Nishiyama Farm offers the experience of picking seasonal fruit. You can enjoy all-you-can-eat peach from the early July to the early September. You can eat well-chilled and fully ripened sweet peach as many as you want! I like also the outside eat-area, which is photogenic and lovely. ◎Reservation is required for all-you-can-eat and picking fruit. There's a limit for the number of picking peach for a day. Chilly Peach All-YOU-CAN-EAT fees: adult 2250 yen, child 1100 yen. You can buy fruit to bring home at a market located at the same site of the farm.
