Ant hives

Ants have their own houses called hives. and they are usually "built" on sand.

Here at Toucheng Leisure Farm ant hives are a common sight, but in a tree
branch!

 

 

Here is a picture of where ants build their hive, in a tree!

 

A tour guide ask why do ants build their nests (hive) on trees?

One brilliant boy responded: their afraid of humans!

Who's afraid of who?

Do you have the answer?

Magic English House II

Mr. and Mrs. Chase of the Magic English House with their 8 students stayed at Toucheng Leisure Farm for 3 days and 2 nights this week.
Here are some of the activities they participated.

 

 

 

This is inside the mud hut while they acted like farmers during the olden times!

After catching a fish no matter how big or small it is, is a wonderful feeling!

 

 

Transplanting the rice seedlings in the rice paddies is easy or fun? Ask them, or try it yourself!

 

T-shirt printing and baking pizza DIY!

 

 

 

This our mud hut!

 

 

And here are the joyful, well-behaved and interesting group of the Magic English House!

This is the second time the Magic English House visit to the Farm, an indication of their satisfaction and belief in our service. Thank you Angie and Steve for your loyalty!

See you again!

Sage, plant

Sage or salvia is a small, perennial, evergreen shrub. It has  numerous species ( 700 0 900 in all!)
but all belong to the same plant, sage.
 

 

This flowers blooms with the plant and after searching, I found out they are sage

but with yellow tiny flowers and belongs to the less found specie.

If you have some salad, they can beautify and give a mint-like flavor if added to it.

I would llike to try adding it to my beef steak!

 

Besides beeing just a plant or shrub, they have medicinal uses, as sage is salvia which means:

health, heal or healthy!

 

This plant is growing all around at Toucheng Leisure Farm's. They have a special scent, which is appealing to the nose.

 

See them for yourself!

 

Welcome!
