Mother Farm

Meet friendly farm animals like sheep, cows, pigs, goats and donkeys roaming around the fields of Mother Farm in Chiba. You can pet and feed the animals in selected areas of the park and participate in activities like horseback riding. For first-timers, we recommend taking the Mother Farm Tour DX (adults ¥1,600, children ¥900), where you’ll ride a tractor train through the meadowlands, giving you a fantastic view of Tokyo Bay. The tour is the only way to feed the adorable alpacas and watch the sheep-herding up close. Don’t worry if it rains – the farm has plenty of indoor activities, too, like milking dairy cows, sheep-sheering demonstrations, and cooking workshops where you can make cheese, ice cream and butter from fresh milk. The animals may be the main attraction, but Mother Farm also offers fruit picking (strawberries from January to May), bungee jumping, craft workshops, and a flower field that’s open all year round.
