    Niigata Prefecture Myoko City Suginozawa Sasagake Peak
    This ranch in the Sasagamine Highlands is a 40-minute drive from Myoko-Kogen Interchange. The ranch, which was founded in 1902, is located along the promenade that circles Sasagamine. It sits on a 1,300 meter-high gently sloping plateau surrounded by a number of mountains over 2,000 meters tall, including Mt. Myoko, Mt. Hiuchi, Mt. Yakeyama, and Mt. Kurohime. The ranch puts its cattle out to pasture around June each year. Visitors can watch see them leisurely chew grass all over the ranch from early summer when the yellow buttercups first bloom until the fall when the trees get their autumn foliage. The ranch is home to a number of large Japanese elm trees, creating a scenic beauty evocative of some far-off European country.

    紅葉がきれい、また秋は牛も放牧されているのでこれ以上ないのんびり感。都会にはない自然をふれあうにはおすすめのスポットです。

    The Yamakoshi Alpaca Farm is open to visitors between May and November each year. The Farm came into existence as the result of a donation of three alpacas from a donor in Colorado in the U.S.A., who expressed the hope that they might help to cheer people up in the village of Yamakoshi (which had been seriously affected by an earthquake a few years previously). The community of Yubu began looking after the three alpacas. The number of alpacas has grown since then, and Yubu is now a lively area that large numbers of tourists visit to see these fluffy, adorable animals. The Yamakoshi Alpaca Farm is located around 25-minute drive from the Ojiya Interchange of the Kan-Etsu Expressway.

    別の場所に観光に行ったついでに寄りました。山道はかなり険しいですが、到着したところには可愛いアルパカがたくさんいました。100円の餌をあげるとてから上手に食べてくれます。ただ、餌の取り合いが激しくなると唾を飛ばしてくるので注意です。かなり臭いので、、、

    Niigata Niigata-shi Minami-ku Higashikasamakishinden 3044

    農業関連のいろいろな体験ができるのがこの施設の売りですが、何も目的がないと、直売所も小さくてあまり面白くはないです。 同じ新潟市の中央区に「いくとぴあ」というこちらの施設とややコンセプトが被った施設がありますが、ほぼ同時期にオープンしたのに、どうして2つに分けたのか・・・1つにまとめればいいのに。相互の施設が小粒になった感じが否めません。 新潟市民としては税金の無駄遣い的なイメージがあります。

    Visitors at the Mikawa Tourism Mushroom Farm can enjoy looking for mushrooms among the large natural expanse in Aga Town, Higashikanbara County, Niigata Prefecture. Upon arrival visitors receive a bucket from where they can walk around and go mushroom picking. When finished the mushrooms are weighed and paid for. Admission is free. About 10 different varieties of mushroom can be found on the farm depending on the season including shiitake mushrooms, which taste great in the spring, the firm textured eryngii mushrooms, maitake, often referred to as ‘hen of the woods’, oyster mushrooms, and pink oyster mushrooms, not often found in nature. The large canteen overlooking the Casablanca Garden serves all sorts of food made with mushrooms such as mushroom soup and udon noodles, soba and tempura. The barbecue with lots of mushrooms is also very popular.

    ランチのために立ち寄りました。BBQセット(豚肉)とレディースセットを頼みました。 BBQセットは、きのこと肉のセットで、肉は牛、鶏、豚、もつから選べます。 食器は発泡スチロール。木の骨組みに屋根をつけた見晴台のような席で、各テーブルにアルミホイルの鉄板が準備してあります。 アウトドア感満載ですね。 きのこは食べきれないほど多かったです。

    This farm tries a lot of different things, focused around their years-long development of fruit tomatoes, with strawberry cultivation, dried fruit tomato production, ham and original sausage making, and more. Their efforts are cultivation in a low chemical, low fertilizer environment, they were certified as an Ecofarmer by Niigata prefecture in 2004. They have been working on fruit tomatoes, as sweet and flavorful as any fruit, since 1985. They grow in an environment designed to increase the sugar content of tomatoes, making them every bit as sweet and aromatic as any fruit. Most years, you can also enjoy strawberry picking in the greenhouses from February through May.

    Several friends and I visited here in the spring. Many of the strawberry greenhouses had been picked clean by holiday travelers but there were still enough for us to pick and eat our fill. Would have...
