The citrus that will be sold on this occasion is the Unshu Mikan variety of mandarin oranges. The Unshu Mikan selected for this event have been grown specially in a vinyl greenhouse. Normally Unshu Mikan are harvested between fall and winter,but thanks to the temperature management made possible by greenhouses,it is possible now to harvest them during summer. Compared to mandarin oranges grown out in the open,the temperature and water inside these greenhouses have been closely monitored to guarantee the highest product quality.
