Promoting Regenerative Farming in Hong Kong, China
Details of the Presentation
Who are we?HomelandGreen is a Hong Kong based charitable organization established by a small group of volunteers on 17 June 2013, World Day to Combat Desertification, with the motto ‘Be just to the earth; for the sake of all beings.’ To this date, we only have less than ten active members, mostly full-time career workers and a few retirees. We receive no public fund and run all programs from our own reserves. We organize voluntary tree planting activities to help combat desertification in Inner Mongolia and promote regenerative farming in Hong Kong. What we intend to shareIn this presentation is our story of promoting regenerative farming in Hong Kong, well-known for being a highly urbanized metropolitan, for the past seven years, the strategies we have adopted and the progress we have made. By that we mean
Our storyWe plan to start by sharing the stories of three farming partners of different background, age and experience, each at a different stage on the road towards regeneration.
Then we will review the strategies we have adopted in the hope that we can get advice from international counterparts so that we can move faster and better, and of course, happier. Meet Eva – a farming partner HomelandGreen working with for about three months going through the trial-and-error stage
Meet Cheong Gor, an experienced farmer HLG partners with for more than 30 months, midway on the road towards regeneration
Meet Alice, a young environmentalist turned full-time farmer promoting regenerative farming
How did it all start?
HLG tree planting activities and study trips in arid areas in China
We then began our journey to promote regenerative farming in Hong Kong in 2015 What are our strategies?
What next?
