當孩子們的聲音與婆娑起舞的曼妙相互歌唱
當作物們的歡愉與慷慨激昂的雀躍來回徜徉

究竟食物的困獸之鬥何時解脫?
如何理解繁華與蕭索的哀鳴鏈結?

農食裡有享用不盡的生命泉源
社區村落中能創造更多反璞歸真的美好

直到承載點滴繽紛與文思泉湧
就讓滋養生命得以感動召喚

因而如是我聞,找回田園間璀璨無比的共享精神。


如果有一張空白的圖畫紙,讓我們擘劃夢想中真實親切的田園共享家園,你會怎麼開始做?

當有些人還在這只是嘲笑小學生的作業時,賈桂琳葛枚(Jacqueline Cramer)與格蘭赫里希(Glenn Herlihy)在一堂樸門設計課程(permaculture)後，與上千名的志工，一同打造了西雅圖的驕傲：全世界第一座的公共「必肯食物森林(Beacon Food Forest)」。誰說城市裡很難找到田園共享之美?

放眼世界,日本全民推動食育的成功案例、歐美國家的From earth to the table概念牽動對於飲食內涵、文化、食材、食物哩程的探討。義大利米蘭在2015年的世博會以「食養大地，生命共享」Feeding the Planet. Energy for Life，著重人能獲得健康、安全和足夠食物的權利。加拿大舉辦第一屆Help Feed A Hungry Planet全球青年農業高峰會,都與安全食物和社區參與有關。世界各國為了糧食、氣候、環境、食安與食農教育成為世界共同的議題，參與思考的討論者也不再只是專家學者，而是如何融入在年輕人的創意活動中，並讓學生建構思索尋求未來可解決的方法。

食農是近年來因應環境惡化後大家非常關心的議題‚為滿足消費者要以短少的金錢購買到賣相好的食材,農人們大量使用農藥和化肥,用以除蟲和縮短收成的時間,種出又大又肥美的食材。而此舉造成了消費者身體的農藥殘留和病變,也造成了土地汙染和環境物種棲地破壞。婆娑蝴蝶不再起舞,鳥類動物棲息的胸襟變小‚土地成了的低泣哀鳴的悲歌,城市變成華麗與蕭索的連結‚身為社區一分子是否有實現理想的勇氣,讓大眾能早日了解農業和飲食消費的關係‚親身付諸實踐食農教育的重要議題。

而幼時屈身觀察一草一木‚方寸想像的樂趣是我們童年共同的幸福回憶。田野中有最接近真實的美好‚大自然土地中的沉穩與希望‚是孩子體驗生命與感動的機會。培養大學與社區孩子攜手體驗田園的自然美感、欣賞群體的美感創作‚透過詩意轉化形塑成人群的關心,延伸為社區共同的榮耀‚才是找回生命感動與價值--美的理想願景。

所以本課程計畫希望透過大學實作課程的融入,配合大學社會責任計畫及社區公民的共同參與‚號召更多愛護土地的學生與民眾捲起袖子一起投入‚期望達到「自由耕種˙收成共享」理想境界;然後「享用大地˙回饋自然」,利用落葉推肥,資源循環涵養自然的概念‚轉而以友善土地的態勢,落實環境教育與實驗,推動社區夥伴食農藝術駐村計畫, 實踐大小攜手城鄉社會服務學習理想;最後「樂群為美˙感受生命」‚透過教育理想與現地資材創作‚在田野土地中布展‚舉辦田園藝術創意展演。讓微笑的眼睛,看甚麼都是美麗的風景。


課程願景與理念

一、自由耕種˙收成共享
當城市耕地面積縮減，許多達成平日營養必需的蔬食材料被迫往鄉村或邊陲耕種，甚至仰賴外在國際貿易進口，不只使國內耕作人口逐漸消失，更使蔬食成本節節提高;而城市中零碎的公有或私人土地節次比麟，正等待計畫變更或是圈地養地卻無法有效作為。健康新鮮的蔬菜食物來源不應被金錢所控制，土地應該透過共治分享達到參與;社區共享園區可以共同參與耕種‚不會種菜的也可以透過夥伴一起學習;菜園裡不只是我的菜‚同時也是大家的菜‚「自由耕種˙收成共享」才是真正打破社區藩籬‚重新省思人信任關係‚找回記憶中那份真實信任、互助分享的珍貴價值‚也就是課程中最核心概念。

二、享用大地˙回饋自然
緊靠在臺中高科技走廊發展的邊緣‚我們應秉持低碳生活、順應自然的食農精神‚不以大量生產農作為目的。而是採用自然落葉及枯枝堆肥‚並將產生的廢物回歸到大地‚建立循環教育機制‚涵養令人親近的土地‚深耕生生不息的能量與資源循環的理念。這樣的理想更能落實於學校教育‚除了讓同學們體驗盤中飧的生活點滴‚延伸成最直接的生活自然教育‚更讓社區民眾和孩子們直接享用健康有機的蔬果‚在都市生活中深刻省思鄉村的另一片美好風景。
三、樂群為美˙感受生命
美是生命中不虞匱乏的基本條件‚也是創造力及生命的發端。一花一草就是創作‚創造與想像的基礎來自於生活‚藝術無法脫離生活。仰臥田野中觀察方寸想像‚體會一沙一世界的滿足與樂趣。而隨著學生與社區各式人才的投入與參與‚檢視生活中人與群體的連結‚修復人與人的社會關係。而能樂群為美‚重新感受生命中無窮盡的能量與價值。

When the voices of children and the graceful dancing dance sing to each other
When the joy and impassioned excitement of the crops wander back and forth

When will the food struggle end?
How to understand the wailing link between prosperity and desolation?

