Autumn Trip
Fall Harvest in Oct/Nov
The Autumn Fall Harvest Trip is one of the customer favorites. On this trip, the FFP team joins Shintaro Koi Farm as they harvest their mud pond ponds in the mountains of Niigata, Japan. This is a VERY popular trip and gets booked up quickly. Due to the FFP Team's long standing relationship with the breeders, we are able to get our clients into the mud ponds to help with the harvest!
With this exclusive opportunity, be ready to put on your waders to help pull the ponds and extract the koi and get them safely to the koi houses for the winter season.
Some of the highlights of the Fall Harvest Trip are the Shintaro Number 1 Harvest where the team extracts Jumbo Koi and The Matsunosuke Number 1 Harvest which is exclusive to Koi Trips.
During this trip, you will also go to the Nagaoka Koi Show, where you will have an intimate party with the top breeders in Japan.
To enjoy the full experience of the fall harvest trip, a seven day trip is always recommended. Often times we will be accompanied by other koi hobbyists from other countries and it is great to connect with the larger koi community on these trips.
Weather: Expect some light rain some days , but in general the temperatures are mild.
