Puchi-na, the town's mascot
Kenbuchi's mascot is Puchi-na (ぷっちーな, Putchi-na) or her full name, Ariel Petit Santa Rosa de Lima (アリエル・プチ・サンタ・ロサ・デ・リマ). She is a reticent but friendly and curious llama from Palcamayo, Peru to reside in Viva Alpaca Farm in January 2013 from Kenbuchi's Peruvian community after reading a Christmas card. She became mascot on 17 February 2013. Her hobbies are visiting events and collecting picture books. She is a vegetarian. As a result, she pays homage to the immigrants to Japan. She has a brother named Alpaca Pal (アルパカ・パル, Arupaka Paru). Her birthday is the same day as the Kenbuchi Shrine Festival (12 July). According to Andean legend, her heart contains a mysterious power that causes happiness.[1]
