Down to Earth life market is held 2 days ago at straits quay penang 23rd april 2017 boy arewe having the images fast! This market is a collaboration between Màn Màn Market and (Realfood) Evening organic farmers market, holding for the 2nd time now to make the event bigger with more man power. (D2E) Down to Earth = Grounded people producing honest food. D2E is founded with the same ocjectives of Màn Màn Market and (Realfood) Evening organic farmers market, direct producer to consumer relationship, small scale organically grown farmers, heathy life style, healthy mentality, creative attitude & empowering talents. We are very honoured to have Callie Tai, CEO of Justlife to come and give a sharing on vegetables fermentation, the best part I saw about this demonstration is farmers participating from start to end of her demo to learn about fermenting veggies, that way farmers now can learn a new way to value add their products and reducing wastage of good honest veggies. Mr Lee, giving his 8 years farming story concentrated in 30mins. Personally farming is never easy, especially when we are in the 1st line of facing what nature brings us. Human have lost touch with nature for way too long and many have the mind cept thinking that we are separated from nature. It is only when we step a firm foot into natures' way of food producing then we realise how ignorant we are and we can be. Hand-made soap that is free from additives is the best soap and the only soap that you should use. Above is Annie Wong, our host for the event introducing her homemade, handmade soap. Artistic performance by local artist Rosalyn painting turmeric on organic cotton & Fang Tze Lun soloing on a Chinese harp. Such performance is definitely feeding the mind and soul. Theartistic side of nature is not to be left out when it comes to this farmers market. after all, beauty is created by nature long before human. YB PHEE BOON POH (EXCO) giving us a big speech of how organic lifestyle is the future and should be supported as a opening speech. Cooking demo from Slow Food chef, Mathijs Nanne is a big supporter of local small scale organic farmers. He is also currently the executive chef of Suffolk House. Mathijs is no stranger to the local herbs and sipces and combines European cooking techniques with the vibrant colors that penang has to offer. He is a strong believer of using locally sourced food. Oh yes, Wonder Wilderfarm is also a vendor of D2E market, I must admit, it was tough running around the logistics of the event and tending to a booth space, We have many many thanks to our friends who volunteered to tend to our booth when both me and Meishy is not able to be there. Farm2plate malaysia is always doing something interactive with the kids and hands on experiences is essential to education! GO sushi rolling! Akane! The women who has attracted many curious folks about green tea, sencha? Matcha? where exactly in Japan did green tea comes from? and where is her father-in-laws' farm? Whats the difference with pure green tea powder that she has and regular store bought green tea powder? If you are still dying to get some authentic green tea leaves or pure green tea powder here in penang, look no further to 1st sunday of the month at Màn Màn market (Relau) and 3rd sunday of the month at Evening organic farmers market (Straits Quay), because Akane will be there if you need her.

