Mochibiyari
Mochibiyari is a type of Hiyari event, which means a meal together. In the Yamana district of Minamiboso City (formerly Miyoshi Village), Mochibiyari takes place before the start of the year's farming work. Participants gather at the designated house to discuss arrangements for farming, such as the order of rice planting, and address district issues, before sharing a meal.
A unique feature of this event is that participants receive daifuku mochi (rice cakes covered in kinako powder) as souvenirs, chosen by lottery.
もちびやり
モチビヤリはヒヤリという行事の一種で、ヒヤリとは会食を意味します。南房総市（旧三芳村）山名地区のモチビヤリは、その年の農作業が始まる前に、当番の家に集まり、田植えの順などの農作業における取決めや地区の課題などを話し合った後、会食をします。
ここではきな粉をまぶした大福餅を、くじ引きでおみやげとして持って帰る点に特徴がありました。
