…mmm, berry burgers and hot springs, enough to get on my places-to-go list! Excellently portrayed, one can almost smell the strawberries and hear the sounds of the village. Interesting snapshot of China’s farming and social culture. Saludos de El Paso! Abrazos, Lucia

It is nice to hear some good news coming out of China. I can’t help thinking about the horrible story I heard on NPR this morning about a surge in forced abortions which is happening right now and being covered up – tho. China lifted its ban on more than one child.

Thank you for your strawberry story. As a legislative advocate working with small farmers in Western Maassachusetts, I found your piece informative and useful. I plan to forward it to all my contacts.

Well written. I always enjoy reading articles about “organic” farmers and foods. It is a good trend that fortunately is growing every day. Now, I feel like eating some strawberries. Too bad fresh ones aren’t in season here in California yet!

Excellent coverage and wonderfully written. It is an aspect of China’s economy that will also inevitably compete with the U.S. This information is useful at many levels.