We are very pleasure to have you to join us in making the earth oven, for detail of what is earth oven, how to make th earth oven etc, please get inside the links attached. 发成造窑记:https://www.facebook.com/notes/huatseng-lee/%E9%80%A0%E7%AA%AF%E8%A8%98-%E5%AE%8C%E7%B5%90%E7%AF%87/10152270069940486 (Mandarin) youtube造窑教学:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0foHjPVbP4 (english) 过去几天,有点忙,以致懒得在每天晚上写一些东西。 17/11,星期天,忙完农事,跟几位义工见面讨论蔓慢市集,突发奇想出很多念头,一月的市集会以新春为主题,我们也希望能在一月市集前弄个土窑出来让一月市集里我们有多点东西玩。一个人玩怎么说创意都是有限,两个人玩增加了点看头,所以未来还得找更多人一起玩,那时应该是疯狂地玩。过后与友人美莲去sushi kitchen吃午餐,我竟然忘了当天是那位朋友的生日,纵使我早上出门前还在面书上祝她生日快乐,直到午餐吃到一半时猛然想起,我竟然那样的糊涂。午后一户土地领养家庭来看他们的宝贝,说是来看菜,但更应该说是来看我,每次都会给我带些食物来,弄妥自己的土地后就开始帮忙菜园的其他农事,小孩们者顾着自己玩。晚上,出席好朋友的女儿生日庆典,我临离开园前,弄了片香蕉叶,把美莲带来的有机棉衣包扎起来,把这生命象征送给小生命,递上祝福时母亲开玩笑的问是给孩子的还是母亲的,啊,我们怎么都忘了祝福母亲,真惭愧。那一天回到家已是凌晨2点,倒头就睡,喝了些红酒特别好睡。 18/11,星期一,进城处理有的没的索碎事情,找一些机械的资料,看看有没有可能机械能使农事作业更有效率,但要找的犁地起箱机没有一家有卖,更失望于客服员的冷漠态度,看似完全没有意愿做我这单生意,幸亏还有一家店的老员工遥了个电话去向供应商询问,企业要进步挑战还真不少。过后继续追踪我寻觅已久的黑板漆,早前已经问了很多间五金店、漆店、甚至文具店,都没有,有些甚至还回问我黑板漆是什么来的,或是有这样的东西的咩,用来做什么的。跟着线索继续追踪,直到去到一家五金店,老板说槟岛只有一间店有卖,叫我不必去问其他店了,我回他说我已经问了很多家,终于买到了黑板漆。尔后到kepala batas 见一位农友,但离约定时间还有点距离,去吃了个午餐,我惊讶于怎么这家茶餐室的食物那么的便宜,叫了一碗大的云吞面,3零吉,份量超大,在岛内的话至少要6块。然后包了2包laksa,老板娘要了4零吉,我没听错,是2包4零吉,而且每包份量都不少,我竟然问她怎么这样便宜,她笑说就快要起价了,每个人都想好好过生活,但生活未必时时都让我们好过。餐后还有时间,到处晃一晃,买了双很有色彩的鞋,准备月底朋友的婚礼时穿,今年的婚宴邀请真多。过后见了农人朋友,老农人的精神常让我敬佩,一片荒地开垦到种植到收成,需要有牛一般的精神才做得到,我自己还没这样的特质。这位农人很久前就想尝试做有机菜,现在正在尝试,惯性农业和有机农业不是两个极点的冲突,而是种选择,所以我们都可以是朋友。临走前,他给了我很多蔬果,木瓜、百香果、香蕉、香港菜心及南瓜,空着手去,满载而归。晚上,到朋友家准备来临星期天要去无肉日义卖会的百香果汁。这星期天,10am-3pm,methodist boy school, 我们将会在那边义卖,顺道宣传蔓慢生活市集和野逸园,欢迎前来支持或帮忙。主办单位会将所筹得的义款将捐给 Sadhu Welfare Fund & Community Aids Service Penang. 19/11,星期二,一早起身,感觉到吹来的风有点不一样,跟昨天或昨天以前的不一样,不太确定是不是北风,过后在面书上看到朋友说她有相同的想法,应该是北风了,可以用自己的感官去感受季节的变化的人真是越来越少,庆幸我身边还有这样的人。我也是用了好多年的时间,去养成稍微对气候的转变有点感受能力,这种感觉很幸福。今天把时间花在农事耕作上,总是因为太多琐碎事而把农事放置一边,得加紧努力做生产。午后大太阳,我躲在树荫下玩起那黑板漆,然后出去一会儿,就在那时候下起了大雨,这种晴与雨的转变太瞬间了,没来得及把正在等晒干的木收起来,他们成了落汤鸡。晚上继续到有人家准备百香果汁,今天的速度比前一晚快多了。 接下来3天,我会参与消协举办的自然农法工作坊,星期五早上会帮自然教师带一团弱势族群的导览,我一直以为是28日,但当被提醒时,我又暗自里骂自己怎么那么糊涂。事情总喜欢挤在一起,就像人一样喜欢热闹。 24/11,星期日,就是无肉日义卖会了。 |
