The Benihoppe variety, known as the "sun's strawberry," is large, sweet, and full-bodied, with a moderate sourness that will make you addicted. The producers have arrived at a unique cultivation method after many years of trial and error, and the top quality strawberries are grown under strict management, and you can enjoy the sweet aroma to your heart's content. After picking strawberries, you can also interact with the animals on the vast grounds! Awaji Country Garden is located on a small hilltop in the northern part of Awaji Island. It is located in a great location where you can see the Akashi Strait and Akashi Kaikyo Bridge below, as well as the Kobe cityscape on the opposite bank. In two vinyl greenhouses in one corner of the vast grounds, there are countless large, ripe, bright red strawberries that are ready to be eaten. The Benihoppe variety, known as the "sun's strawberry," is sweet, full-bodied, with a moderate sourness that will make you addicted, and the producers' many years of hard work have improved the quality to its current level. Inside one greenhouse, there are 12 rows of growing shelves over 20 meters long, with about 2,500 seedlings growing healthy and with their leaves spread wide. Just by looking at the healthy seedlings, which are thoroughly managed based on data accumulated over many years of experience and grown using a painstaking cultivation method, you can see how much care and attention they have been given. The strawberries grown in this greenhouse are large, even at a standard size of 2L, but what is particularly noteworthy are the extra-large strawberries that are packed and sold individually as luxury gifts. These are about the size of a small peach and are priced at over 500 yen each! Participants can taste strawberries of the exact same quality through the strawberry picking experience. It may also be interesting to look for extra-large strawberries that are shipped as gifts. The joy of finding them is even greater! The cultivation method in the greenhouse is the nowadays mainstream method of raising the cultivation shelves about one meter above the ground, making it easy for adults and children alike to reach and pick the strawberries without having to assume an awkward position. Surrounded by the sweet aroma that fills the greenhouse, please enjoy to your heart's content the strawberries grown by our hard-working staff who strive to make our customers "delicious, fun, and happy."

The Daigenta area of Yuzawa Town, where the retreat takes place, is named after its symbol, Mt. Daigenta (1598 meters above sea level). This mountain is also called the Matterhorn of the East because of its shape. At the foot of the mountain is Lake Daigenta, which was formed by damming the Daigenta River, and once prevented the great floods that brought great hardship to the area. The area is now a popular spot for walking and paddle sports. The abundant local water, which seeps into the ground from melting snow, irrigates the people and the land, and nourishes the delicious vegetables and rice grown here. The retreat aims to allow you to experience with all five senses the rich history of this fascinating area, the lives of the people, the beauty of nature, and the importance of "water" as an essential part of human life, to return to your origins and look at what is truly important to you.
