A year of good scenery must be remembered, the most orange-yellow-orange-green time. In the Hongjiang orange planting base in Yangqiao Town, Boluo County, more than 10 acres of Hongjiang oranges have entered the picking period, and the orange orchard has ushered in the most lively time of the year.
On November 19, in the Hongjiang orange planting base in Yangqiao Town, fruit trees were arranged in an orderly manner in the garden, and the round, full, orange-green fruits were hanging all over the branches, which looked very attractive under the sun. When the breeze blows, a unique fragrance of oranges suddenly comes to the nose.
On the same day, the base welcomed the first batch of visitors to open the garden. "There's a lot of orange juice here and it tastes good." Mr. Gao, a tourist, and a few friends met at the base to experience picking, "The on-site picking is full of fun, and we also have to order some to take back to taste." ”
According to Zhu Yuncai, the person in charge of the orange orchard, the base has planted more than 10 acres of red river oranges, which have entered the picking period, and the picking can last for about a month. Affected by the weather, this year's Hongjiang oranges ripen later than in previous years, but the hanging fruit situation is quite ideal, "the output is expected to reach 30,000 jin, and the output value is about 150,000." ”
It is reported that Yangqiao Town, formerly known as "Yangcun Overseas Chinese Citrus Farm", is known as "Asia's largest citrus professional farm". In the late 90s of the 20th century, due to the devastating blow of the second yellow dragon disease, the citrus field finally ended in decline. In 2017, Zhu Yuncai decided to replant Hongjiang oranges in Yangqiao, and with the help and technical support of old technicians, the oranges finally planted had thin and sweet skins, which were widely praised by tourists.
"Eat the taste of our childhood." Ms. Zhang, a native of Yangqiao, came to pick them once before the garden opened, saying that when she was a child, she used to eat locally grown oranges, and now, the oranges grown at the base are sweet and delicious, and the mouth is slagging, reminiscent of childhood memories.
At present, in addition to entering the garden to pick, Zhu Yuncai also sells through WeChat, mini programs and other platforms, you can contact the experience picking or buy online, (telephone: 13288161438; Address: Boluo County Yangqiao Town Caiji Orange Garden)
