The tea farm is located in a valley by the Ashitaka Mountain, to the southwest of the famous Mount Fuji. This protected area provides the ideal climate for the tea plants to grow, with plenty of fog and an optimal provision of water to the soil from the Sudo river, which passes through the valley. The farm has been able to avoid using chemical fertilisers and pesticides since 2003 thanks to these optimal growing conditions and their innovative farming practices. Instead, the farm utilises high-grade organic fertilisers such as kelp and buckwheat husks to optimise the quality of the soil and encourage the growth of healthy, nutrient-rich plants.
