The Citrus Family fruits

Toucheng Leisure Farm is fortunate to grow three kinds of citrus family fruits in its orchard.

One of them is the mandarin orange, and bigger than the other two citruses.
The are round, thick -skinned and edible, turn reddish-yellow when ripe.
Guests can pick them right from the trees during the spring season when they are ripe, juicy and sweet!

The second kind is the bitter orange or Fortunella margarita. They are famous for marinating purposes or broiled fish spice. They are also round, small and turns yellow from green when ripe. They are not eaten raw but can be used to make marmalades.








And the third kind is the Kumquat. This citrus family specie has edible skin and meat. They are also made into soft candies. At the Farm's Winery it is an ingredient for making Kumquat wines.















The Farm's Kumquat orchards are full of fruits during the spring season and guests enjoy picking them bountifully to bring home to their families and friends.


There are still fruits hanging on the trees, come and enjoy them while there is still time.
