Okamoto Farm Harvesting and Jingisukan Lunch
Okamoto Farm in Nakasatsunai Village is a crop farm that has received eco-farmer certification due to their efforts to reduce their environmental impact while providing safe and reliable agricultural products. In this tour program, you will experience digging for potatoes and onions by hand, before riding on an actual harvester in the fields. You can then enjoy the vegetables you harvested together with Jingisukan (grilled mutton and lamb) for lunch. You can also visit the farm’s own product factory and try out their original tomato berry cream puff.
