Egg collecting experience
Newborn"Warm Eggs"I'm so excited!
A new egg-gathering experience facility has opened. The concept is to make egg-gathering a more fun and educational experience, and the name has been changed to "Egg School" to reflect this idea.
The "egg-gathering experience" itself is a rare program nationwide, but in addition, the "Egg School" chicken coop has 34 Q&A boards as an element of "learning," and is designed so that both children and adults can learn while having fun, from simple questions to more specialized ones. It is filled with the hope that people will learn more about chickens and eggs, and about the farming practices at Ark Tategamori.

Animal contact experience
At Ark Tategamori Farm, you can interact with over 10 kinds of animals, including chickens, goats, sheep, and ponies. On the vast 100-hectare site, the animals are raised in an environment that allows them to live as close to nature as possible. Come and experience interacting with the animals who live so freely.
※ please note
Since they are living creatures, there are times when they are in a good mood and times when they are in a bad mood. Please be careful when interacting with the animals so that you don't get bitten and get hurt.

chicken
Chickens run around energetically in a vast ranch surrounded by nature. "Mukashi-tamago" is born in a carefree everyday life. In the "egg picking" experience, you can feel the warmth of the life that is born in your hands. (Held on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays. Reservations required for groups of 5 or more on weekdays.)
sheep
About 300 "Suffolk breeds" live on the spacious ranch. It is known as a breed that produces high-quality lamb/hogget meat with early ripening and early fertilization. Birth period is from January to March. Shave before summer.
pony
"Pony" is a general term for horses that are less than 147cm tall at the shoulder. Currently, the ponies live at Wanpaku Square.
other animals
We raise rabbits and many other animals in our "Animal House."
About raising pigs
Ark Tategamori was founded in the pig farming industry, and currently produces pork at five farms. We used to raise pigs pasturage on this ranch, but now we have no choice but to stop raising pigs and events on our premises for epidemic prevention reasons. The staff are also looking forward to the day when we can interact with the pigs again.
Feeding experience
Animal feed vending machines are installed at five locations on the ranch. Since it is a food for general herbivores, it can be given to animals other than birds in the farm. The food is in the form of pellets (lumps), and the skin of the monaka can be given to the animals, so you can enjoy hygienic and eco-friendly feeding without getting your hands dirty or producing garbage.
