Strawberries in Winter?
They say fruits are best eaten when in season. Nonetheless, despite the fact that strawberries are actually Summer fruits, they have long been eaten during the Winter season by many. It has, in fact, become a staple of the majority of Koreans and you can find boxes of these juicy treats in almost every household! This has become possible with greenhouse farming, enabling them to harvest strawberries much earlier than before, some as early as October!
They’re also rich sources of fiber, antioxidants, and vitamin C that will help keep you from catching a cold. That’s why now is the perfect time for you to go strawberry picking in Korea! Stock up on those nutrients as you have the time of your life in Korea!
