Just a few minutes away from the downtown area of Baguio, La Trinidad's Strawberry Fields or better known as
Strawberry Farm has always been a part of my itinerary when in the city. This is where you can have your fresh strawberries. Not only strawberries because on some part they also plant lettuce.

It's not yet harvest time when we got there .. It's there planting season .. But there are also a few that can already be harvested.

I've learned as I have seen about the procedure of planting .. As I wondered why they covered the soil with black plastic one planter said it is to keep the space and so that when it fruits it won't fall to the soil since its a vine type of plant.
one planter said that they watered it thrice a week ..
