Thanks to the Cordilleras’ subtropical highland climate, Baguio has become synonymous with strawberries.

About 10 kilometers from the heart of Baguio (every Pinoy child’s dream destination) are La Trinidad Valley’s 66 hectares of strawberry fields, simply called the Strawberry Farm. Experience strawberry-picking to your heart’s content within November and May!

Guess what else is berry Pinoy in Strawberry Farm?

More strawberry than Cobunpue’s:)Handmade strawberries.
La Trinidad sorbetero (ice cream man)…

The Classics
Strawberries by the basket…

Strawberries by the box…

Forever the pasalubong…

Shades of strawberry…everlasting garlands.

On a side note, La Trinidad was our original destination. The Land Cruiser the men were supposed to check out was too pink. Kidding aside, I had fun photographing Strawberry Land in sixty seconds.
