Ikari Farm

Ikari Farm is located in Kawayu, in Teshikaga-cho. On this farm, there is a strong commitment to agricultural practices which ensure high-quality soils.The words “potatoes” or “pumpkins” themselves say nothing about the quality of the produce, but consumers can soon tell the high quality of the produce from Ikari Farm by actually eating them.Judgements about the food safety of farm products, on the other hand, cannot be made simply by tasting the food.Mr. Ikari is highly committed to ensuring a high standard of food safety. This is reflected in the care he takes when preparing the soil for his crops.The vegetables grown in the soil on Ikari farm are not only safe, but also very tasty.Throughout the year, we serve fresh vegetables and potatoes from Ikari Farm. After being kept in cold storage and let mature, they taste even better.

Growing tasty “rhubarb”-Masyu is the perfect place

“Rhubarb” is a kind of herb that is native to southern Siberia.Characterized by its fresh fragrance and slightly sour taste, rhubarb has been a popular food choice in European and American homes for generations. It is commonly used in salads and sweets.Awareness of rhubarb in Japan as a healthy food choice has been growing in recent years. It is rich in dietary fiber, potassium and vitamin C, and also helps relieve constipation. While domestically produced rhubarb is still scarce in Japan, the climate in Masyu is remarkably similar to that of its native land, making Masyu the perfect place to grow rhubarb.
