Picking up fresh berries and fruits is an extremely popular activity for Australian families. If you have not tried it so far, we highly recommend spending a weekend at the farm and enjoy fresh berries.
This is a great way to relax, change the everyday lifestyle and show your loved ones how fruits and berries grow and where they come from. Clean air and time away from the city give the energy and inspiration.
You can spend the day out with kids picking up fresh strawberries. This will not only allow you to have fun but will also give you the opportunity to taste fresh strawberries right from the garden bed. Bright, sweet and juicy fruits will not leave anyone indifferent.
Besides taste qualities, strawberry also has many useful properties. The composition of this berry includes virtually all vitamins and many trace elements, such as boron, iron, iodine and fluoride.
