三月菜園的春分邀約
三月菜園的春分邀約 -- by 周靈芝
An Invitation to Treasure Hill Organic Garden in Spring
 
 

這次春分前夕的菜園邀約,一方面是我的駐村生活即將告一段落了。四月開始,生態農園將由社區民眾和志工接手照顧。藉著邀約大家來生態農園旁邊相聚、和寶藏巖文化村協會共同舉辦的「一家一菜」共食活動,除了宣告農園第一階段結束,第二階段開始;照顧的責任將由更多人來參與分擔外,也感謝曾經提供各種想法、意見、勞力、經驗、技術與資源的社區居民、進駐藝術家、藝術村員工、志工和警衛,在藝術村和社區之間建立起更踏實的(solid)互動連結。

 

3月20日這一天,剛好介於春分和花朝節之間。春分是農曆的二十四節氣之一,指的是晝夜平分、農事正忙,同時也是春暖花開,自然生態最豐美的季節。舊時民間有“春分吃春菜”的習俗。逢春分那天,全村人都去採摘春菜,採回的春菜與魚片滾湯,叫“春湯”。還有俗語“春湯灌臟,洗滌肝腸。闔家老少,平安健康。”意思是一年之春,祈求著家宅安寧,身體健康。花朝節則是傳統的歲時八節之一,又稱「花神節」,是指百花生日,同樣是春回大地,萬物復甦,草木萌青,百花或含苞或吐綻或盛開的意思。這一天,各地的百姓,尤其是花農,都要賀花神、祭百花以求庇佑,並且結伴踏青、遊春撲蝶、飲百花酒、蒸百花糕、食花粥、插花、繪花、贈花。

 

經由在寶藏巖農園的工作,我們親身體會了土地、植物、季節與氣候之間的種種關連。春天之際吃春菜、喝春湯、泡春茶,欣賞春天舞蹈的行動,也有喚回都市人在日常生活中對土地、植物節氣和大自然的感受與美學對應的嘗試。明年,我們是否可以預約一個春分節呢?

 

 

感謝所有在這次藝術行動中出頭腦、出體力、出技術、出意見的朋友們協助,包括社區居民、志工、藝術村、藝術家和警衛,更感謝志願擔任行動茶館泡茶任務的易珊,以及即興舞蹈表演的TAV駐村藝術家夢蘋和尋寶坊的明珠。

An Invitation to Treasure Hill Organic Garden in Spring

 

'Hsiang Long Tu Ju' (Auspicious dragon with a dragon ball) is an art project which incoperates the idea of organic farming and edible landscape as well as the practice of community collaboration and local involvement ecologically, creatively, and artisticly. Originaly designed by Italian artist Carlotta Brunette, the work has been developed further by Taiwanese artist Julie Chou and Treasure Hill veteran grower Mr. Hsu. It was carried out all by hand-making by Treasure Hill residents and volunteers working together. It is hoped that the garden should be continued with planting and management in accordance with the aspect of ecological, community-based, diverse, and collaborative principles. 

 

On March 20, the Sunday before the Spring Equinox, we invite you to the edible Organic Garden, following the Treasure Hill tradition of 'Bringing one dish' potlucks, share the food, sip the fresh herbal tea, and enjoy the edible landscape in Spring.

 

Time: March 20 (Sunday) 2011, 12:00pm  Potlucks / 2:00 pm, Tea ceremony & Dance performance
