We will also learn how tea is produced: from the farm, to the factory and to our table. Finally, we will learn how to best brew tea and enjoy its delicious flavor. Chingyuan volunteers will also show us how to pick tea leaves, demonstrating which ones are ready to be harvested. So welcome to join us!

慈心基金會在新北市坪林區──翡翠水庫的集水區，輔導農民轉作有機茶，減少茶園使用農藥及化學肥料，保護大台北地區的水資源與水庫，走一條與山林共好的道路。我們的活動就從了解淨源茶場開始，​​​​從茶場，到工廠，再到我們的餐桌。 最後，我們將學習如何泡一壺最好的茶並享受它的美味。 我們也將學習如何採茶，曬茶及炒茶。午餐將在此享用有機素食料理。希望藉推廣有機農作來帶動社會大眾關心健康、關愛大地及關懷生命。歡迎一起參加！

We wanted to express our sincere gratitude to each of you for joining our recent trip to Wanhua Herbal Alley.
Exploring the temple where herbal medicine was originally hidden in slips of paper added a unique and enriching dimension to our journey. It was fascinating to witness the connection between spirituality and health practices.
The stroll from Herbal Alley to Herb Bar was an eye-opener, as we learned about the various herbs beneficial for our bodies and enjoying herbal tea after our morning walk was a refreshing experience.
Indulging in local street food added a delightful taste to our adventure. For those with a preference for vegetarian options, our discovery of a charming pizza house provided a perfect way to conclude the beautiful day.
Your presence made this trip memorable, and we want to thank you for your positive energy throughout the day. We look forward to more such enriching experiences together.

非常感謝參加EG為您安排的林安泰古厝之旅，探索這棟重建的四合院古宅及閩南建築，我們很開心與許久不見的好朋能再次相聚。
這棟古厝是近來婚紗攝影的熱門場所，導覽結束後，我們在雨前樓傳統建築氛圍中坐上花轎，化身為中國傳統新娘，大家愉悅好奇的試穿鳳冠霞帔的中式新娘禮服和媒人服，真是一場難得的體驗。
請點選相簿連結一起回味我們共度的美好的旅程。

Thank you for joining us at the Ching Kuo Chi-Hai Cultural Park on Wednesday, what a coincidence, it happened to be Chiang’s birthday on this special day.

The park received its eponymous name from the late president Chiang and his home, the Chi-Hai Residence, which he and his family resided in for 19 years. The house interior was unpretentious, the park also features the first Presidential Library in Taiwan. This library is a center for both scholarly research as well as a ever lasting tribute to the late President Chiang Ching Kuo. We were so honored to receive hearty welcome by the foundation chairman Dr. Fredrick Chien, to hear his speech at presidential library and have a very productive dialogue with our members.

When we reflect on Chiang Ching-Kuo’s life, we have new respect for every individual who has struggled and still struggles on behalf of Taiwan.

非常感謝大家週三與我們一起參訪經國七海文化園區，當天是經國先生112歲的冥誕，在這特別的日子來到園區向經國先生致敬。

經國七海文化園區以『七海寓所』及『蔣經國總統圖書館』為核心，七海寓所是經國先生夫婦的生活空間，共住了十九年，這是經國先生在台灣唯一保存下來的故居，內部簡樸，沒有豪奢裝潢。園區的總統圖書館是台灣第一座總統圖書館，規劃為學術研究中心，對已故蔣經國總統的永久致敬。

我們很榮幸受到前外交部長及監察院長，現任基金會董事長錢復博士的熱烈歡迎，在總統圖書館聆聽他的演講，並與我們的會員進行討論與對話。
這座台北人文新地標，融合了歷史，學術，教育，景觀與生態的文化園區，非常值得我們仔細地來探索。我們紀錄了當日參訪活動的照片與大家一同分享。

回顧經國先生的一生，我們對每一位曾經為台灣奮鬥過和仍在奮鬥的人，都懷有新的敬意。
