Portland Living

Hi everyone, Happy here.

On Sunday, Circles set up a booth at Portland Living.

For the event, Circles brought out the Beer Bike to serve Y.Market Brewing craft beer, and we also had test-ride bikes from Bike Friday—hand-made in Eugene, Oregon—which were a big hit last time.

Unfortunately, the weather was not the best, so not many people took them for a test ride, but they were quite popular with the event organizers!

Right next to the Circles booth, our sister store Pine Fields Market was set up as well, just like last time. Their classic koppepan sandwiches sold out incredibly quickly. Thank you to everyone who stopped by.
I really wanted to try one myself, so I’ll make sure to grab one early next time... (oops!)

Portland Living is a place where you can find fresh local vegetables from Aichi and products made by local artisans. Because the makers themselves are there at their booths, you can meet them and communicate directly. Isn't that one of the charms of Portland Living—meeting the people who make, sell, and buy the goods?

When you talk to the vendors, even a single tomato has a story behind the process of how it was grown. Just hearing those stories makes you want to eat them, and when you actually do, they are surprisingly sweet and delicious.

"Portland Living" is packed with charm.
The more you get to know it, the more you'll be captivated—I'm already looking forward to the next event. It’s supposed to be a night market in early August. Can't wait!
