Genyuan Ecological Leisure Farm Introduction
"There are guests here." This is the welcoming sign erected at the Genyuan Natural Ecological Leisure Farm, where the reference is not to land price, but rather to a precious piece of land carefully maintained by natural farming methods. The owner of the farm hopes that every visitor here can fully enjoy the natural farm life, such as smelling the harmless organic soil, tasting the naturally sweet large fruits, observing the lively and healthy animals, and admiring the flourishing plants that stretch out in nature. There is also the intention to gain a deeper understanding of organic agriculture, reminding us to cherish the land we depend on for survival. The promotion of organic farming stems from the owner's admiration and love for the land of the Hengchun Peninsula. Initially, tree bark was used as fertilizer, providing the healthiest irrigation for both soil and crops. Walking through every corner of the Genyuan Natural Ecological Leisure Farm, one does not need to deliberately feel, as the precious coexistence of humans and nature can be easily perceived. It also prompts self-reflection on humanity's needs and dependencies on the environment, which far outweigh selfish destruction. Visiting the farm not only offers a leisurely enjoyment but also feels like attending a lesson on natural ecology. The overall environment of the farm focuses on the natural landscape while also possessing an ancient 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, upon seeing visitors, quack incessantly, happily welcoming guests as if they were helping the owner with chores. Remarkably, they busily weave between the gardens, acting like little assistants who keep an eye on everything for the owner. At the Genyuan Natural Ecological Leisure Farm, every sight is a picture composed of nature.
