we love the U-pick place just down the road from us. It was closed last year due to the pandemic, but they are open now!

I love that! We have 3 plants too - my daughter's old teacher gave them to us about 3-4 years ago and they still produce berries! Oh I miss strawberry picking at the farm .. . the kids love that . . . oh my gosh we gobble away as we pick. Can you bring a water bottle with you as you pick to wash off the dust?

@marlina True. Ours allows some munching - as long as it's not a full meal (something about that on their sign). But you're right - should not take advantage.

I usually don't eat the strawberries while picking, not fair to the farmer

I wish we had something like that here but it's only I think in Baguio city where they grow commercially and I have not been up there for quite sometime.

@marlina they grow naturally I guess because the weather and climate there is much colder than most parts of the country, strawberries are not native to the Philippines but were brought by American missionaries. American engineers also built Baguio city to make it the summer capital of the country because gold, copper and silver was mined in Benguet province.

Our Philippines weather is so hot for growing strawberries. It is good that Baguio is coldenoughto have strawberries planted. Thank you @louievill

Harvesting strawberries sounds like fun but I've never done it. I do remember picking blackberries when I was a kid and apple picking

I have done it here in La Trinidad. Good experience but like you I did not eat the freshly harvested strawberries and waited until I got at the hotel to wash it first before eating it.
