Two invitations from NDHU Millet Farm and FATS

Dear All

Two invitations from NDHU Millet Farm and FATS (Food and Tourism Studies). We really hope you can join us.

(1) 5/24 (Friday) from 8am-3pm we host a series of indigenous cultural activities at millet farm and you are invited to join us. There is a lunch with pork, veggies, sweet potatoes, corns and millet rice provided. And of course, lots of singing and dancing! My tribal family and friends from Taitung make a huge effort to join us too. They will put on their beautiful dresses with their cultural pride to celebrate the Shooting Ear Festival with us. Don't miss the chance to meet them and know more about Taiwanese indigenous people and their hunting culture and ecological knowledge.

(2) 5/28 (Tuesday) the shared meal is on scheduled again. This week we will be more 'exotic' as our student from Malaysia will be our weekly chef. Yes, lots of spices are expected. It's hot, but I tell you it's so delicious! (We had a 'trial' meal last week at my place! Boy! That was awesome! ) As usual, we will have some fresh salad from our own garden and the campus farmer's market as well. Hot & fresh! What are you waiting for!

Both events are at Millet Farm (next to the parking lot of Indigenous College). The little green tin roof hut is our eating venue. 5/24 festival starts at 8am. 5/27 is at lunch time. The common kitchen is open at 10am on Tuesday and you are always welcome to come earlier and give us a hand to prepare for the meal together. Eating is fun, but able to cook and chat is a real treat for me in our busy academic lives. This will be our 5th open shared meal since the FATS common kitchen has been built by students and working holiday-makers in March.

Hope you can make both of the events. We are looking forward to seeing you!

Cheers

Joyce & FATS Team
