Located along a road near Oizumi Gakuen-cho, Nerima City, close to Ishigamigawa, is a farm shop. This farm is the only one in the 23 wards of Tokyo, and they sell ice cream made from milk freshly squeezed at the farm, with no artificial flavors. To get there, you can take a bus north from Oizumi Gakuen Station, turn left at Ishigamigawa, and walk through a narrow alley to reach the farm. They have a variety of ice cream flavors for 350 yen each, but the milk flavor is recommended. The ice cream is rich in milk flavor and has a creamy texture. It's a nice treat to enjoy in the nearby park. After that, the reviewer visited a winery nearby.

This is a review of an ice cream shop located at the "Koizumi Farm". It is about a 10-minute walk from Oizumi Gakuen Station (Seibu Ikebukuro Line). The route from the station to the shop is a bit confusing as there are not many landmarks along the way. The farm is located in a residential area and is the only farm within the 23 wards of Tokyo. They raise dairy cows at this farm. Across the road from the farm, there is a small shop located on the premises of a private house (presumably belonging to the farm). At this shop, you can purchase ice cream made from the milk produced at Koizumi Farm. The ice cream is made elsewhere, not at the farm itself. There are various flavors of ice cream available, all of which have a refreshing and smooth texture. The flavors are not overly rich, so those who prefer lighter ice cream may enjoy them. The matcha flavor, for example, is not too bitter and is easy to eat. These ice creams are perfect for dessert after a heavy meal. Although there is information online about being able to visit the farm, as of 2019, it is not possible to tour the dairy cow barn. However, visitors can see the calves in a separate area.

It's a small farm. I tried the chocolate chip ice cream, but it felt more like sherbet and lacked richness. The freshly squeezed ice cream seems to be the most popular, but it's uncertain when it will be available. It might be worth a visit once, but that's about it. (^_^;)

【Visit Motive】I visited because I was nearby and was curious to check out the only ranch in Tokyo. 【Atmosphere】The store is located 9 minutes from the station. There is parking space for 5 cars next to the farm. On one side of the store, there is a farm with cows, and on the other side is the owner's house, where they sell ice cream by the roadside. 【Taste】They normally have matcha, milk, milk tea, and cocoa flavors, but today they were out of milk, so I ordered the following. There are chairs and tables set up next to the farm, so I enjoyed my ice cream while watching the cows. (They also offer agricultural experiences for children) - Matcha (Ice Cream) 350 yen: It is a light green ice cream. It was very hard straight out of the freezer, but it had a mild matcha flavor. It wasn't very strong, but it was still enjoyable. It provided a moment of refreshment. (3.0 out of 5) - Milk Tea (Ice Cream) 350 yen: It is a light brown ice cream. It was very hard straight out of the freezer, but it had a mild milk tea flavor. It wasn't very strong, but it was still enjoyable. It provided a moment of refreshment. (3.0 out of 5) 【Side Note】Depending on the wind direction, you may occasionally catch a whiff of the typical smell of a farm. 【Overall】It could be a good conversation starter...

After the Chiba Udon Tour, we took a side road off the Outer Ring Oizumi exit. I knew about it, but... The smell was quite strong at times, haha. It was hot, so I decided to stop and buy some ice cream.~・~ Photo ~・~ Freshly squeezed ice cream for 350 yen. It's a bit pricey... The flavor is refreshing. I wanted to try a richer flavor, haha.

A small ranch suddenly appeared in the residential area of Daizawa Gakuen. Time seemed to flow differently there, creating a nostalgic atmosphere as I gazed at the cows and took a moment to relax. Ah, I don't feel like working... Wait! My goal is to get some ice cream. To wake up my slightly trippy mind, I decided to stop by the ice cream shop along the street, but no one was there. I asked the man at the ranch, and he told me to press the intercom at the house next to the shop, which was their home. The shop was run by a family. When I returned to the shop and was about to press the intercom, an old lady came out of the house. "You want some ice cream? It's hot, isn't it?" The old-fashioned atmosphere, the old lady's smile, it was priceless. The ice cream cost 350 yen and was the size of a Haagen-Dazs. I chose the freshly squeezed milk flavor. It felt a bit pricey, but once I tasted it, I understood why. The texture was smooth like powder snow, and the refreshing milk flavor had a natural sweetness with a light aftertaste, which pleasantly cooled my body heated by the summer sun. I'll definitely come back. I want to visit this place again, to meet the nostalgic summer once more. It was a place that made me feel that way.

Unexpectedly, there is a ranch in Tokyo! And it's in one of the 23 wards! Located in Oizumi Gakuen, Nerima Ward, Koizumi Ranch has actual cows! I love the smell of a ranch. It's a bit of a walk from the station, but it's a nice stroll. You can even buy ice cream across the street. This time, I took it home with me. They have two flavors, salt and matcha. Both have a homemade, rustic feel that I really like. They also participate in events in Nerima Ward. I need to go visit the cows again soon!

