Mother’s Home Village filled with generosity and a green field

  • Address : 110-5, Sabang-gil, Geumgu-myeon, Gimje, Jeonbuk State

Most village residents are engaged in the farming and livestock industry. Representative crops include a variety of vegetables cultivated in a large-scale greenhouse complex, pears grown on farm designated as an eco-farm, and rice. The village residents endeavor to enrich meal time and provide safe and reliable food using ecological and traditional agricultural technologies in accordance with the changing dietary life in Korea.

The village reminds exhausted urban dwellers and their children of memories from their mother’s old home in the weekend farm and the learning and experience fields using the farm products of the village. Moreover, Nakseong Farm breeds livestock, including Korean cows and goats and is very interested in health food shown by the breeding deer to produce antlers, a special health supplement. The village is on the Honam Plain, which is known as the grain belt of Korea. There are lots of small and big reservoirs, including Byeokgolje Reservoir, built during the period of Three Hans. Those reservoirs have been used up to now. In particular, Daeyul Reservoir is not only used for agriculture, but it also attracts a lot of anglers due to the abundance of big freshwater fish, like crucian carps and catfish. Gazing at the picturesque reservoir, you can relieve stress and create unforgettable memories by enjoying the spicy freshwater fish stew made with various seasoning and fish from the clean reservoir.

This Mother’s Home Village, with tradition and the astonishing generosity of the farming village will be a place of great memories for visitors because visitors can experience the weekend farm, taste sweet pears and fresh vegetables cultivated in the greenhouse complex, and catch fish in a large reservoir, rarely seen elsewhere, and savor the satisfaction of a job well done.
