Summer 2019

Growing in Taiwan: Interactions Between Generations and Agriculture

This summer Lea will be working in central Taiwan with Tian Shan Ling Organic Farm. She will have the opportunity to gain insight into the sustainable management of the environment through planting and cultivating crops and be exposed to different cultural and generational relationships to food systems. Her labor on the farm will directly engage her with local food systems while attending Taichung Chung Hsing University’s organic farmers’ market will inform her of the relationships to agriculture and food held by different generations.
