Lovely place in a quiet neighborhood. The surrounding scenery is great too, with this basin that Yamanashishi is in being surrounded by gorgeous mountains. The work was very relaxed, the grapes and meals were quite tasty and the people lovely! Happy to have gotten to spend some time here!

It was my first experience as a volunteer and it was very good! Emiko is an inspiration, she is very chill and kind! The work was a little monotonous but easy and you can talk or listen to music. If we ever wanted to do something Emiko usually made it possible. Food is provided from another volunteer on workdays. The volunteers have their own house and everyone had to make it work together so you can really get in contact with others easily. Altogether it was a great stay! I already miss it!

I liked this experience picking momos, summer is really hot but the work was easy for the volunteers and you can eat the farm or grapes thank you for that. Also the 3 meals were very delicious. I also loved the bicycle to see around .

The farm was my first volunteering experience through worldpackers and it has set a high bar to beat. From the moment Emiko and her Husband picked me up from the station and took me to their home, I was immediately warmly welcomed by the volunteers who had all just finished having dinner together. Emiko is a kind, friendly and bubbly host who makes you feel warm and welcome at all times. The work I did was an early start at 5am, helping pick peaches and carry heavy buckets on the farm, which kept me in shape and I felt like I was contributing to a team. Thank you so much KPF! ❤️🍑
