Shanlong Vegetables Park, Community vegetable garden in Nangan, Taiwan.
Shanlong Vegetables Park is an agricultural area in front of the County Government Office, divided into small plots with pathways connecting them. Vegetables like Chinese kale, celery, and spinach grow here for local markets.
The County Magistrate gave this land its official name in 1999 after the community developed it for farming. This founding marked a turning point for organized agriculture in the area.
Farmers here grow vegetables using methods passed down through generations, shaping the look and identity of local agriculture. Their work shows how the community keeps traditional farming alive and visible.
The park is easy to reach, located next to the main government office with open access. Visitors can walk through during the day and see different vegetables growing depending on the season.
The plots are farmed without pesticides and supply fresh produce directly to a nearby market. This makes the park an example of local food production in the area.
