Live a Life of Health and Sustainability. The LOHAS way!

Established by a group of retired social workers and green living advocates, the LOHAS Organic Farm promotes organic food culture in Hong Kong through a series of farm tours, fun workshops, hands-on cultivation, and good old village-style cooking. Located in picturesque Cheung Lek Village in Sheung Shui, the farm offers stimulating day trips designed to showcase the advantages and techniques of organic farming, culminating in a sampling of the goods: a traditional village-style Big Bowl Feast. Called Poon Chai, the feast is a communal event, featuring specialty ingredients cooked in a giant wok or wooden basin. Sample up to 18 organic vegetables and traditional ingredients in this ultimate vegetarian Poon Chai! You’ll also learn how to make Roselle Jelly from the Hibiscus Plant, which tastes remarkably similar to cranberry.

For HK$280, you’ll enjoy an all-day tour to the LOHAS Organic Farm with an English speaking guide, including:

• Introduction to organic farming, environmental protection and recycling
• LOHAS Farm Tour
• Hands-on organic farming session

“LOHAS Organic Farm” was established by a group of registered, senior social workers and instructors of green living. The purpose is twofold. On one hand, through the growing of organic produce, we hope to promote the organic food culture and to develop local organic market. On the other hand, through the activities of general education, it is hoped that we can enhance the awareness of green living of the general public.

Lohas Organic Farm is situated at Cheung Lek, Sheung Shui, covering an area of 20,000 sq.ft.

Objectives : From a fun and general educational approach, through field research, cultivational experience, workshop and short talk, it allows the participants to have a full picture of the concept of organic living, the advantages of organic farming and its operational process, the difficulties and opportunities for Hong Kong and the rest of the world.
