From Farm to Table: A Low-Carbon Family Journey

On the recent Mother’s Day, numerous families gathered at the HKFYG Jockey Club Organic Farm to take part in the “Youth Decarbonisation Platform – Low-Carbon Family Cooking Competition”, embarking on a unique low-carbon experience from harvesting to cooking.

Families harvested their own “organic mystery box ingredients” , bringing the freshest local vegetables straight from the field into the kitchen and putting the “farm-to-table” low-carbon concept into practice. They then worked together to create dishes, showcasing creativity and teamwork while presenting delicious and sustainable meals , all while enjoying precious family bonding time.

Thank you to all participating families for celebrating a meaningful green Mother’s Day with us. We look forward to seeing you again!

About the Youth Decarbonisation Platform

Since the 2023/24 academic year, the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups has been promoting the “Youth Decarbonisation Platform” in schools, achieving over 2,700,000 kg of carbon reduction to date. As the program enters its third year, we aim to encourage more youth involvement in carbon reduction initiatives. The “Campus Decarbonisation Ambassador” program has been launched to cultivate a group of environmentally conscious student leaders who will mobilize their peers to adopt low-carbon lifestyles. This initiative not only significantly reduces carbon emissions in schools but also enhances environmental awareness and responsibility among students and staff.
