Autumn brings seasonal specialties like pumpkin pudding, pumpkin cheesecake, and chestnut roll cakes\u2014all must-tries for anyone with a sweet tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Furano Marche is a local favorite for food lovers. The farmers\u2019 market offers fresh, seasonal produce with shipping services available for travelers. In autumn, don\u2019t miss limited-edition treats like sweet potato soft-serve and pumpkin gelato. Local potato chips, branded Furano-chi<\/em>, are also a classic take-home snack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Known as a winery, Tada Farm also produces outstanding juices. Their Senryo Pear Juice<\/em>, made from 110-year-old pear trees, and carrot juice harvested from summer to fall, are both cherished as unique, high-quality gifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Biei is one of Japan\u2019s top potato-producing regions, with many farms supplying major snack companies. In autumn, the fields are filled with colorful varieties\u2014pink, purple, yellow\u2014and visitors can try harvesting them by hand. The experience is complete with freshly made jaga-butter<\/em> (butter potatoes) enjoyed on the spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In autumn, Jersey cow milk becomes especially rich and flavorful. At Farms Chiyoda, visitors can try hands-on milking, and even make butter or ice cream using fresh milk. The farm\u2019s location also offers sweeping views of Biei\u2019s rolling hills and the Tokachi mountain range\u2014an unforgettable setting for a countryside experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n About 90 minutes from Furano, Ikeda Farm offers the rare opportunity to harvest Hokkaido-grown chestnuts, which are seldom sold on the market. With around 700 naturally grown trees, the experience feels both authentic and special. Guests can roast their freshly gathered chestnuts in a Dutch oven, enjoying them warm and aromatic on site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Held in early September at Furano Station Park, this festival celebrates the grape harvest. Highlights include the traditional grape-stomping experience, tastings of freshly pressed wines and juices, and even grape-picking activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the last Sunday of September, the Furano Cheese Factory hosts this popular event. Visitors can sample dishes made with locally produced cheese and butter, including wood-fired pizza, rich ice cream, and even a rare red wine-infused cheese. Families can also enjoy pony rides and other fun activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Every October, the Furano Harvest Festival takes place in Rokugo, at the famous house from the TV drama Kita no Kuni Kara<\/em>. The festival celebrates local food and community spirit with activities like quiz contests, log-cutting competitions, and pumpkin weight-guessing games. Fresh produce and local dishes are also available at the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n With golden wheat fields, rolling hills painted in autumn colors, and a bounty of seasonal produce, Furano and Biei are at their most abundant in fall.
