The inaugural Hong Kong Strawberry Festival will be held from December 12th to 14th, showcasing at least 12 varieties of locally grown
 strawberries. A legislator stated that the large temperature difference in Ta Kwu Ling makes it ideal for growing strawberries and
 various fruits and vegetables. The event will allow participants to "pick and eat on the spot," and guided tours will introduce
 strawberry varieties, the northern metropolitan area, and urban-rural integration. Phoenix Farm, spanning 200,000 square feet, 
boasts over 10 varieties of strawberries, each with its own story. She explained that it's strawberry season, hence the event's focus,
 but they also have corn, mustard greens, bananas, sugarcane, and cherry tomatoes. "Danshee" strawberries are more expensive in
 supermarkets, but at the Ta Kwu Ling Farm, they're "more than half the price," and she believes they taste better. She noted that
 standing in the strawberry field, you can smell the subtle strawberry aroma even with your eyes closed. She added that the farm 
participates in the "Farm + Entertainment" program, hoping to help the public better understand local products.
