◆Hikoku Hiraka Momo Highway◆ The flower peach of Hikokudaira began in Heisei 9 when he purchased 15 original seedlings from Kiyonai Road in Achi Village and planted them around his home. (It is said that the flower peach of Kiyonaiji originated in the 11th year of the Taisho era, when Momosuke Fukuzawa (Yukichi Fukuzawa's son-in-law) brought back seedlings from Munich, Germany.) ） Impression by the wonderful red, white, and pink flowers of the peaches, I decided that I wanted to plant trees according to the Local landscape, so I planted trees extensively. Trees were planted on their own land and along roads, and trees were also planted on village-owned land on the side of the road. In Heisei 12, we received a "self-made community development project grant" and received cooperation from neighboring residents in planting trees and cutting undergrowth, and now more than 200 flower peaches have been planted. Every year, the scenery surrounded by beautiful flowers and peaches has become a popular area. The name of Hikokudaira is derived from the store name of its founder, Masaru Kubota.
