Variety Comparison Experience
Visitors can enjoy all-you-can-eat strawberry picking featuring 3-5 popular varieties including Yotsuboshi, Benihoppe, Kaorino, Koiminori, and Oi C Berry. The farm allows guests to compare the unique flavors and characteristics of different strawberry varieties.
Commitment to Fully Ripened Strawberries
Unlike commercially distributed strawberries that are harvested early to prevent damage during shipping (which often results in more acidity), Genki Farm focuses on delivering perfectly ripened strawberries at their peak sweetness. The farm carefully determines the optimal harvest timing to provide visitors with the best possible strawberry experience.
Spacious Open Greenhouse
The farm utilizes state-of-the-art smart agriculture technology in its greenhouse facilities. The hydroponic cultivation system (soil-free growing) maintains a clean environment and provides a comfortable, spacious atmosphere for visitors. One unique feature is the strawberries suspended from the ceiling, creating a floating appearance that makes for memorable photos and an unusual harvesting experience.
