If you're looking for a fantastic day trip from Asahikawa, Tomita Farm should be high on your list. This 10-hectare lavender haven offers a serene escape with its stunningly arranged fields of purple blooms. The hills, adorned with meticulously manicured lavender, almost appear too perfect to be real.
Stroll along the charming birch-lined pathways that provide a cool, shaded route to the many lavender-themed gift shops, workshops, and cozy rest stops nestled within the gardens. At the workshops, you can witness the fascinating process of transforming freshly harvested lavender into a variety of products. From aromatic sachets to soothing oils, these make for both elegant gifts and delightful everyday items.
Sweet-toothed adventurers will rejoice at the café, where lavender-flavored soft-serve ice cream, pudding, and jelly await. There are also plenty of light lunch options to satisfy your hunger. The farm is a feast for the senses, offering not just visual splendor but also a taste of local flavor. Fun fact: Tomita Farm is one of the oldest lavender farms in Japan, established in 1958. It has played a crucial role in popularizing lavender cultivation in the country, making it a must-see for both history buffs and nature lovers.