I stopped by on my way back from Handmade Soba Muraki. It's about 800m from the station, and I was surprised to find a ranch in such a place! The cowshed looks quite worn out but has a charming atmosphere. Across from the cowshed, there is a prefabricated hut serving as a shop. Mr. Koizumi, who runs the ranch, is talking to a customer. Although there are ice cream and a sign outside, they only sell ice milk in cups. It's a type of ice cream with low milk fat content. There were various flavors available, but I chose freshly squeezed plain milk for now. I tried it at a table next to the cowshed. Coffee grounds were scattered around the cowshed to prevent any smell, as he mentioned. Because of this, there was no distinct smell of the cows, and it didn't feel out of place. However, the somewhat cluttered feeling bothered me a bit. Now, the ice milk itself had a rich taste of milk. It felt similar to condensed milk. With a lower milk fat content, it had a light taste that was somewhat nostalgic. It reminded me of the square ice cream bars I used to eat as a child. I'm curious about the other flavors, but I think the basic freshly squeezed milk is good. I would like to stop by again if I have the chance.

During the Golden Week holiday in May, I took care of my cousin's child and we visited the only ranch in the 23 wards located in Oizumi Gakuen. It's a small ranch, but there were quite a lot of cows. The child was very interested in the cows, but I think the ice cream here is better. You can buy ice cream right in front of the ranch. We got a ★Chocolate Chip★ and three cups of Milk ice cream. The child preferred the Chocolate Chip flavor. The Chocolate Chip ice cream has chocolate chips in milk-flavored ice cream. The Milk flavor had a strong taste of milk, despite its appearance. Eating ice cream while watching the cows on a sunny day is truly special.

When you think of a farm, I remember visiting one to draw when I was in elementary school, but this one doesn't smell at all. Maybe it's because it's surrounded by residential areas. It's said to be the only farm in the area, and I hope they do well. They also sell ice cream at the farm, so I tried some. They had ice cream, ice milk, and lacto ice, but they were only selling ice milk. I had the normal flavor, but they had about 8 flavors. It's not particularly outstanding, but it's nice to have ice cream from the best farm in the area. July 6, 2015

On this day, I went on a tour of Koizumi Farm with some friends and our kids. We arrived at the farm before 10 am, but the ice cream shop we were looking forward to was still closed. We passed the time at nearby commercial facilities and returned to the farm at 12 pm. Finally, we were able to get the ice cream we wanted. I bought the "Freshly Squeezed Milk" for 300 yen. We sat on a bench across from the shop to enjoy it. I had imagined a rich flavor from the name, but it was actually quite light. Since there were over 40 cows on the farm, I think it would be better to take it home and enjoy it there. Thank you for the meal.

It was the only ranch in the 23 wards, and I had passed by it many times and was curious. I took a break during a bike ride and saw several families with children enjoying the close-up view of the cows. I won't post it on food review sites, but I'll share a picture of a cow looking at the camera. The ice milk (freshly squeezed milk) for 300 yen has a refreshing taste. It's not as rich as regular milk, but has a subtle milk flavor with a hint of a good milk scent. They also had other flavors like matcha, chocolate chip, milk tea, and cream cheese that I would like to try.

Today, on my way back from a super sento in Tokorozawa, I decided to stop by a local dairy farm called Koizumi Farm. The street where the farm is located is one I pass by occasionally, but I never really paid much attention to it before. This time, coming back from a hot bath and with the temperature at 35 degrees, it seemed like the perfect time to visit. The farm is said to be the only one in Tokyo, but unfortunately due to a recent outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease, the cowshed was off-limits. So, I could only observe from a table in front of the cowshed. The shop is located in a prefab hut on the other side of the road. Unfortunately, they didn't sell milk, only ice cream. I chose vanilla and cream cheese flavors, each priced at 300 yen. - Vanilla Ice Cream: It was labeled as ice milk, and the taste was not as rich as I expected. It had a light flavor, which was a bit disappointing. There was a slightly icy texture while eating it. Rating: 2 out of 5. - Cream Cheese Ice Cream: As expected from cream cheese, it had a creamy texture and was more enjoyable than the vanilla. However, it also had that icy texture. Rating: 3.2 out of 5. Overall, as it is lacto ice cream, it lacked the richness of farm ice cream. It didn't quite match my taste preferences. For those who prefer a lighter flavor, it might be worth a try.

