The 4th Blue Indigo Cultural Picking Festival of Huabao Agriculture attracts tourists from all over the country
"Agate purple tomato full of branches, the strange fruit of the world lies in the green fang", describes the appearance of the blue indigo fruit when ripe. At present, it is the peak season of blue indigo picking, and the magnificent forest farm Green Blue Indigo Ecological Park in Boli County breaks the previous silence and becomes lively. Tourists from Zhengzhou in Henan, Dalian in Liaoning, Changchun in Jilin, Daqing in Heilongjiang and other places gather here to happily pick blue indigo fruits that are as blue as agate and sweet and sour. While picking, they cheered childlike, "The grass here smells so fragrant, the fruit here melts in the mouth, and the temperature here is comfortable..." Recently, the 4th Blue Indigo Cultural Picking Festival of Huabao Agriculture sponsored by the Union of Boli County Supply and Marketing Cooperatives was launched, attracting more than 1,000 tourists from all over the country to share the idyllic scenery and harvest joy.
Blue indigo fruit, commonly known as "mountain eggplant", is rich in 18 kinds of amino acids and trace elements, and the anthocyanin content is about 10 times that of blueberry. Among the many small berries, blue indigo is among the best for antioxidant properties. In 2019, the European Union has included indigo as a new resource food, which is currently a berry with great development potential. Boli County is the richest existing resources, the largest area and the best quality origin of wild indigo in the world, and has the reputation of "the hometown of blue indigo".
In order to make blue indigo become the leading industry of Fuminxing County, Boli County relies on the resource advantages of blue indigo fruit and cooperates with Heilongjiang University and Northeast Agricultural University in terms of variety improvement, product processing and marketing to develop the blue indigo ecological estate model, strengthen the construction of blue indigo tourism industry, expand the development path of blue indigo industry brand, improve the brand benefit of blue indigo industry, promote agricultural efficiency farmers to increase income, and help rural revitalization.
The successful holding of this picking festival has effectively promoted the healthy and orderly development of the blue indigo industry, enhanced the brand value and influence of blue indigo in Boli County, and expanded a new path for the development of the blue indigo fruit ecological tourism, leisure picking, cultural inheritance and other industries in Boli County.
Heilongjiang Huabao Agricultural Development Co., Ltd., which settled in Boli County, specializes in the blue indigo industry, is committed to the development of the whole chain of the blue indigo industry, and has many user groups throughout the country. Huabao Agriculture carefully organizes and uses tourist buses to bring tourists to the green water and green mountains, so that tourists can get close to nature and taste the sweetness of blue indigo fruit in the planting base. Most of the tourists are middle-aged and elderly, including many people in their 80s. They picked berries with gusto, took pictures, and laughter erupted from time to time in the valley. "I came from Zhangjiakou, Hebei Province, and the fruit I picked came to my mouth, and the taste was very unique. I brought my daughter with me so that she could experience the rare fruits of the cold black soil for herself. I also want to bring these fruits back to my hometown so that my relatives can also taste the indigo fruit and tell them about the benefits of eating it. Today, so many friends from all over the country came to participate in the 4th Blue Indigo Cultural Picking Festival of Huabao Agriculture, and everyone gathered here with a very happy mood. Tourist Sun Yanfeng said.
