About this event

This tour is a 2-day, 1-night program aimed at people considering relocation, allowing them to experience the charms of the northern region of Fukushima Prefecture with all five senses. It is packed with useful information for considering relocation, such as rice harvesting and agricultural experiences where you can experience the autumn harvest, interactions with senior relocatees and veteran farmers, and explanations of relocation support measures. Local university students will also accompany the tour, not only guiding the charms of the visited places, but also conveying the realistic atmosphere of life in Fukushima. In the Kenpoku (northern) region, which is the setting for a colorful life woven by abundant food and nature, you can experience seasonal delights such as Hanamiyama in spring, mountain climbing and orchards in summer, autumn foliage viewing and rural scenery in autumn, and skiing or snowboarding in winter. In this particular edition set in Nihonmatsu City, Motomiya City, and Otama Village, the program allows you to closely feel the producers' passion and unique local charms through farming experiences, facility tours, and meals featuring local ingredients nurtured by abundant nature. Hands-on rice ball making, koji dressing making, and sake tasting are also scheduled, providing a valuable opportunity to gain real information about life through interactions with locals that cannot be found online.
