The farm’s success highlights the UAE’s commitment to promoting sustainability
and innovation in tourism and agriculture.

Established in 2022, Hatta Strawberry Farm features two distinct fields: an open field
with 6,000 strawberry plants and a greenhouse with 1,870 plants.

The farm stands out for its efficient use of time, water, and labor, while also
promoting sustainability through innovative farming techniques that harmonize with
the natural environment.

What makes this farm a favorite destination for tourists is its pristine rural
atmosphere set amidst the mountain, combined with modern facilities, where visitors
not only enjoy the sight of fresh strawberries growing throughout the farm, but they
can also experience the joy of picking the fruit themselves, followed by freshly
squeezed strawberry juice.

The farm also offers a unique opportunity to watch strawberry ice cream and cake
being made on-site, making it a memorable experience for all who visit.

In addition, visitors can enjoy seating amidst the farm’s scenic surroundings, where
guests can have a variety of freshly made hot and cold strawberry-flavored
beverages.

The farm also offers a selection of other local products, including figs and freshly
squeezed natural juices.

His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum visited the farm in
February 2023 during a visit to Hatta, and praised the farm's concept and its role in
attracting tourists and visitors to the area.

Hatta Strawberry Farm stands as a creative and pioneering example of green tourism,
amidst breath-taking natural beauty near Hatta Dam.

It marks a significant investment in natural resources, blending modern techniques
with sustainability.
