Beyond seasonal fruits, even "cacti" are now available! Experience-based spots where you can choose and harvest your own produce are evolving. We visited some of the latest and most noteworthy spots that can be enjoyed by all generations. ■40 minutes of all-you-can-eat rare peach varieties! "Peach picking" where you break even after eating just 3 peaches First, N-Sta headed to Fuefuki City, Yamanashi Prefecture. This farm offers "peach picking" of the season. Currently, the recommended variety is "Yumeshizuku." It's a rare variety that isn't widely available, characterized by its soft flesh and rich sweetness. Miharashien staff member, Kotaro Nohara: "Each person gets 40 minutes of all-you-can-eat peaches picked from the field, so we get over 2000 people a day at our busiest." A peach that would normally cost around 600 yen is available for 1600 yen for 40 minutes of all-you-can-eat. Eating just 3 peaches breaks even, which is why they have so many customers from outside the prefecture. Two families from Tokyo also tried their hand at peach picking. Despite their small size, they devoured the peaches quickly, ultimately finishing a total of 15 peaches between the four of them. Mother: "It was fun. It's a great memory." ■ Five kinds of "vegetable picking" for just 500 yen – 900 yen cheaper than the market!? Next, we visited "Yasai na Nakama-tachi Farm" in Fukaya City, Saitama Prefecture. At the farm within the facility, you can pick 3 to 5 kinds of vegetables for just 500 yen! First, we headed to a field of somewhat unusual bell peppers. Mai Izumi (caster): "At first glance, they look like shishito peppers, but are these also bell peppers?" Kayo Matsumura (Yasai na Nakama-tachi Farm): "They're called banana peppers." Mai Izumi (caster): "They're bell peppers with a sweetness similar to paprika. They have less bitterness and a unique, fruity aroma." Next, we picked eggplants, which are in season now. Four varieties are available for harvesting, including white eggplants and round eggplants. Among them, the round eggplants, which are packed with flesh, are said to be delicious when cooked until they become tender and melt in your mouth. Vegetable sommelier Matsumura recommends "Round Eggplant Pizza Toast." Simply spread pizza sauce on bread, top with sliced ​​round eggplant and cheese, and bake for 5 minutes. After that, we harvested a total of five kinds of vegetables: three heads of lettuce, five kale leaves, and two large zucchinis. All this for 500 yen. Compared to the prices at the market within the facility, this is about 900 yen cheaper. ■It's not just food you can harvest!
