Speaking of the best view of the farm...<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nIt is a shining hill.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nIn one corner of this shining hill, there is a field where grapes for wine are grown.<\/p>\n

\nThere are about 700 grape seedlings of the European variety Chardonnay that were just planted in April, and they have grown so large even though they have only been there for less than half a year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Normally, grape cultivation involves the use of many pesticides to prevent diseases and pests, but at Ark Farm, we boldly take on the challenge of growing grapes without pesticides.<\/p>\n

However, this year, due to the long rains and intense heat, illness is a constant...<\/p>\n

According to management staff,<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI feel like my heart will break...\u2935\u2935\u201d<\/p>\n

I take care of myself every day with this feeling in mind...<\/p>\n

\nStill, it's true that it's growing little by little, so I hope it continues to grow even faster.<\/p>\n

Since we are growing grapes for wine, in the future a winery will be built in this corner and wine will be brewed...<\/p>\n

It just gets more fun! !<\/p>\n
