CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- In May, the warm sunshine shines into forest, and green leaves draw a picture ornamented with golden fruits. It is informed that in the tranquil forest of Guangxing Town, Jiangjin District, Chongqing, there is a bustling scene only in April and May -- loquats are ripe.

Pick loquats and put “sweet” into your trunk

“Here, loquats in this tree are sweeter”. Ms. Zhang from Qijiang is picking loquats with her family in Hongxin Community, Guangxing Town. A loquat just picked from the tree is golden yellow. Peel it and put the plump flesh into mouth, you can feel a sweet taste. “I’ve known for a long time that loquats here are very sweet. Since the epidemic has not ended yet and I dare not take my child to somewhere crowded, I take my family together here to pick loquats and bring the freshest fruits home,” said Ms. Zhang.

It’s pleasure to pick fruits at random in an orchard, but if you don’t have time and don’t want miss the fruits in season, the fruit baskets prepared by farmers on both sides of the National Road 210 are the best choice. Every morning, fruit farmers pick ripe loquats in their own orchards, then cut branches and put them into baskets. Along the National Road 210, they pave a golden path. The sweet taste of Guangxing is brought into every household through trunk. “In about half a month, all the loquats will be picked,” fruit farmer Li Hongming introduced.
