起源
创立
重建
According to our earliest records the Guo family has been farming in Yidu since 1880s. This could likely be much longer as China has been a nation of farmers for over 4,000 years.
The current farmers of the Guo family farm married in 1961 and started laying the routes of todays farm. Planting the orange orchard that still stands today. Orange picking has been the focus of local farming efforts in Yidu and many orchards can be seen dotting the landscape.
In 2009 the family farm was rebuilt as part of a government project. But the location remained the same and farming has continued since with traditional practices still in place. And now its your chance to see these traditions and experience the rich Chinese life like a local.
