A Hirose-Iwakuni High School student presents a green tea leaf to Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni, Japan, residents during a Cultural Adaption Program tea harvesting event in Iwakuni City, May 7, 2015. The students, guests and even elders from a local nursing home spent the afternoon selectively picking the green tea leaves that would later be fanned, steamed cooled, pressed, rolled and dried for everyone’s enjoyment. Through cultural exchanges like the Tea Harvesting event, station residents can broaden their knowledge about Japan while better solidifying a growing U.S.-Japanese relationship.
