Full day · Kien Giang / Mekong Delta · Max 20 participants

Uncle Tư Việt has been farming organically in the Mekong Delta, preserving the ancient culture of seasonal rice farming — not just the six-month rice, but the national cultural identity. From cultivating rice in harmony with nature, preserving the ecosystem including soil, water, flora and fauna, to nurturing seasonal rice crops. Through natural farming methods, Uncle Tư Việt not only nurtures rice crops but also protects the surrounding ecosystem. Spend a day learning directly from him: harvest, thresh, and cook a full meal using only what the season offers.
