Zhu Faxue, the proprietor of Jinweiyuan Grape Manor, elaborated: "Our vineyard spans over 500 mu (approximately 82 acres) and boasts a variety of grape cultivars, including Shine Muscat, Summer Black, and Moldova. We've just opened for the season, and we anticipate the peak of grape-picking activities to coincide with this year's Qixi Festival, or the Chinese Valentine's Day."

In recent years, Baishui town has accelerated the development of its livable and productive beautiful countryside, promoting comprehensive rural revitalization and fostering urban-rural integration. By offering policy support, skills training, and on-site guidance to fruit farmers, the town has consistently enhanced their cultivation techniques and orchard management capabilities.

As a result, local fruit growers have not only achieved economic prosperity but also created employment opportunities for villagers right on their doorstep, injecting new vitality into rural revitalization efforts.
