This project provides 2.42 million KRW per site for cook wages and food purchase costs, and village representatives can apply through the eup/myeon administrative welfare centers.

This project not only reduces meal preparation time during the busy farming season, allowing farmers to focus on farming activities, but also receives positive responses from residents as it enhances community spirit by having villagers eat together, establishing itself as a vital project during the farm season.

A county official stated, “Since this project can provide practical help to labor-short rural areas, we will actively promote it so that more residents can benefit.”
