Day +833 : A day trip to Tanjung Sepat (3)

I am fine today. Continue from yesterday...

Our next stop was a Longan farm, but unfortunately this was not the Longan season yet, so we didn't get a chance to eat fresh Longan. The farmer there told us that we should visit the farm in December if we woud like to eat Longan fresh from the tree.

However, apart from Longan, the farm also produces many other fruits such banana and pineapple.

Banana tree The banana for sales, RM2 per kg.
Pineapples. Smaller one on the lower shelf is extremely sweet and it cost RM2.5 per piece. The one on the top shelf is bigger and cost RM4 per piece, but taste quite sour :-( But after eating the Miracle Fruit, it sure taste very sweet too :-)
Longan plant Longan free - just a few

After visiting the Longan farm, we visited GanoFarm which cultivate various types of mushrooms including LingZhi.

This is how LingZhi, the king of herbs, is cultivated A zoom in view. It tastes very bitter, thus we cannot eat it as vegetable like other mushrooms.
