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.

red deer

Descendants of deer flew in from Scotland in 1988. Its elegant appearance is loved as one of the symbols of the ranch. Autumn is the breeding season, and males use their horns as weapons to compete for the position of boss. From June to July, when the baby is born, cute fawns heal the hearts of those who see them.

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 in two locations.

other animals

We have rabbits and guinea pigs in our "animal house" and many other animals.

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.
