Mogberry Strawberry Picking
About this event
What this is
Mogberry Strawberry Picking is a seasonal agricultural tourism experience in Hiroshima where visitors harvest strawberries directly from greenhouse farms. Strawberry picking (ichigo-gari) is a popular winter and spring activity across Japan, with Hiroshima Prefecture producing several premium varieties including the locally developed Akihime and Benihoppe cultivars. Most facilities operate on all-you-can-eat models within time limits, allowing guests to sample fruit at peak ripeness. The practice supports local agriculture while offering hands-on exposure to Japan's meticulous fruit cultivation standards.
Who should go
This activity suits families with children, couples seeking a casual outing, and food enthusiasts interested in Japanese agricultural practices. The atmosphere is relaxed and informal, typically taking place in climate-controlled greenhouses with rows of elevated strawberry plants for easy picking. Wear comfortable shoes and arrive early in the session for the best berry selection, as the ripest fruit gets picked quickly.
