合同会社 横浜旬・菜・果

 合同会社 横浜 旬・菜・果(代表・料理研究家 市原由貴子)は、“梅のまち杉田” 実行委員会の協力で、訪日外国人むけに、幻の杉田梅林・杉田梅にちなんだ体験プログラムを開始します。

 磯子区杉田は、天正年間(1573~92年)杉田村一帯の領主だった間宮信繋が、農地に適さないこの地にたくさんの梅を植えました。その後1600年代には3万6千株以上になり、江戸にも知られた梅の名所として多くの観梅客が訪れました。
初代歌川広重は、浮世絵「武州杉田の梅林」に当時の観梅の様子を描いており、今でも妙法寺に僅かに面影が残っています。

この杉田梅という地域資源を活用して、杉田梅林の賑い復興・地域活性化を目的に、2023年2月に杉田梅まつりを100年ぶりに開催し、多くの方にお越し頂きました。
2024年は、2月17日(土)~18(日)に第2回梅まつりを開催すると共に、訪日外国人むけの体験プログラムを実施します。

東京から電車で50分、横浜から20分!妙法寺で日本文化体験、農園レストランで杉田梅を使った料理体験、当時の賑いを横浜芸者が唄と踊りで再現する杉田梅まつり。ぜひ、“梅のまち”杉田にお越し下さい。

Sugita, the town of plum blossoms”

Visitors to Japan can now purchase a traditional Japanese cultural experience and a cooking experience using Sugita plums in Yokohama!


Yokohama Shunsaika(CEO and culinary researcher/Yukiko Ms.Ichihara)has started selling experience programs for foreign visitors in collaboration with “Sugita,the town of plum blossoms” executive committee. These programs include courses on enjoying Edo period Japanese culture expressed in ukiyo-e and Japanese cultural cooking using Sugita plums.


The Sugita of old (currently Isogo Ward, Yokohama City) had soil unsuitable for farming grain or vegetables. The lord of Sugita, Nobushige Mamiya, created a Plum Groves by planting plum trees which match warm climates between 1573 and 1592. The plums harvested from this forest were pickled and were used as a preserved food during battles. The Plum Groves of Sugita which had over 36,000 plum trees in the Edo Period, became famous in Japan, and became a staple plum blossom viewing spot in the Kanto Region.

The Plum Groves of Sugita was illustrated by artists such as Hiroshige Utagawa from the Edo to Meiji Period. The vestiges of the plum grove still remain slightly at Myoho-ji Temple even now.


Utilizing the unique historical and food culture resources of the region called Sugita Plums, the Plum Groves of Sugita aims to revive the area and promote regional revitalization as “Sugitaa,the town of plum blossoms”. In February 2023, “Sugita Plum Festival” was held for the first time in 100 years, and many people visited”.next year's event will be held on Sat 17 ~ Sun 18 February 2024.


A 50-minute train ride from Tokyo, and a 20-minute train ride from Yokohama! There are cooking workshops using the elusive Sugita Plums, and restaurant meals that can be enjoyed surrounded by a garden. Furthermore, there is even an event where Yokohama geisha perform songs and dances, and recreate the liveliness of the Edo Period as it is depicted in the woodblock prints!
