Aizumi Town, as its name ("indigo dwelling") suggests, prospered as a major producer of Awa indigo. At "Ai-no-Yakata," an indigo merchant's residence, visitors learn the history and try indigo dyeing. The town belongs to the Japan Heritage story "Awa, Home of Indigo." Its spring–summer carrot harvest ranks 2nd in Japan, and it is a commuter town for Tokushima City.
