Japan Shopping Tourism Organization

In the beginning of 1990’s, one of Japanese research companies asked a simple question of 10,000 people in the world: “Which country’s products do you think are the best in quality?”

So far, possibly some ten thousand foreigners visited our farm as guests and volunteers in the past over 20 years. Yet, unfortunately I see some foreigners causing troubles, and in most cases they cause troubles or frictions with local Japanese because of their lack of sense that Japanese usually have in common.

Fruit picking is internationally popular and common to do, especially for city people in many countries. In most cases, people enjoy picking fruits out of trees directly and eating on the farm. Or sometimes, they pick fruits by themselves out of trees and ask the owner of the local farm, the weight and pay for the amount to carry them home.
