Grape growers are all proactive in welcoming visitors, creating a friendly environment for visitors. In particular, the locality has also selected the 2 most beautiful local vineyards, ensuring aesthetic and quality criteria to participate in the "Beautiful Grape Trellis" contest organized for the first time by the province; thereby exchanging experiences in caring for grape plants, promoting the image of Ninh Thuan grape products.
Mr. Doan Van Hoan, in Thai An village, the owner of the vineyard participating in the contest, said: This year, the cooperative selected the NH01-152 (Hong Nhat) vineyard for his family to participate in the "Beautiful Grape Trellis" contest. This is a grape trellis that the family has taken great care of, pruning branches, selecting fruits, cleaning the garden, and creating a very methodical path. At the main time of the Festival, the grapes will ripen to create a beautiful pink color, which will certainly attract a lot of attention from locals and tourists. In order to create convenience and serve the needs of tourists, the family also prepares food services in the garden, introducing dishes and local specialties for tourists to enjoy.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Mai, Lam Son commune said: My family has a garden of more than 1.3 hectares, growing various types of fruit including 150 grapefruit trees, 200 mangosteen trees and more than 100 rambutan trees. Currently, mangosteen and grapefruit have ripened, so this is also a favorable opportunity for visitors to visit and experience picking fruit by hand in the garden. The advantage of Lam Son land is that the area has a cool climate, suitable for growing many types of fruit trees with outstanding delicious quality. Therefore, in the summer, many people come here to have fun, feel the cool air under the green trees, and enjoy many attractive fruits.
Not far away, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Thanh's garden, owner of Xuan Hung fruit garden in Lam Son commune, currently has 1.5 hectares of organically grown rambutan, longan, grapefruit, and durian. To serve the festival, he has cut grass around the garden, restored the huts next to the stream, and tied each durian fruit to the branches to ensure deliciousness, sweetness, and safety for tourists. Mr. Thanh said: This year, the fruits in the garden will ripen right on the occasion of the festival. From now on, we will prepare more carefully, such as tying each durian fruit with ropes, using bags to protect the grapefruit, cutting grass, pruning the branches of the trees covering the paths in the garden, and hanging flower pots in some huts to beautify and create a comfortable space for visitors. In addition, we will prepare and add more services and rustic dishes in the garden to meet the needs of customers.
