The town of Guiguinto is well-known for its plant nurseries, which provide people with a unique livelihood much appreciated not just throughout the province but also by city dwellers who yearn for their spot of greenery. The townsfolk thus celebrate the Halamanan festival in January to coincide with the feast of its town patron San Ildefonso. Simulating their own Garden of Eden, and manifesting a twin devotion to Sta Rita de Casia, the students from Felizardo C. Lipana Memorial High School and Tuktukan Elementary School, as supported by DepED and their honorable mayor Isagani Pascual,  simulate the movement of plants as they depict the propagation, growth, and nourishment of their natural flora. –  Read More:  cbdpedicab.com
