2 hours from the city center by car or train. Accessible and perfect for weekend trips. There are many farms in Tochigi where they grow and offer fruit such as strawberries, pears, grapes, apples, and more for picking, so you can enjoy picking fruit all year round. Strawberries are in season now. I don't think there is anyone who doesn't know "Tochiotome". Created in Tochigi, it has been the number 1 strawberry for over a half a century.

There are a lot of tourist farms that offer all-you-can-eat courses for juicy, red, delicious strawberries. The houses are designed wide enough for baby strollers and wheelchairs, so that all families can come join in on the fun. You can pick 4 different types of strawberries, including the well-known “Tochiotome” and the top-class “Skyberry”. Tasting and comparing all the various strawberry varieties is part of the charm.

The “Skyberry” owes its name to the fact that it reaches up to the sky in size, beauty and taste! It comes from Mount Sukai, one of the 100 famous mountains in Tochigi prefecture. The Skyberry's characteristics are its beautiful round shape and its bright color. The fruit offers an excellent taste that strikes a perfect balance between sweet and sour. It also offers a smooth texture and a unique scent. So when you have your next holiday coming up, why not come enjoy this season’s strawberries?
