The farmers of the Living Land will teach visitors everything they need to know about the 13 stages of growing rice, including the selection of the best grains, the energetic and sometimes humorous preparation of the rice field, to the planting of the rice, the harvest and eventually the processing. They will also demonstrate how to make rice flour and finally, travelers have the chance to taste some products made of rice.
It is also an opportunity to learn how the farmers make the tools they need and to discover how they weave bamboo to make the special baskets for cooking the rice. Afterwards, there is a chance to visit the organic vegetable garden and learn about the cultivation methods as well as the various vegetables and aromatic plants grown on the farm.
