1. The Light of the Fields Where Harvest Begins

The autumn foothills, brimming with the rich hues of ripe persimmons, signal the start of the busy season for Nurifarmer every year. Each tree is densely laden with orange-hued persimmons, and the farmer begins the day’s harvest, carefully observing the sunlight and wind. Ripe persimmons are examined with fingertips, picked one by one, and placed into baskets. This process transcends mere harvesting; it is akin to gathering the energy of the entire year. The mountain breeze filtering through the persimmon trees and the warm sunlight combine to make the moment of harvest always one of nature’s most beautiful scenes.

2. The Standards for Dried Persimmons, Shaped by Sorting and Preparation

Harvested persimmons don’t become dried persimmons immediately. First, a meticulous sorting process takes place, based on size, condition, and sugar content. From plastic baskets brimming with persimmons, only those with the right texture for dried persimmons are selected and moved to the workbench. Workers personally check the surface condition and firmness of each persimmon. This is followed by the peeling process, which requires precise work at a steady pace to avoid damaging the persimmon’s texture. The moment the peeled persimmons, gleaming orange, are laid out in rows, the preparation for becoming dried persimmons is finally complete.

3. Persimmons Hanging in the Drying Room, Breathing in Time

The prepared persimmons are immediately moved to the drying room and hung at regular intervals. Filling the wooden structure of the drying shed, the persimmons slowly lose moisture and concentrate their sweetness within the gaps where the wind flows through. The harmony between the mountain ridges visible outside the window and the orange glow filling the drying shed symbolizes the dedication unique to Nuri Farmers. Meticulous care follows, checking the daily changes in temperature and wind movement, adjusting the position and arrangement to ensure the persimmons dry evenly. This accumulation of time is the key to achieving the deep, distinctive flavor unique to dried persimmons.

4. The Final Product: Crafted by Nature’s Power and the Farmer’s Touch

Inside the drying shed, the persimmons gradually shrink and deepen in color, taking on the form of dried persimmons. To achieve the subtle aroma and moist texture characteristic of natural drying, the farmer checks the drying status daily, maintaining optimal humidity and temperature. In the workshop, the finished dried persimmons undergo one final quality check before being sorted and prepared for packaging. The entire journey, from harvest to final finishing, is not completed by nature’s power alone; it takes shape only when the farmer’s experience and hands are added. Nuri farmer’s dried persimmons are created through this long dedication and the blessings of nature coming together.
