This is a special itinerary catered for the orchard tour. Because of a good harvest, the owner of the orchard allowed the tour group that visited the orchid to have an 1 hour session of fruit picking and whatever fruit they pick during that 1 hour is for their keeping.

Joey and Tina just wandered about the orchard as they move into the region where mandarin oranges are being planted. When they saw the ripe and ready fruits hanging on the tree, they pick up their tools and start attempting to get these fruits off their branches into the basket. As they picked, they slowly moved towards a tree that has oranges twice the size of what they had picked thus far.

As they hoist the tools and prepare to pick these huge oranges, a loud shouting was heard from a short distance away, "Don't pick that". It came from the orchard owner whom raced towards them and asked them to stop. He told them to stop as these are not ripe yet. As much as the colour is bright orange and with a large size, this is a unique breed of orange that it will only be truly ripe when brown spots are found on the surface of the orange.

Joey and Tina were thankful to the owner and headed another direction to pick on other fruits before wrapping up their fruit picking session with a basket filled with fruits.
