Sweeten your trip with freshly picked strawberries
Strawberry picking is one of the most popular winter and springtime activities here in the fruit kingdom of Japan; both old and young alike can enjoy eating as many strawberries as they want within the given time limit in any weather, in the comfort of a warm greenhouse.
Located in southern Kofu, the Omagari-cho district is Yamanashi prefecture’s biggest strawberry production area, blessed with the longest hours of sunlight in the country. Fruits are grown using both regular soil planting and raised gutters to ensure clean fruits and minimize the strain on the body during picking.
All-you-can-eat picking sessions typically include free condensed milk, for enhanced sweetness.
