Cherry picking in Hefei Feidong Runzhi Ecological Park

Bathing in the sunshine of early summer, the 4,100 acres of cherries in Hefei Runzhi Ecological Park are entering their peak fruiting period, starting from May 8 , about 600,000 kilograms of cherries of 11 varieties are waiting for citizens to pick.

The cherry orchard is located in Xuguang Community, Cuozhen Town, Feidong County, on the north bank of Chaohu Lake. It is the largest single cherry orchard in Southeast Asia. After years of careful cultivation, there are 11 varieties including Zaodaguo, Yanyang, Russian No. 8, and Qinying No. 1. Walking into the cherry orchard, you can see bunches of red cherries among the green leaves, exuding crystal light, like red agates hanging on the branches, making people salivate. Looking around, the entire cherry orchard is full of red and green, which is particularly beautiful.

“Our cherries insist on using farmyard manure and scientific flower and fruit thinning all year round, which effectively ensures the quality of the cherries.” Zhu Shiming, the owner of the orchard, said with confidence, “The fruits produced on the branches are not only small but Large, moist, sweet, and delicious.”

In order to let Hefei people eat local cherries, create a golden signature of Feidong agricultural products, and lead the surrounding people to become rich, since 2013, Zhu Shiming, who was born as a farmer, transferred 10,278 acres of land in Cuozhen Town to establish Hefei Runzhi Ecological Agriculture Co., Ltd., creating a comprehensive agricultural business integrating catering, entertainment, accommodation, leisure tourism, breeding and planting, agricultural technology development, agricultural product processing and sales. The entity, Hefei Runzhi Ecological Park, has been recognized as a leading enterprise in agricultural industrialization in Anhui Province and Hefei City.

The ecological park has a cherry planting area of ??4,100 acres, a 3,210-acre rice and shrimp poverty alleviation industrial park, and a 636-acre aquaculture base. With the industrial development model of "leading enterprise + base + farmers" and "company + cooperative + base", it has successfully led 415 poor households out of poverty. Among them, 37 households have basically achieved moderate prosperity, and 107 rice and shrimp breeding professionals have been trained, creating employment for more than 800 surrounding farmers, and successfully increasing their income. "Tourists here can not only pick the freshest cherries, but also eat local vegetables, catch lobsters, and go fishing." Zhu Shiming said cheerfully, "The cherry picking period will last until the end of May. We hope that the general public can pick in a civilized manner."
