Blueberries, known as the "king of berries", are rich in vitamins, anthocyanins, and other nutrients beneficial for vision, the immune system, and overall health. Their delightful taste has made them highly popular. In March next year, the blueberry farm will allow people to pick the berries themselves.

Leveraging the picturesque Maofeng Mountain Scenic Area and the surrounding pristine environment, the farm plans to introduce family-friendly activities to attract more visitors. Once operational, it will integrate the sale of organic farm products like native pigs and chickens to promote the integrated development of the local agri-tourism economy.
