“Pick and eat fresh strawberries in a high-bench greenhouse, then take home homemade jams, dried strawberries, cakes, puddings, and drinks made from farm-fresh strawberries.”
Nagashima Farm, located in Kuwana City, Mie Prefecture in central Japan, is a greenhouse strawberry farm offering visitors the chance to pick fresh strawberries and purchase related souvenirs. The farm is ideal for families, couples, and travelers looking to experience fresh fruit in a charming rural Japanese atmosphere.
The main highlight is the 40-minute all-you-can-eat strawberry session inside the greenhouse. Opened in 2017, the farm’s strawberry season generally runs from mid-December to late May. High-bench cultivation makes strawberry picking easy and comfortable for children, seniors, and visitors using strollers or wheelchairs. Unlimited sweetened condensed milk is also provided.
Off-season (June – November)
During summer and autumn, the all-you-can-eat strawberry activity is closed, but visitors can still enjoy:
-

-
Dining/Café Area: Relax, sip coffee, or enjoy light snacks.
-
Other Seasonal Displays: The farm may host rotating agricultural exhibits or displays featuring other crops, such as a 2,000-year-old olive tree mentioned in some reviews.
