Experience Details

Escape to the peaceful countryside of Hiroshima and discover why this long-established farm’s harvests are trusted by high-standard restaurants from Hokkaido to Okinawa.


Known for its fresh baby leaves, edible flowers, and specialty herbs, the farm offers a rare look into Japan’s farm-to-table world, where ingredients are grown with care and sent directly to top kitchens.


The tour starts by getting to know the farm team before heading into the fields.


There, you'll walk through rows of in-season greens as your guide explains how each variety is grown, how flavor develops, and what professional chefs look for when choosing high-quality leaves and herbs.


Throughout the tour, you’ll touch, smell, and taste vegetables picked moments before, enjoying them at their most fragrant and flavorful.


This immersive walk includes in-field tastings, where you can compare differences in texture, aroma, and freshness between varieties. You’ll also learn about herb types that can be grown at home and discover how chefs use these ingredients to elevate their dishes.


A dedicated question and answer session gives you time to ask about cultivation techniques, seasonal produce, and recommendations for cooking.


Ideal for curious cooks, nature enthusiasts, and anyone seeking to understand the connection between farming and fine dining. The tour highlights what makes this farm’s ingredients so distinctive.


Established in 1974, the farm now ships to more than 600 locations across Japan and Hong Kong. President Yuzuru, a graduate of the Niagara Parks School of Horticulture, leads a team of skilled growers who take pride in their organic methods.


Step into the countryside, taste vegetables at their source, and discover why renowned restaurants rely on these carefully grown ingredients to bring depth and character to their dishes.
