Applications accepted from the 10th to the 21st...Self-operated from April opening to November
The Daejeon Agricultural Technology Center (Director Lee Hyo-sook) is recruiting 110 households to participate in the Happy Farm urban garden for Daejeon citizens from the 10th to the 21st of this month.
The Happy Farm is located inside the Daejeon Agricultural Technology Center (97, Gyochondaero, Yuseong-gu) and consists of 45 sections of 20㎡ and 65 sections of 10㎡.
Any Daejeon citizen over the age of 19 can apply for one section per household through the 'Daejeon Metropolitan City OK Reservation Service' (www.daejeon.go.kr/okr).
The city will hold an opening ceremony on April 12th (Saturday) and provide garden education to participants, and participants can autonomously operate the selection and cultivation management of crops until the end of November.
Lee Hyo-sook, head of the Agricultural Technology Center, said, "Happy Farm is a space where citizens can communicate with nature and experience healing and relaxation beyond a simple garden. I hope that many citizens will grow healthy food directly while cultivating a garden and feel the joy of harvesting."
