SUMMARY:Eco-tour and Farm Visit to Lai Chi Wo
DESCRIPTION:Eco-tour and Farm Visit to Lai Chi Wo\n \nJoin Slow Food Hong Kong in a rare opportunity for a daytrip to see a once abandoned 400-year-old Hakka Village\, now revived by nature-friendly farming. \nLocated almost near the Shenzhen border sits one of Hong Kong’s oldest Hakka villages. Founded nearly 400 years ago\, Lai Chi Wo was a small but self-sufficient farming community\, isolated but full of life as a tight clan society would be. As generations passed\, it became just another derelict and abandoned village. Fortunately\, in collaboration with landowners\, villagers and farmers\, the Hong Kong Countryside Foundation and the Conservancy Association revitalized the abandoned farmland. In re-introducing nature-friendly farming to the land in 2013\, the landscape has been recovered\, biodiversity increased and an active community was re-established. A formal agreement was developed in 2017 to promote eco-friendly agriculture\, sustainable rural lifestyle and nature conservation. Eco-friendly agriculture practices are implemented on the basis of organic farming. Non-GM crops are grown. Ecological enhancement works are conducted to improve habitats and enhance local biodiversity. \nNow Lai Chi Wo is one of the oldest\, biggest and best-preserved rural settlements in the northeast New Territories of Hong Kong. Situated inside the Plover Cover Country Park\, it even became a symbol of rural revival in Hong Kong with “Special Recognition on Sustainable Development”\, in the 2020 Asia-Pacific Awards for Cultural Heritage Conservation. \n  \n \nNestled in a breath-takingly scenic archipelago\, this guided tour will include a visit and walk around the historic village as well as the outdoor eco-farm. If the time is right\, we may participate in a farm workshop to harvest ginger\, followed by a traditional lunch of Hakka dishes prepared by a villager. Another highlight is simply the incredibly beautiful boat ride to and from Ma Liu Shiu pier and Lai Chi Wo village. \nBy joining the tour\, your participation also contributes to:\n• Conserving wildlife by providing home and food\n• Supporting local farming and village revitalization\n• Restoring wetland farming and traditional paddy cultivation in Hong Kong \n  \n \nTour rundown \n08:50 – gather at Ma Liu Shui pier (10-minute walk from Chinese University MTR station)\n09:00 -10:30 – boat tour to lai Chi Wo along Tolo Channel\, Bluff head and Double Haven\, Lai Chi Wo\, the Hong Kong UNESCO Global Geopark\n10:30 – 12:30 – Eco-farm work or DIY workshop\n12:30 – 14:00 – Lunch in village\n14:00 – 15:30 – Eco-walk at village\, Fung Shui woods and farmland\n15:30 – 17:00 – Depart from Lai Chi Wo by boat\n17:00 – arrive at Ma Liu Shui pier \n  \nDetails \nDate: 19 December 2021 (Sun) \nTime:  8:50am to 5pm (approx) \nMeeting point: Ma Liu Shui pier \nCost: \n\nHKD 750 (or HKD 650 for kids aged 4 or under) per person for Slow Food members\nHKD 800 (or HKD 700 for kids aged 4 or under) per person for non-members\, includes 1 year membership to Slow Food\nThe price includes lunch and return ferry.

SUMMARY:Hack Your Snacks: Afternoon Tea Talk at Fringe Vault
DESCRIPTION:Hack Your Snacks: Afternoon Tea Talk at Fringe Vault\n \nHow do you balance the goal of a healthier nutritional diet with the cravings for munchies and snacks? Try eating healthier snacks. Slow Food Hong Kong and the Fringe Club is presenting a special Saturday afternoon presentation that not only addresses the issue\, but showcases two innovative Hong Kong-based experts making a difference with healthy\, alternative snacks. \nHeadlining the fun and casual discussion are gourmet seed cracker manufacturer Monica Bharwani of Divine Indulgence by Monica\, and artisan plant-based chef and ‘cheezanista’ Amy Elkhoury of Nuteese. \nBoth women started experimenting in food and cooking\, wanting to make healthier choices for themselves and their families. Gradually\, their efforts became a passion as interest and demand in their homemade alternative treats grew organically to become small businesses. Their stories are fascinating and inspiring\, and their original and inventive products break new ground in Hong Kong\, offering health-conscious consumers a real alternative. \n \nLaunched only two years ago\, Divine Indulgence by Monica started with Monica Bharwani making healthy but tasty gourmet snacks for friends and her children. As interest grew\, she wanted to share her love for baking with a healthy component by focusing on nuts- and seeds-based crackers and snacks. \n \nNuteese founder Amy Elkhoury is a plant-based chef who previously worked in multimedia and design. She started looking for more balance in her life by becoming a yoga teacher almost 20 years ago. After moving to Asia\, she began studied with raw food and plant-based chef Matthew Kenney and launched Nuteese in 2020 to be the only person in Hong Kong creating vegan cheese using activated nuts that are fermented\, seasoned and aged. \n  \nDetails \nDate: 27 November 2021 (Sat) \nTime:  3pm to 5pm \nAddress: Fringe Vault\, 2 Lower Albert Road\, Central \nCost: \n\nHKD 150 per person for non-members\, includes 1 year membership to Slow Food\nHKD 100 per person for Slow Food members\nThe price includes a non-alcoholic drink\n\nThe event will be subject to the prevailing legislative requirements on social distancing. \n  \nRegister Here \nRegistration closed

For years\, he worked and eventually managed the tastings at the Wine Bank in Pollenzo\, Piedmont\, home to one of the world’s largest collections of Italian fine wine. \nDario has been based in Hong Kong for over 10 years\, and loves to travel around Asian countries and to explore the F&B scene. \nDetails \nDate: 15 October 2021 (Fri) \nTime:  5:30pm to 7:30pm \nAddress: Watson’s Wine Tasting Room\, 7/F\, 135 Bonham Strand Trade Centre\,135 Bonham Strand\, Sheung Wan \nCost: \n\nHKD 150 per person for non-members\, includes 1 year membership to Slow Food Hong Kong\nHKD 100 per person for Slow Food Hong Kong members\n\nFully booked! \nRegister Here \n*Participants will need to have received 2 doses of COVID-19 vaccines at least 14 days before the event\, and be able to show the vaccination record as proof.
