Gintong Butil Agri Farm Golden Harvest Puerto Princesa City Palawan

Credit to: https://palawan-news.com Farm tourism is gaining momentum in the Philippines. In 2019, more than 200 agri-tourism farms all over the country have been accredited by the Department of Tourism (DOT). During the pandemic, farming became a therapy to deal with the effects of the lockdown, bringing out the plantitos and plantitas in all of us. In the new normal, farm tourism has been a go-to tourism site as government agencies issued relaxed restrictions on open-air, nature-based, rural destinations. Gintong Butil Agri-farm, a farm managed and operated by Puerto Princesa’s City Agriculture Office, positions itself to be more than the usual farm tourism destination. For them, farming is not just a fad. It is a necessity for survival. The 40-hectare Gintong Butil Agri-Farm, 27 kilometers south of the city proper, serves as a demo farm where local agriculturists develop farming techniques to help farmers and ensure food security. #palawan #ppc #puertoprinsesa #cherryblossom #farming #vegetables #crop #crops #bridge #thingstodoinpuertoprincesa
