Tomita Farm gained recognition among tourists in 1976 when its lavender fields were featured in JR calendars across Japan. This exposure gradually attracted visitors to the farm.

The Tomita Farm map from the farm's website, which was obtained in 2016, has been updated in 2017.

The most notable change is the addition of the Hilltop Field, a field of red California poppies.

Traditional Lavender Field

One of the oldest lavender fields in Japan, this is where Farm Tomita first cultivated lavender. This field was chosen as the location for a photo calendar produced by Japan National Railways (now Japan Railway Company), marking the beginning of Furano's lavender fields becoming known nationwide.

A hike to the top of the hill offers breathtaking panoramic views. Beyond the lavender swaying in the breeze, the rolling countryside of the Furano Valley and the Tokachidake Mountains stretch out before you.

The best time to see lavender in bloom at Traditional Lavender Field is from early to mid-July.

The history of Farm Tomita began in 1897 (Meiji 30) when Tokuma Tomita began cultivating the barren land of Nakafurano. Tokuma Tomita was the grandfather of Tadao Tomita, who opened the lavender farm in 1970. The total lavender planting area was 230 hectares, but the planting area decreased thereafter due to the decline in lavender production for perfume caused by the import of cheap perfumes. In 1976, the lavender fields of Farm Tomita were featured in the JR calendar throughout Japan, and tourists began to visit the farm one by one. In 1980, the farm launched the production of original lavender essential oil. Fresh lavender was put into a self-designed distillery. Tadao extracted about 50 cc of oil per distillation. In 1984, "Furano", the first perfume, was produced. In 1987, the production of the first original bath soap was launched. In 1990, Farm Tomita's essential oil won the "Lavender Perfume Fair" in France. In 1993, Hanabito House was opened. In 1998, Tomita Lavender Museum was opened. In 2000, The greenhouse was opened. In 2003, Dried Flower House was opened. In 2008, Lavender East was opened. In 2013, Gallery Fleur was opened.
