowers to be reached

We set up flying carp on every 5 May, which is the day of Boy's Festival,

as a traditional event to promote boys' healthy growth.

This year, 200 carps were sent from all over Japan to the campaign, "Aoi-Koinobori-Project"

by a high school student who lost his young brother in the earthquake.
