Hello hive friends, it's nearly summer season here in the Philippines. So, refreshments are essential. One of my favorites is coconut! Not only because of its pleasing taste but also because of its benefits in our body as well. In our province where farming is the main industry, there is a Coconut farm located in Ramos, Tarlac. I'll show you the highlights of my visit there in this blog.
The farm become well-known for the fresh coconut juices harvested by the farmers right in front of you. The coconut here costs 10 pesos each. You can set foods on their picnic tables and have a great time with your family and friends.
The perfect breeze in the morning and the smell of the fresh air plus the aroma of the coconut juice makes this place well known!
