The experience begins at the Shimonita Town Tourism Association inside "Roadside Station Shimonita (Michi-no-Eki Shimonita)", moves to the tourist farm "SHIMONITA Mojo Farm", and begins after a lecture on Shimonita leeks and an explanation of harvesting methods. The experience lasts about 60 minutes and includes 5 harvested Shimonita leeks, a take-home bag, gloves, shoe covers, insurance, and a special treat. The fee is 3,300 yen (3,000 yen base price plus 300 yen consumption tax) for both adults and children.
