Visiting Grass Hope Taiwan
Just before school started, we went to interview the members of Grass Hope Taiwan. This organization is located on Yangmingshan Mountain at Taipei, Taiwan. The air up the mountain was fresh and cold. We first met two energetic “Weeds mothers”, who introduced the organization to us. We have an unforgettable lesson on natural farming in that afternoon. Later on, we met the friendly farmers who works on the field, they were Mr. and Mrs. Wu. Members from Grass Hope Taiwan patiently answered all the questions we had in our minds. They even taught us how to pull up the weeds! That was indeed a profound experience for city kids! The most impressive thing about our visit was that organic vegetables could also look very beautiful. We often were told that organic foods look bad but for Grass Hope Taiwan that’s not the case. Just as the teaching of MOA states: people can live with natural, in harmony. The trip of visiting Grass Hope Taiwan gave we a chance to understand the local farmers and natural farming.
