Loyang City East Peach and Plum Blossoms, Fly Here and There to Whose Home? This is a Poem by Tang Dynasty Poet Liu Xiyi. On March 20th, many peach and plum blossoms were in full bloom in the Dongzi Gou Village of Gaoshan Town, Yichuan County, attracting many citizens to come and enjoy the fragrant blossoms.

Year after year, similar flowers, year after year different flowers. Farmer Jia Shengpu introduced that his farm was established in 2015, with a total area of about 200 acres, mainly planting yellow peaches, white peaches, and American apricots and other 16 varieties. With the trees growing year after year, the blossoms have become increasingly abundant. Every time the blossoms bloom, nearby residents can enter the orchard for free to enjoy the scenery.

Faces from everywhere, peach blossoms still smiling in the spring breeze. The reporter found that the Xibei Farm is not just a fruit farm, but also plants 70 acres of catalpa trees, and in the gaps between the trees, local residents are tilling the land and planting watermelon. This not only beautifies the countryside, and when the fruit and vegetables are ripe, the farm will become another beautiful countryside for leisure picking and enjoying the year of farming. At the same time, the local residents who manage the farm can also achieve employment and earn money at their doorstep.
'Although there are now more than ten varieties, I still plan to introduce some more to ensure there are fruits every month and flowers every season.' Jia Shengpu wants to build this place into a true Flower and Fruit Mountain.
