Agricultural Experience in Asuka (With Lunch). OK in Any Weather!
A farm nestled within the beautiful satoyama scenery of Asuka.
In this tranquil setting, you can experience a new method of recycling-style farming.
In just a few hours, you can try your hand at a whole series of tasks—sowing seeds, planting seedlings, and harvesting produce. Finally, you can even pack the vegetables you pick to take home as a souvenir.
After your farming experience, you’ll enjoy a well-deserved lunch with local farmers.
Lunch is a bento lunchbox featuring seasonal vegetables, prepared by “PocaFrere,” a restaurant that uses remarkably delicious vegetables.
