What other travelers are saying about Farm Tomita (Lavender Farms)
Unforgettable experience so many beautiful flower fields. The lavender hasn't bloomed yet but many other bright and colourful flowers. A lot of butterflies and dragonflies for kids to chase. Many local produce. The melon ice cream was so good. Too bad the corn was unavailable.
Beautiful flower gardens, free of charge, but not the best place to take pictures with the flowers. I would recommend going to "Panoramic Flower Gardens Shikisai-no-oka" instead for photo-taking. What's good was that there were lavender and melon soft serve ice cream, as well as proper meals within the farm area. I quite enjoyed the lavender ice cream. Worth a try! 🪻
This is one of the famous flower farms in Furano, particularly known for its lavender. That being said, the place is crowded with tourists, but you can still capture nice photos if you find the right angle. Free entrance and free parking.
There are about 6-7 sections of flower fields to visit, so be sure to check out the farm’s map. I visited on 31 July 2024, and most of the lavender had already been harvested. There are also many shops selling snacks and souvenirs.
All in all, it's a must-stop during the flowering season when you visit Hokkaido, though the scale is actually smaller than I expected.
We went in early July and the flowers were blooming beautifully. There's the lavender field, but there are also other pretty flowers to look at. Do allocate time to shop as there are many shops selling things to eat, drink, and buy home. The melon jam is great!
For melon products, there is a big building with melon signages right next to the farm. The melon soft serve here was fantastic, but the melon drink tasted too sweet and syrup-y for my liking. There is a counter to return your trash from the specific store where you bought from.
I got blown away by the beauty of this place! The area is so well maintained and there are so many places you can get the perfect picture. You can learn how to make perfume, eat a meal, sip a drink or go shopping for local produce. There is an amazing dried flower shop!!!! The place is so popular though so there are tourists at every turn. So happy that it is free to enter!!!