As the last existing ranch in the 23 wards of Tokyo, Koizumi Ranch has been a topic of discussion in newspapers and on the radio. For a detailed explanation of this place, please refer to the review by Osumo3. Located about 5 minutes north of Oizumi Gakuen Station on the Seibu Ikebukuro Line. Cross a small bridge over a stream, turn right, and you'll start to catch a faint scent of the ranch. In a place surrounded by residential homes, you might wonder if there's really a ranch here. But modestly tucked away, Koizumi Ranch exists. Next to the parking lot, you'll see a few tables where families visiting the ranch are chatting. They have around 40 dairy cows, and the milk extracted here is used as raw material for dairy products. Across the road from the ranch, there is a prefab shop selling ice milk made from their milk. "It would be nice if we could sell milk directly, but the regulations are strict, so it's not possible," said the second-generation owner, Koizumi Koshichi, who sold us the ice cream at the shop. When asked if we came all the way to buy it, we mentioned we cycled about 20 minutes to get there, and he politely thanked us. Of course, when you take it home, they pack it in a cooler bag with ice packs. About 10 years ago, they faced many complaints from the neighborhood due to the smell of the cows, but things have gradually changed since the 21st century. Now, the ranch is seen as a live teaching material for environmental education in the community, attracting many visitors. "Many people come here today," said the second-generation owner. It turns out, some of the families we saw chatting at the tables earlier were those visitors. Of course, they must have faced many challenges in the past, and even now, measures like odor control and disease prevention for the cows are quite challenging. But I truly respect their efforts to be recognized by the community and to receive support. Now, about the "ice milk" they sell here. With a milk fat content of 3.4% and non-fat milk solids of 8.4%, it doesn't qualify as "ice cream." They offer six flavors: fresh milk, matcha, cocoa, milk tea, cream cheese, and chocolate chip, all priced at 300 yen each. These are made by Mr. Hiroki Oki in Momokusa, Hino City, using their milk. If you order at the shop, they can also deliver to other regions by courier. As the sign at the shop says "gelato," the flavors are light and refreshing. The fresh milk ice cream truly tastes like "fresh milk." The cocoa flavor adds richness, while the milk tea flavor has a full-bodied taste. All of them have a smooth texture, light sweetness, and melt in your mouth with a clean aftertaste. In hot weather, you could easily eat two or three at once. Personally, I think the "fresh milk" flavor is the best. This would surely be appreciated as a gift for a family with children. This was a great find, thanks to Osumo3's review. This marks my 100th review. I chose this place to highlight their dedication to preserving the last ranch in the 23 wards. I sincerely thank all the readers and visitors who have supported me so far. I look forward to your continued support. m(__)m

The ranch in Tokyo is quite rare. They sell ice cream there, and there are various flavors available, but the freshly squeezed milk flavor is the best in my opinion. It has a smooth texture and a strong milk flavor. It's really refreshing and addictive. The aftertaste is also refreshing! It's a bit pricey at 300 yen per scoop, but it's delicious. The store is really small, so you might drive past it without noticing.

Located within walking distance from Oizumi Gakuen, not on a main street but on a relatively busy street with cars passing by, is Koizumi Bokujo San. It is nestled in a residential area with a lot of cows in the ranch. Across the street, there is a small hut selling ice cream. The cream cheese ice cream costs 300 yen. On the ranch side, there are tables and chairs where you can enjoy your ice cream. The ice cream is a pale pink color and the taste is not overly rich, but rather refreshing. When I was little, I remember there used to be a ranch with cows in Adachi Ward as well, but now it is gone and replaced by a building. It's wonderful to have a ranch within the 23 wards in this era.

The second-generation dairy farmer Koizumi and his wife, both 66 years old, along with their son, the third-generation owner, Katsuji, 38 years old, run the last remaining dairy farm in the 23 wards of Tokyo. The history of dairy farms in Tokyo dates back to the Meiji Restoration, where many former samurai residences were repurposed for dairy farming as a way to provide employment for unemployed warriors. In 1873, there were reportedly seven dairy farms in Tokyo. By the 1910s, there were around 3,000 cows being raised in the city. After World War II, dairy farming saw a decline in popularity, but in 1963, there were still around 420,000 dairy farms in Japan. The Koizumi dairy farm was established in 1935 by the first-generation owner, Koizumi Fujihachi, and currently houses 40 Holstein cows on a 700 square meter plot of land. In the 1940s, there were several dairy farms in Nerima Ward, but due to urbanization in the 1950s, many were closed down, leaving only one remaining dairy farm in the 23 wards of Tokyo. Katsuji, after graduating from high school, studied dairy farming in various locations, including Switzerland, and now focuses on running the farm without debt and engaging in community activities such as providing training for mentally disabled individuals and hosting school visits for children with emotional disorders. Since being certified as a "Dairy Education Farm" by the Central Dairy Farmers Council in 2002, the farm has been offering dairy farming experiences to local elementary school students. The farm's shop is located off Route 24 near the Kita-Sonoda intersection, with opening hours from 10:00 to around 20:00, and it offers homemade dairy products, including ice cream. The ice cream is made using the farm's own milk by a neighboring dairy farm and has been designated as a special product of Nerima Ward.
