Supervised by :  Fruit Park Yohei

Fruit Park Yohei grows fruit using organic fertilizer and minimal pesticides on approximately 2.5 acres of land. From early August to mid-October, visitors can pick and eat as many sweet, juicy pears as they like with no time limit.

The orchard has around 500 pear trees representing 14 varieties, including Kosui, known for its crisp texture and high water content; Hosui, with an ideal balance of sweetness and tartness; and the late-ripening Niitaka. Visitors can harvest whichever varieties are in season at the time of their visit. Peel the pears you pick with the provided plastic knife and eat them at the covered tables or in the pear orchard. Leftovers and harvested pears may not be taken home, so be mindful of how quickly you can eat them and avoid picking too many at once.

In addition to the all-you-can-eat option, pears can be picked and purchased individually. There is also an on-site farm stand selling pears to take home, including varieties not available for picking, such as Nijisseiki and La France.
