PROJECT BACKGROUND

People are getting more aware of food safety and health. In the old days, Chinese people used to eat seasonal food and live in moderation, which formed a connection between health and nature. The market sells what is needed, and more of the goods in high demand will be produced. While the market is a reflection of our food culture nowadays, the linkage between ‘food’ and ‘season’ seems to be disconnected due to greenhouse and industrial farming. A community about local farm vegetables, Chinese medicine, and farm-to-table restaurants would help to re-promote and educate people to eat in moderation and in a healthier way.
