The Kaohsiung City Agriculture Bureau, in collaboration with Carrefour, is launching the "Kaohsiung All-Star Fruit Festival." A press conference was held today at Carrefour Dingshan Store to promote the event, which will run from April 8th to 21st. Various Kaohsiung fruits, including guava, banana, wax apple, cherry tomato, green plum, angel melon, pineapple, and passion fruit, will be available in Carrefour stores across Taiwan.
The Kaohsiung City Agriculture Bureau stated that it coincides with the green plum season. Kaohsiung's green plum cultivation area reaches 1,395 hectares, mainly distributed in mountainous areas such as Jiasian, Taoyuan, Namasia, and Liugui, making it one of Taiwan's important production areas. However, due to climate change, this year's production is only about 20% to 30% of previous years, and the production period is relatively short. People who love green plums should seize the opportunity.
In addition, the event also highlights the newly launched "Angel Melon," known for its delicate flesh, high sweetness, and elegant aroma. The pineapple, which is about to enter its peak season, is sweet and juicy and is also an unmissable spring delicacy.
Chen Yi-fang, Public Affairs Director of Carrefour, stated that Carrefour has long been committed to promoting food transformation and supporting local small farmers and sustainable agricultural development. The quality of Kaohsiung fruits is highly recognized by the market. Through the "All-Star Fruit Festival," consumers across Taiwan can purchase high-quality agricultural products that are directly sourced from the origin, fresh, and adhere to friendly farming practices at nearby stores.
The event also collaborates with Kaohsiung's green-friendly restaurant "Erzhi Bistro" to launch the dessert "One Plum, Two Rhymes, Green Plum Feast," showcasing the diverse applications and innovative possibilities of green plums in cuisine. There are also plans to continue selling it at the restaurant in the future.
Yao Zhi-wang, Director of the Kaohsiung City Agriculture Bureau, stated that the Agriculture Bureau continues to promote cooperation between local agricultural products and diverse sales channels. This collaboration with Carrefour and Kaohsiung's green-friendly restaurant not only expands the market visibility of Kaohsiung's agricultural products but also concretely implements the core values of supporting local ingredients and a friendly environment.
