At the event venue, a direct market for eco-friendly agricultural products will be held with 47 booths, where visitors can purchase organic agricultural products and processed foods at reasonable prices. There will also be experience and educational activities, such as organic rice cake making, food tasting, and promotional and consultation booths.

In particular, to encourage greater participation from future generations, the event will feature the "Organic Golden Bell Quiz Competition" (50 teams from elementary, middle, and high schools), the "Youth Dance Contest" (10 teams in the finals), and, for the first time, an awards ceremony for the "Organic Food Essay Contest." These programs are expected to draw enthusiastic participation from family visitors.

The event is supported by Jeonnam Province, the Jeonnam Provincial Office of Education, and Muan County. A total of 17 organizations, including eco-friendly agricultural associations from 21 cities and counties in Jeonnam, as well as cooperatives and consumer groups, will participate to help promote the value of eco-friendly practices.
