香港SANDY的換工體驗 5/21~6/5, 2011

香港SANDY的換工體驗 – 在野蔓園學習自給自足

從來沒有想過在這裡是要學習如何【自給自足】。

來這裡的志工，不只學習對環境友善的有機農業那麼簡單，其實是要把生活上學習好好照顧自己、照顧他人及照顧地球。這一陣子，除了場主阿蔓之外，場內還有一個全職助理、一個長期換工的台灣人，以及四個短期換工的外地人。阿蔓主要定立大方向及一些主要任務，然後很多時他就放手讓我們自己做決定如何執行。如是者，每天就是我們六個年青人在協助及觀察農場的運作，來學習過一種自給自足的生活。

最重要解決的就是食的問題，所以我們每天的工作都是與種食物有關，盡力去使農場的食物足夠我們每天食用及往後來換工的人所需。每天在田裡採摘可吃的食材（不限於自己種的，只要是無毒的野菜都會吃！）、吃農場自己種的米、窯烤手製麵包、用自己釀的醬油、醋、腐乳、香椿醬。由於要自給自足，所以你會留低較小的葉子及不能夠採太多，讓植物可以持續為你提供食物。從田裡有取出，就必須要有投入，所以我們的例行工作就是肓苗及種植，來維持農場永續運作，讓下個月來的義工都可以有菜吃。水從山上老遠接來，途中水管可能會被樹葉塞住、水壓太大時又要用石頭把水管霍住、又或者水管接駁不好就好容易斷開，我們幾個都要想辦法如何讓農場得到穩定的水源。

Here's a short paragraph about what I did and how much I learned while working on your farm. Thank you again for teaching mea nd giving me so much to think about. Good luck with everything and I hope I can come back someday.



Ye Man San( 陽明山) Permaculture Yanana garden

As a WWOOF volunteer for only one week at Ye Man San Permaculture farm outside of Taipei, I was able to see Bill Mollison and other permaculture writers’ works and designs for a tropical farm at work. The reality of the food forest consisting of classic principles such as the banana circle, agroforestry, and pond/aquaculture and livestock integrated into agriculture was much more intricate and productive than I had imagined. I helped weed small plots, make soy sauce and vinegar, harvest various fruit, herbs, melons, and bamboo, and bake bread in an earth oven made of recycled materials. All of these activities were new and interesting to learn about from Ye Man. He regularly teaches permaculture workshops about sustainability, food, nutrition, food tradition, and self-sufficiency that are both fun and informative filled with fresh food from the garden cooked at the farm, homemade teas, and lively conversation. The farm extends into the city by providing sustainable uses for restaurant wastes, which are fed to the pigs as well as earth oven projects. Ye Man is eager to talk, learn, and teach from people and can be reached at the farm, on the farm’s blog, or through workshops where you can also purchase many of the farms products like soy sauce, tea, tofu, rice, etc. There are opportunities to stay on the beautiful mountainside as well. He has a lot more to teach and I wish I had had more time and Mandarin to stay and learn more.

「你想體驗一些有別於城市的農場生活嗎?」肯定的答案促使我決定在台北的野蔓園當了兩個星期的換工, 帶來收獲的也比我想像的多。
每天早上八時開始的農場工作, 首先是拌醬油, 那九缸的醬油讓我緞練了驚人的臂力, 此外, 餵豬、牽羊、曬米、用麵包窯烤有機麵包等日常工作看似平淡簡單，但每一項的工作都需要心思和愛心來營造的。尤其是我們每天吃的稻米, 我有幸可在野蔓園體驗它從插秧生長收割打稻生曬碾米包裝食用的過程, 在烈日當空下工作固然汗流浹背, 但我更親身感受到農夫的偉大和「粒粒皆辛苦」的含意。
「有機」一詞, 我多在商店一角的貨物架上看見, 除了價錢較昂貴外, 未有引起我太大的注意, 而在野蔓園, 我才真正認識、接觸和品嘗到有機食品, 包括糙米、醬油和麵包等, 它們不僅味道可口, 在生產過程中, 我深深感受到它們不受農藥或化學物質所影響, 在天然環境下製造而成, 味道原始而富營養, 對身體不會構成傷害，這對我回香港後的飲食習慣起了啓發的作用, 在飲食方面多選用有機天然的食物, 以減少化學物質對身體的影響。
雖然跟亞曼相處的時間只有十數天, 但覺得他是一個知識廣博、很懂照顧別人的人，也很有耐心去教導怎樣做農場裡的工作, 甚至是做人的道理，這包括土地與人的關係，food miles等來帶出保護環境的重要性, 更道出了「保護環境、照顧人民、共享多餘」的生態倫理，這是很值得我們認真思考和身體力行的, 這也是我在體驗農場生活的意外收獲, 期望在不久的將來多瞭解樸門農藝 (permaculture) 的精神, 並把這精神跟身邊的朋友分享, 讓大家一起照顧地球、關心環境。 ---by Vivian fron Hong Kang
