A parking lot is free of charge.

The farm garden is divided into 10 segments such as Garden of Gnome (ノームの庭), Pathway of White Birch (白樺の小道), Mirror Border (ミラーボーダー), Purple Walk (パープルウォーク), Circle Border (サークルボーダー), Long Border (ロングボーダー), Mother's Garden (マザーズガーデン), Garden with Hearing Voice of Tree (木の声が聞こえる庭), Mt.

Red bricks and planted colorful flowers unorderly are stylish, and the special atmosphere like a picture book and can be enjoyed at the Garden of Gnome especially. By the way, each flowers purposely do not have name plates to value a natural atmosphere of the garden. Therefore the flowers are not in full bloom always, and the garden has a season with a lot of the flowers or a season with few flowers throughout the year. Some stone statues of the gnome and stone statues of bear and so on are set out hiddenly on the site, so finding those is fun.
