The field |
|
|
The strawberry saplings are planted on the higher level of ground, commonly called the "bed". It is approximately one foot higher than the walking path. The width measures one and a half feet. The ground is muddy and therefore please have caution when walking in the field. Also, high heels should not be worn. |

|
The Picking |
|
   |
|
|
It's quite easy. Please refer to the picture above. You just take the strawberry
and pull the berry from the stem lightly, and the berry is come from the
stem. If you pull the strawberry with direct force, it will come with the
plant of the strawberry. The plant of the strawberry is so sensitive. |
|
|
|
|
The Choosing |
|
 You are looking for a red strawberry. It will be red from top to bottom. There will be dozens of strawberries on each plant; size is not a major role in picking a strawberry. The more red the berry, the sweeter and delicious it will be. In most cases, it is the small dark red strawberry that is better than the large one. |

|

From Late January to Late Feburuary, it is high season for strawberry picking
in Sammu City. If you come to our field in the weekend, you should better
come in the morning. If not, you will miss the strawberries. or please

Specification of our strawberries |
|
|
 |
Really delicious
All of 4 variety of strawberry have different flavor abd sweetness. Please
compare as much as you can. You will find the fine taste of these berries.
And you will be master of strawberries for sure! We believe you don't need
sugar and milk for additional sweetness for the berries. |
 |
Pollination with honey bees
You will find a lot of haoney bees flying in the fields. Why don't you
watch carefully what they do on the flower. |
 |
Exterminate bugs with natural enemy
We are trying not to use pestiside for killing bags aggressively. It costs us a lot of maney for it. But the result is getting better. Most of customer eat strawberries without washing, so we would like keep challenging the method.
|
 |
Took long time to be red
You will find small and big size of strawberries in the field. Please compare of these. Most important thing is "more red is sweeter". |
