Gwonseon-gu Gokseon-dong Saemaul Organization Harvests Vegetable Garden Crops

The Gokseon-dong Saemaul Council in Gwonseon-gu (Chairman Lee Jae-ho) conducted a joint harvest operation on the 25th at an unused plot of land next to the Gokseon-dong Community Center, gathering potatoes and garlic planted to help those in need.

The event took place on a hot day with approximately 30 participants from three Saemaul organizations (Leadership Council, Women's Association, and Library Association) who worked to dig up potatoes and garlic, trim them, and tie them into bundles. They worked hard in the heat to deliver potatoes to elderly living alone and children-headed households.

An official from the Saemaul Council stated, "We plan to distribute rice to 20 households in need using the revenue generated from vegetables and garlic harvested from the love vegetable garden."
