Experience Plum Day & Cookery Class

Experience Plum Day & Cookery Class (Spring Edition)

We warmly invite you to join us for a springtime stroll through Kadoorie Farm, celebrating the peak harvest of fresh green plums. Along the way, our team will share stories about sustainable agroforestry design.

As we wander through the natural scenery, you’ll have the chance to hand-pick organic plums. This limited-time experience lets you follow the journey “from field to table.” In the evening, gather with fellow participants to prepare traditional pickled delicacies, drawing on the traditional wisdom of making pickles. With the bounty of green plums at its peak, we’ll begin by explaining pickled plums and explore the use of rice koji—discovering the subtle interplay between daily living and nature’s microorganisms. Together, we’ll share the joy of creating and savoring homemade pickles.
