"Aunts and uncles, let's try our little tomatoes, they are sweet and delicious!" Recently, the 1M CAMP Community Autonomous Team of Jintang Community, Lingyun Street, Xuhui District, and the Suqi Society Social and Environmental Protection Organization launched a live tomato charity sale, which attracted the attention of many residents as soon as it was put on sale.
At the bazaar site, the vibrant tomatoes with full shape and ruddy color were neatly stacked on the stalls. College students from the community building team of East China University of Science and Technology worked with the "Little Chestnuts" from the Primary School Affiliated to East China University of Science and Technology to become stall owners and enthusiastically sell their products to passers-by. The children are responsible for actively "selling", and the university students take the opportunity to popularize the concept of ecological and environmental protection, and convey a green and healthy lifestyle through the sale of raw tomatoes.
The event also set up an interactive session of "food waste for greenery", where participants could exchange their own food waste for raw tomato seedlings and organic enzyme fertilizer. The professionals of Suki Society popularized the whole process of "turning kitchen waste into spring mud" and its practical value in environmental protection to the residents, and encouraged everyone to practice the principle of turning waste into treasure and circular economy, so that more people can feel the fun and meaning in the process of participating in wet waste treatment. There were also children holding their malnourished tomatoes to ask for advice, and the professional teachers of the Suqi Club also gave guidance one by one.
All the proceeds of this charity sale of 1,000 yuan were donated to the Lingyun Community Foundation. The children expressed their willingness to donate the money to community building. "We have gained a lot today and hope that this money will help more people. A child said.
