Haskap hunting In the idyllic countryside surrounded by nature, there is a haskap field with dark purple berries that bear fruit like bells. Bibai City is the production area of "haskap", which boasts the highest harvest in Japan, and you can enjoy haskap picking experience at many farms in the city during the season of June ~ July. Haskap, which is famous as a healthy fruit, contains a lot of vitamins, calcium, iron, etc., and is said to be effective in preventing anemia, sensitivity to cold, eye strain, as well as spots and freckles, and was once prized as a "fruit of immortality and longevity" in Ainu culture. Haskap, a precious fruit grown only in a limited area of Hokkaido, is also called the "phantom fruit" or "pearl of the north." The haskap hunting experience is held for about one month from the end of June every year.

"Ohara Red Early" is a specialty of Kagawa's citrus fruits, and the main production area is Sakaide City. The skin of the fruit is thin, the flesh is tender, and the sweet and juicy flavor makes people addicted as soon as they eat it.

In modern Japan, after securing a Christmas cake, winter is the strawberry picking season. Because it is warm because it is in a greenhouse, there are many strawberry gardens that are hydroponically cultivated so that even children can easily pick strawberries so that strawberries hang at about the waist height of adults, so you don't have to worry about hurting your hips and knees when you butterfly flower. It is also nice to be able to eat all-you-can-eat sweet large strawberries for several tens of minutes and compare multiple varieties. The photo is a strawberry picking garden in Shiga Prefecture, but it is located all over the country, so why not try it when you come to Japan?
