BE KOBE ORGANIC DAY at Aina Satoyama Park 2026

Why You Should Visit

A day devoted to organic food, hosted by the KOBE Organic Promotion Council (Kobe City, local organic farming groups and JA Hyogo Rokko). Now in its fourth year. Set among the thatched farmhouses and terraced rice paddies of Aina Satoyama Park, it brings farmers selling organic produce directly, a marché of food booths, and a series of talks on Kobe's organic farming and school meals. Entry is free, and park admission is waived for the day. A good fit if you want to buy vegetables straight from the growers or spend a relaxed day in the countryside with family.
