Where to go during the long Spring Festival holiday? Three tribes in northern Pingtung take you to experience indigenous crafts the LOHAS way
"Seed" is the crop, the nourishment of tribal life, and also the point where a life continues, an opportunity for a tribe to revitalize. The Dimoer Association cultivates a team deeply rooted in the tribe, putting into practice the idea that "tribal people do tribal work." To recover the moving power of the homeland and string together the life of cultural sustainability, we strive to promote and preserve diverse cultures, establish an independent contract-farming model in the homeland, make use of local humanities and natural resources, seek to have the tourism industry drive local economic development, and further aim for cooperation through the Tai 24 Alliance to jointly create a paradise of ecological culture: symbiosis, co-working, and shared prosperity.
During the Spring Festival, inspired by the tribal life experience, we lead everyone through a time tunnel back to the old Paiwan tribe. Combined with the local traditional culture's welcome ceremony, the original-flavor journey of the Spring Festival can truly experience the local industry of the homeland!
This is a "CPR tribal hope project," and everyone is invited to support and take part together!
