Description:
FUNKIN Fruit Farm, the only farm to grow the rare fruit, will welcome fruit pickers for the first time on 1 April for the morning on their two-hectare farm in the English countryside.It's the only one in the world belonging to the GLUM (Growth Labour Under Melancholia) vegetation family, meaning they have a different growth cycle to traditional raspberries, and are instead known to thrive in colder, darker environments. Whilst their unique blue hue can come and go in a seasonal pattern, it's typically more apparent during the gloomier winter months.The farmers at the fruit farm have been known to adopt alternative methods to ensure that each blue raspberry, which is grown as the key ingredient in FUNKIN Cocktails' Blue Raspberry Martini, receives the individual love and care it requires to reach the optimum level of winter blues for a guaranteed bountiful crop. These methods include Sally Rooney readings and serenading their seeds with sad girl pop music playlists including Olivia Rodrigo and Lana Del Rey.In addition to picking a punnet of blue raspberries, during their visit guests will have the chance to learn about the unique growing process from the farmers themselves, explore the farm's beautiful grounds, and finish off with a complimentary tasting of FUNKIN cocktail's new Blue Raspberry Martini.A spokesperson for FUNKIN Fruit farm said: \
