MIGAKI FARM, a tourist strawberry farm in Yamamoto Town, Miyagi Prefecture, is launching a new option for its Premium Strawberry Picking Plan starting Saturday, April 4, 2026. The new "Chilled Vanilla Ice Cream" add-on allows visitors to combine freshly picked Migaki Strawberries with a cup of rich vanilla ice cream, creating their own original parfait or freshly made strawberry ice cream on the spot.
Yamamoto Town in Miyagi is known for its mild climate, long sunshine hours, and significant day-to-night temperature swings, especially in spring. These conditions allow sweet, full-flavored strawberries to ripen well into April and May. However, the temperature inside the growing houses can exceed 25°C on sunny spring days, making a cold treat a welcome addition to the picking experience.
New Option: "Chilled Vanilla Ice Cream" for the Premium Plan
The new option is available as a paid add-on exclusively for Premium Strawberry Picking Plan visitors. Quantities are limited.
- Service start date: Saturday, April 4, 2026
- Price: +¥100 per vanilla ice cream cup
- Payment: Cash only at the venue

1. Customize Your Own Original Parfait

2. Make Your Own Fresh Strawberry Ice Cream
Visitors can drop freshly picked, fully ripe Migaki Strawberries straight into the vanilla ice cream cup, then mash and mix them with a spoon to create a fresh, juice-filled strawberry ice cream right there in the greenhouse.

Chilled Menu at the On-Site Café
After strawberry picking, the on-site café offers additional chilled items for the season.
