Strawberry picking season (January to May)
Although it depends on the weather conditions of the year, the varieties cultivated at the strawberry farm, and the weather, you can generally enjoy strawberry picking from early January to around May. In addition to picking your own strawberries, there are also strawberry farms where you can enjoy cafes and illuminations, so if you are in Shikoku, be sure to stop by Naruto City.
1. Iseya Farm (8-1 Nibankoshi, Higashiumazume, Taima-cho)
Iseya Farm is a tourist farm that grows strawberries and pears, and also has a farm-to-produce market.
At Iseya Farm's strawberry farm, the wide walkways have been designed to make picking easy so that even small children and people in wheelchairs can enjoy strawberry picking.
In addition, eight varieties of strawberries are grown in five greenhouses, so you can enjoy comparing the taste of each. (*Varieties available for harvest vary depending on the day.)
In addition to strawberry picking, you can also enjoy shopping at the farmer's market.
