Geumcheon-gu (Mayor Yu Seong-hoon) will hold a potato harvesting program on June 28 at the Anyangcheon Rural Scenery Trail (340-2 Gasan-dong, right bank).

The program is open to families residing in Geumcheon-gu or groups based in Geumcheon-gu such as schools, welfare facilities, and volunteer organizations.

Families or groups wishing to participate can apply from June 16 to June 23 through the Geumcheon-gu Office website under ‘Integrated Reservation - Other Reservations.’

Each participant can harvest and take home up to one box of potatoes weighing a maximum of 5kg, with a participation fee of 5,000 KRW per box. Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis and will close once applications for 250 boxes are received.

Geumcheon-gu plans to continue operating harvest experience programs using seasonal crops such as radish, cabbage, and corn until October, and will also hold sharing events to support neighbors in need.

Yu Seong-hoon, Mayor of Geumcheon-gu, said, “This Anyangcheon potato harvesting experience will be a special opportunity for children who have limited chances to encounter rural scenery. I hope it will be a meaningful time for them to understand the farmers’ hard work behind the food on their tables and to appreciate the value of nature.”
