Description
A Strawberry Garden is a beautiful agricultural and tourist destination where visitors can see, learn about, and pick fresh strawberries directly from the plants. The garden is usually located in a cool area with fresh air and suitable weather for growing strawberries. Visitors can walk around the garden, learn how strawberries are cultivated, pick their own strawberries, and enjoy the natural scenery. The experience is enjoyable for families, children, and tourists because it combines recreation with education. Besides picking strawberries, visitors can also take pictures and enjoy fresh strawberry products.
History
Strawberry cultivation in Indonesia began to develop in highland areas where the cool climate and fertile soil were suitable for growing strawberries. In Bali, strawberry farming became particularly popular in highland areas such as Bedugul, where the climate is favorable for strawberry cultivation. Local farmers began growing strawberries as an agricultural product and gradually developed the farms into tourist attractions.
As interest in agricultural tourism increased, some strawberry farms began allowing visitors to enter the gardens and pick strawberries directly. This activity became known as strawberry picking or “pick your own” tourism. The concept provides visitors with a chance to experience farm life while supporting local farmers and the local economy. Today, strawberry gardens are popular destinations for tourists who want to enjoy nature, learn about agriculture, and experience the unique activity of picking fresh strawberries directly from the garden.
