Makaino Farm

Makaino Farm sits on the Asagiri Plateau at Mount Fuji's base and houses different animal species including sheep, goats, cows, horses, and smaller creatures like hamsters in separate areas. The property combines pastures with pens and barn structures to create a working farm layout that accommodates both animal care and visitor activities.

The farm was founded in 1970 and grew into a major agricultural center over the following decades. Through more than five decades of operation, it became an important dairy producer for the region while adapting its practices.

Visitors interact directly with farm animals through feeding and handling activities that are part of daily farm life. This hands-on engagement with livestock offers a contrast to urban living and connects people to agricultural practices in a tangible way.

The farm is reachable by bus from Fujinomiya Station with a journey of about 30 minutes. It is best to arrive early enough to explore the different animal areas at your own pace and participate in farm activities without feeling rushed.

The facility offers a monthly ticket system where entrance passes remain valid for 30 days, allowing multiple visits within that window. This setup encourages return trips so visitors can experience the farm across different times or seasons.
