The plantation covers approximately 20 hectares of land dedicated to fruit cultivation.
Star fruit from this region is locally recognized as a commodity that does not rely on seasonal harvesting, allowing for production throughout the year.
The orchard is collectively managed by local Ngringinrejo village farmers rather than a single corporate entity.
The Demak star fruit variety grown here is specifically noted for its high water content and resistance to bruising during transport.
Agrowisata Kebun Belimbing Ngringinrejo is a community-managed star fruit plantation located along the banks of the Bengawan Solo River. The site features thousands of star fruit trees, primarily of the 'Kapas' and 'Demak' varieties, which are known for their sweet flavor and large size. Visitors can walk through the shaded orchard paths to pick fruit directly from the trees. The plantation serves as a primary hub for local agricultural tourism in the Bojonegoro Regency. The fertile alluvial soil from the river supports year-round fruit production. Local vendors inside the orchard sell processed star fruit products, including syrups, juices, and chips. The area is designed with bamboo bridges and pathways to connect different sections of the orchard. Irrigation is managed through traditional methods drawing from the adjacent river.

Bring a hat and sunscreen, as the open orchard can get very hot under the direct sun.
Wear closed-toe shoes to protect your feet from uneven, soil-based paths.
Ask the farmers for guidance on which fruits are currently at peak ripeness before picking.
Do not wander into the private residential plots located on the perimeter of the designated tourist zone.
Avoid picking unripe fruit or damaging the tree branches while harvesting.
