What is Piggy’s Grandma?
Welcome to our site!
Let me introduce you to my parents, an elderly couple running a small farm in Saitama, Japan. This website is all about their daily life, the people around them, and a wide range of topics related to Japanese culture, food, and various activities. We hope you enjoy it!
For over 30 years, they were pig farmers. But as they got older, they decided to switch to growing vegetables.
That’s why we named this website “Piggy’s Grandma of Japan.”
“Baba” (ばあば) is a Japanese word for “grandma” or an elderly woman. When their children got married and had grandkids, my mother became known as “Piggy’s Grandma.” “Buuchan” (ぶーちゃん) is a kid’s nickname for a little pig.
