Rice has been cultivated in Hong Kong as early as 300 years ago. Yuen Long is also the hometown of rice, and the “Simiao” rice produced was once the tribute rice to the Emperor Shangcheng. It is a pity that in the 1960s and 1970s, with the development of the city, villagers abandoned their farming and went to other places to make a living, leaving a barren field. Yi-O is an ancient village with a history of more than 200 years. Yi O Village near Tai O is one of the largest rice fields.
At present, more than 80% of the agricultural land in Hong Kong has been abandoned for a long time. Nearly 40 years after Yi-O Village was abandoned, in 2013, a group of caring urbanites chose to enter the village again to resume farming, and even established Yi-O Farming Cooperative, a cooperative composed of villagers and rehabilitation teams, hoping to put the long-term abandoned The farmland is planted with local organic crops, so that Hong Kong can be more self-sufficient. The farming community is committed to promoting the restoration plan to the community, and is responsible for external liaison, product sales and activity provision, hoping to make "two Macao" an agricultural centre with productive agriculture as the core Production and related service brands to promote local agricultural development and local farming activities.
At present, the total area of the restoration plan is about 1 million square feet, and the farmland covers an area of 800,000 square feet. At present, about 100,000 square feet of farmland has been restored, and about 30 kinds of agricultural products, including rice, vegetables and fruits, honey, etc.
No matter the water quality and soil quality of Yi-O, it is far away from people and pollution-free, and the land is vast. Local rice is grown organically, produced twice a year, and made fresh on the shelves. Hong Kong has finally returned to Hong Kong again. Except for Yi-O rice, our Yi-O products are all from Yi-O rural areas. Even for the series of cooperation with other brands, the raw materials are produced by Erao, which are definitely high-quality and safe ingredients. Support local agriculture and create a different life possibility from diet!
Customers can also visit the Yi-O Farming Cooperative to experience the fun of bending over to plant seedlings, so as to witness the birth of ten rice fields and understand the truth that every grain is hard work.
