按圖可放大漁農自然護理署(漁護署)聯同新界蔬菜產銷合作社聯合總社(菜聯社)、國際十字路會及蔬菜統營處將於2010年7月17 日(星期六)在屯門農墟舉行「本地有機西瓜節」。
屯門農墟位於青山公路2號(黃金海岸一期對面)國際十字路會內，菜聯社於2009年11月成立，逢星期六上午十時至下午四時開放，旨在屯門提供一個固定的銷售平台，方便區內及鄰近市民選購本地生產的新鮮有機蔬果，並可在此與有機農友直接溝通，加深消費者對本地有機耕種及產品的認識。
為推動本地有機耕種發展，漁護署月前為業界舉辦栽種有機西瓜工作坊及推介優良西瓜品種，參加試種計劃的農友十分踴躍。有見及此，漁諼署及菜聯社計劃在7月中正值西瓜收成期間，在屯門農墟舉辦「本地有機西瓜節」，讓二十多位農友可與區內及鄰近市民分享試種成果，及直銷其他本地出產有機蔬果，並藉此活動進一步宣傳推廣這農墟成為屯門區的社區特色。
Tuen Mun Farmers' Market 「Local Organic Watermelon Festival」
The Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department (AFCD) are holding a "Local Organic Watermelon Festival" on 17.7.2010 (Sat) at the Tuen Mun Farmers' Market jointly with the Federation of Vegetable Marketing Cooperative Societies (FVMCS), the Crossroads Foundation and the Vegetable marketing Organization.
The Tuen Mun Farmers' Market, located in the Crossroads Village at No.2, Castle Peak Road, Tuen Mun (opposite Gold Coast Phase 1), was established by the FVMCS in November 2009. The Market, open on Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., aims to provide a regular marketing platform facilitating residents in the district and nearby to shop for fresh organic fruits and vegetables produced locally, communicate direct with organic farmers and get to know more about local organic production and produce.
To promote local organic farming, AFCD organized a few months ago for the industry a workshop on organic watermelon growing and introduced good melon varieties. Farmers have been participating keenly in the trial growing scheme, and their produce will become available in mi9d July. AFCD and FVMCS consider it opportune to hold a "Local Organic Watermelon Festival" around that time at the Tuen Mun Farmers' Market to facilitate over 20 participating farmers to sell their melons as well as other organic produce direct to residents in the district and nearby. The event will also further promote the Market as a special feature of community interest within the Tuen Mun District.
