Wander the orange fields and encounter the golden yellow

Text/Pearl River Business Daily reporter Su Shuting

Near the Spring Festival, thousands of acres of orange fields in Chen Village transformed from lush to golden. The orange farmers loaded a pot full of fruitful oranges onto the boat, and the grass boat filled with oranges slowly sailed over the Chencun River. Recently, an orange boat water cruise organized by Chen Cun Town reproduced the scene of orange transportation in Chen Village in the past, which evoked the memories of the majority of orange farmers.

In the era when land transportation was not developed, Chen Cun relied on water to transport goods. At the end of each year, the flower oranges planted in Chen Village are transported by water to the Pearl River Delta and Hong Kong and Macao for sale. The river in Chen Village appears thousands of boats full of golden orange fruits, and it looks like a boat of gold drifting in the river, which is eye-catching.

With the continuous improvement of the road network, more and more freight cars have driven into the orange field, picked up the goods and left, and more oranges have been sent to all parts of the country at a faster speed. Crossing the orange fields, the opening of Foshan Metro Line 2 has made customers enter the orange fields and personally choose a pot of oranges to take home has become a new consumption model.

The orange is the auspicious tree for the Spring Festival in Chinese. In Guangdong, "swinging New Year flowers, swinging Oranges" is an indispensable Spring Festival custom for every household.

Society is developing, and the times are progressing. What has changed is the way that the new year oranges enter thousands of households from the continuous orange fields, and what has not changed is the beautiful message and ardent expectations for the new year when the citizens place the new year oranges during the Spring Festival.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and in the orange fields, the annual oranges carefully planted by orange farmers are growing happily. Take advantage of the weekend, it is better to have an encounter with the orange field, buy a pot of favorite oranges to put at home, and live a "orange" smooth 2022.
