On the west side of the town of Ishikawa, along Pref. Route 11 you can find Gō Takashi Orchards, a producer of cherries, peaches, apples, chestnuts, and plums, to name a few. From their orchard, stretching far and wide, you can admire the impressive Nasu mountain range, and the wide open view of the surrounding rice fields is striking. At this well-kept orchard, why not enjoy a fantastic lunch underneath the overarching cherries? In charge of the meal is a chef in whom co-owner of the orchard Mieko Gō places a great deal of trust; chef Ono of the Farm Restaurant Sato-no-Cafe in Ishikawa Town. This is set to be a fresh, new edition of FoodCamp, thanks to the close relationship between a producer and chef who know everything Ishikawa has to offer!
