We will catch the train to Yokoze and go to a nearby farm in Chichibu. When we arrive at the farm, we will pick the famous Japanese Kyohou: big, delicious, purple grapes that actually taste like "grape"!!! We can eat as many as we like while we are picking. We can also purchase, at a very reasonable price, more grapes to take home. We will have a barbecue lunch sitting under the grape trellis. After lunch, we will pick Shiitake mushrooms, and each person can take a bag home for no extra charge.

Reservations and ¥1500 deposit must be made on Thursday, September 10 at the TUCWS Open House. This non-refundable deposit is required to purchase a reserved-seat ticket for the outbound train.
