This time, I spent some quality, cuddly time with plenty of animals at a farm rich in nature!
This is "Yamachibi Farm," located in Saijo City, Ehime Prefecture.
Many Ehime locals might be thinking, "Wait a minute, isn't this...?"
That's right—this is the site where the famous "Ichikura Farm" (Ichikura no Mori) used to be!
At this spacious farm—where admission is free, by the way—animals like goats, ponies, Call ducks, dogs, cats, and chickens roam almost entirely free, living happy, relaxed lives.
As soon as we stepped inside, they all swarmed around to give us a big, enthusiastic welcome!
You simply have to experience the incredibly friendly dogs—it’s a level of up-close interaction you won't find anywhere else!
We’re also sharing some exciting updates on upcoming events, such as a "Pizza & Beer Garden" party and horseback riding experiences hosted by Shimanto Horse Farm, as well as redevelopment plans for vacation rentals and other facilities led by the Ace Housing Group.
Be sure to read all the way to the end!
