The Royal Project Strawberry Fair 2013 | Bangkok Post: The Royal Project Strawberry Fair 2013

Information

To celebrate the season of love, Central and the Royal Project Foundation are organising "The Royal Project Strawberry Fair 2013".

Shoppers can browse through a wide range of delicious strawberries, beautiful roses, and organic and quality products from the Royal Project, at the Event Hall, 3rd floor of Central Chidlom from Friday to Feb 14.

The highlights of the fair include a garden of 30 species of roses and the premiere showcase of five new rose species - all from the Royal Agricultural Station Inthanon in Chiang Mai.

Located at an altitude of 1,200m to 1,380m above sea level, the station has been conducting research and breeding new roses from 28 popular species since 2004. Last year, it bred six new rose species and their names have been registered.

This year it has created another five new species which will be unveiled to the public for the first time at the fair.

Everyone is also invited to propose a name for one of the five species and the winner will receive a three day, two night package tour to Doi Angkhang Royal Agricultural Station.

Visitors can also enjoy a meet-and-greet session with Toomtam The Star who will conduct a workshop for Y Club members on Friday at 6pm. There is also a mini concert by Kangsom The Star on Saturday and one by the young rising star, Pinta The Trainer, on Sunday, both starting at 2pm.
