EG trip to PingLin Chingyuan Tea Factory
Time: April 24, 2024, 9:00 am
Meeting point: MRT blue line, Nangang Station, Exit 2
Cost: $1,600 (Including DIY activity, tea tasting, bus and insurance)

April tour will focus on the development of the organic tea industry and why it is important? We will learn from farmers why they have embraced organic farming and how it benefits us. 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！

2023-12-26

「藝文小組」12/21參觀了在淡水歷史古跡區的「巫登益當代藝術園區與美術館」。美術館的前身是加拿大牧師馬偕博士在1875年興建「教士會館」。
（2021-2023）原在101大樓的美術館選址淡水，投入鉅資修繕活化閒置多年的老屋。今年9月17日隆重開幕，推出巫大師近年來最新創作的「真理山水」開館大展。
畫作解析與專人導覽外，策展人與藝術總監並為大家做了一場精闢的「當代全球藝術投資的最新趨勢」PPT講座。
雖然寒流報到、細雨綿綿，感謝館方貼心地準備熱茶招待我們。聽完演講、享用餐點後，凡是答對問卷題目的會員，都有精美筆記本可帶回家。感謝會員們無畏寒冬，和我們一起共度本小組今年的最後一個活動。

On December 21, we visited the “Wu Dengyi Art Museum.” The museum’s predecessor was the “Priest House,” built in 1875 by Canadian pastor Dr. Mackay.

(2021 to 2023)the Wu Dengyi Art Museum, originally located in the iconic “Taipei 101,” was relocated to Tamsui. The grand opening took place on September 17 this year, featuring the inaugural exhibition “Essence of Shan Shui,” showcasing Master Wu’s latest creations.

In addition to the painting analysis and guided tour, the curator and Art Director, Mr. Yang Xiwen, delivered a PPT lecture on “The Latest Trends in Contemporary Global Art Investment.”

After enjoying the light lunch, members who answered questionnaire questions correctly received Wu’s painting notebooks to take home.

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.
