Origin Natural Ecological Leisure Farm Introduction
"Welcome to this place." This is a welcoming sign erected at the Roots Natural Ecological Leisure Farm, where "this place" refers not to land value but rather to a precious area maintained with care using natural farming methods. The owner of the Roots Farm hopes that every visitor can fully enjoy a natural farm life, such as smelling the harmless organic soil, tasting the naturally sweet and plump fruits, seeing the lively healthy animals, admiring the lush plants, and gaining a deeper understanding of organic agriculture, which serves as a reminder for us to cherish the land we rely on for survival. The promotion of organic agriculture stems from the owner's longing and love for the land of the Hengchun Peninsula. Initially, tree bark was used as fertilizer material, providing the healthiest irrigation for both soil and crops. Walking through every corner of the Roots Natural Ecological Leisure Farm, one can naturally appreciate the precious harmony between humanity and nature without any deliberate effort, and reflect on how our dependence and demand for the environment outweigh the selfish destruction. Visiting the farm not only offers leisure enjoyment but also serves as a natural ecology lesson. The overall environment of the farm not only centers on natural topography but also possesses an antique charm. Upon entering the farm, wooden tables and chairs, lotus leaf ponds, ox-drawn carts, stone grinding platforms, and red-brick houses come into view, all presenting a scene of rustic elegance. Groups of ducks and geese on the farmland continuously quack in a cheerful welcome for visitors, seemingly helping the owner with the chores. Most impressively, they busily weave through the gardens, acting as little helpers who keep an eye on everything. Arriving at the Roots Natural Ecological Leisure Farm, one is greeted with scenes painted by nature.
