Shikano Sedge Hat Preservation Society is involved in the whole process of growing and processing sedge, and then making and selling hats produced in Shikano. It also promotes technical exchange with producers in other prefectures, like Fukae Sedge-Craft Preservation Society in Osaka prefecture, which makes hats for festivals to celebrate the succession of an emperor (Daijō-sai). In order that the craft may be passed on to future generations, the Society also demonstrates techniques of sedge-hat production to junior-high school students so they can appreciate the hats’ quality and charm.
