The Goyang-si Agricultural Technology Center (Goyang-si Nongeop Gisul Center) will hold the "13th Goyang-si Dosi Nongeop Chukje (Goyang Urban Agriculture Festival)" from the 31st to November 1. The festival was planned to let visitors experience the cycle of urban farming, which sprouts from the soil and grows in the city, and the value of a farmer community built together by the citizens of Goyang. One way to enjoy the festival even more fully is to take part in the "growth-type experience program." Visitors receive an Urban Farmer qualification card with a quest stamp sheet from the operations headquarters, then experience the four stages of sowing → management → harvest → utilization in order, going through the one-year process of farming and collecting stamps. Afterward, visitors who submit their pamphlet to the headquarters can receive a commemorative gift as a reward for completing the course. In addition, a variety of on-site activities are available in which visitors touch soil, flowers and herbs in the middle of the city, helping to relieve stress and calm the mind and body. For this purpose, applications are also being accepted for a pre-experience group to take part in the healing agriculture experience program. The pre-recruitment period runs until the 28th, and the participation fee is completely free. The venue will be arranged into four experience zones and a farmers' market. In the Urban Agriculture Zone, activities include seed bomb making, green onion planting, an insect specimen workshop and a rhinoceros beetle experience; in the Healing Agriculture Zone, visitors can make eco-friendly cinnamon water, herbal foot bath tea bags and rose petal postcards. The Future Agriculture Zone presents a visiting plant clinic, future insect farming and urban-type farming, while the Agrarian Culture Zone offers a Gawaji rice meal experience, a farm machinery exhibition and straw rope wreath making. At the farmers' market, eco-friendly farm produce, flowers and succulents are sold.