There is an inexhaustible source of life in agricultural food
Communities and villages can create more beauty that returns to nature

Until it carries every drop of color and inspiration
Let the nourishing life be moved and summoned

Therefore, I heard this and found the brilliant spirit of sharing in the countryside.


If we were given a blank piece of drawing paper and asked to draw up a real and friendly pastoral shared home in our dreams, how would you start?

While some people were still laughing at the homework of elementary school students, Jacqueline Cramer and Glenn Herlihy, after a permaculture course, worked with thousands of volunteers to build the pride of Seattle: the world's first public "Beacon Food Forest." Who said it’s hard to find the shared beauty of countryside in the city?

Looking around the world, Japan’s successful case of nationwide promotion of food education and the concept of From earth to the table in European and American countries have affected the discussion of the connotation, culture, ingredients and food journey of food. At the 2015 World Expo in Milan, Italy, "Feeding the Planet. Energy for Life" focused on people's rights to health, safety and adequate food. Canada holds the first Help Feed A Hungry Planet global youth agriculture summit, which is all about safe food and community participation. Food, climate, environment, food safety and food agriculture education have become common issues in countries around the world. The discussants participating in the discussion are no longer just experts and scholars, but how to integrate them into the creative activities of young people and allow students to construct thinking and seek solutions for the future.

Food farming has been a topic of great concern to everyone in recent years in response to the deterioration of the environment. In order to satisfy consumers who want to buy good-looking food with limited money, farmers use a large amount of pesticides and chemical fertilizers to eliminate insects and shorten the harvest time, so as to grow large and plump food. This move has caused pesticide residues and lesions in consumers' bodies, as well as land pollution and habitat destruction of environmental species. The whirling butterflies no longer dance, the birds and animals inhabit their hearts become smaller, the land becomes a weeping lament, and the city becomes a link between magnificence and desolation. Do you have the courage to realize your ideals as a member of the community, so that the public can understand the relationship between agriculture and food consumption as soon as possible, and put into practice the important issues of food and agriculture education.

When we were young, we bent down to observe every plant and tree, and the joy of imagining every inch was a happy memory we shared in childhood. There is the beauty closest to reality in the fields, the calmness and hope in the natural land, which is an opportunity for children to experience life and be moved. Cultivating university and community children to work together to experience the natural beauty of the countryside and appreciate the aesthetic creation of the group, transform it into the concern of the group through poetic transformation, and extend it into the common glory of the community, is the ideal vision of regaining the touch and value of life - beauty.

Therefore, this course plan hopes to integrate the university's practical courses, cooperate with the university's social responsibility plan and the joint participation of community citizens, call on more students who care for the land and the public to roll up their sleeves and join in, hoping to achieve the ideal state of "free farming and harvest sharing"; and then "enjoy the land and give back to nature", use fallen leaves to fertilize, and the concept of resource recycling to conserve nature. In turn, we will implement environmental education and experiments in a land-friendly manner, and promote the food and agriculture art resident program of community partners. Practice the ideal of social service and learning in urban and rural areas; finally, "Joining the community for beauty, feeling life", through the creation of educational ideals and local materials, setting up exhibitions in the fields and holding creative pastoral art performances. Let smiling eyes see beautiful scenery everywhere.


Course Vision and Philosophy

1. Free farming and harvest sharing
When the area of ​​cultivated land in cities shrinks, many vegetable materials that meet daily nutritional needs are forced to be cultivated in the countryside or borders, and even rely on external imports from international trade. This not only causes the domestic farming population to gradually disappear, but also increases the cost of vegetables. The fragmented public or private land in the city is waiting for plan changes or enclosures to raise land, but it cannot be effectively used. The source of healthy and fresh vegetable food should not be controlled by money, and participation in land should be achieved through co-management and sharing; community sharing parks can participate in farming together, and those who do not know how to grow vegetables can learn from partners; the vegetable garden is not only my food, but also everyone's food. "Free farming and harvest sharing" is the real breakthrough of community barriers, rethinking the trust relationship between people, and regaining the precious value of true trust, mutual help and sharing in memory, which is the core concept in the course.

2. Enjoy the earth and give back to nature
Close to the edge of the development of the Taichung High-tech Corridor, we should uphold the spirit of low-carbon life and adapt to nature, and not aim at mass production of agriculture. Instead, we use natural fallen leaves and dead branches to compost, and return the generated waste to the earth, establish a recycling education mechanism, conserve the land that is close to people, and deeply cultivate the concept of endless energy and resource circulation. This ideal can be further implemented in school education. In addition to allowing students to experience the daily life on the plate, it extends to the most direct natural life education. It also allows community people and children to directly enjoy healthy and organic fruits and vegetables, and deeply reflect on another beautiful scenery in the countryside in urban life.
3. Enjoy the beauty of the crowd and feel life
Beauty is the basic condition for not lacking in life, and it is also the origin of creativity and life. One flower and one grass is creation. The basis of creation and imagination comes from life, and art cannot be separated from life. Lie on your back in the field, observe every inch of your imagination, and experience the satisfaction and fun of a world filled with sand. With the input and participation of students and various talents from the community, we will examine the connections between people and groups in life and repair the social relationships between people. And being able to enjoy the beauty of the crowd re-experiences the endless energy and value in life.
