Sharing Warmth with the Community
by Growing Tomatoes Themselves

On May 13, 2025, the city of Gwangyang, South Jeolla Province, announced that the Farm Study Association, the Gwangyang Wonhyup Tomato Cooperative, and the Facility Vegetable Research Association practiced neighborly love by delivering 22 boxes of tomatoes, each weighing 5 kg, which they had cultivated themselves, to the Jinsang-myeon Office.

The Farm Study Association is an organization composed of farmers from 10 local farms. In March, they also donated 20 boxes of tomatoes, and they continue to take the lead in spreading a culture of sharing in the community by consistently donating agricultural products they produce themselves.
