Maybe they use chemicals or just that it’s been there for sometimes but here you just feel it’s fresh”, says a mango enthusiast who visited the orchard.While Another on exclaims,”Inside the orchard, it was very nice looking at the mangoes, different sizes and shapes and also it was an amazing experience plucking from the tree directly”
