Because Baguio is in high altitude, there is an abundance of fresh strawberries and strawberry products. The strawberries come from the farms around the area, especially its neighboring municipality, La Trinidad, which is dubbed as the Strawberry Capital of the Philippines. And if you’re a strawberry lover like me, you should visit the La Trinidad Strawberry Farm.
The La Trinidad Strawberry Farm is a strawberry plantation owned and managed by the Benguet State University. It’s almost eighty hectares big, and is important to La Trinidad’s economy and tourism.
Intermission: Are you planning a Penang trip soon? Can’t decide what activities to do yet? Then check out the activities in Klook!
Tourists usually come here to pick strawberries, which is priced per kilo. On our last visit (March 2024), the price is P800 per kilo. We didn’t pick strawberries because the sun is blazing hot at around 9:30AM. So here’s a tip: Come as early as 7AM so it’s still cool.
But if you don’t want to pick strawberries, you can always buy fresh ones from the stalls, which, if I’m not mistaken, sells at a cheaper price than the vendors in Baguio.
There are strawberry products sold as well. You can buy strawberry jam, wine, and…drumroll…alamang (shrimp paste)! LOL.
If you visit, don’t miss out trying the strawberry ice cream. It’s creamy, thick, and doesn’t fall when turned upside down ala Dairy Queen. LOL. For me, it’s better than the ones in Baguio.
And don’t forget to try the taho, a Filipino silken tofu snack served with sago (tapioca balls) and arnibal (brown sugar simple syrup). But of course, the arnibal is replaced with a strawberry syrup.
The La Trinidad Strawberry Farm, I think, should be included in every itinerary of Baguio first-timers and Strawberry lovers. Strawberry-picking is an activity that you don’t get to do very often so might as well maximize the opportunity. I highly recommend visiting the Strawberry Farm to you!
