2026 Yi O Tree Planting

The Yi O Agricultural Cooperative invites you to participate in the 2026 Yi O Tree Planting initiative, a meaningful journey into the heart of Lantau Island's agricultural heritage. This event is more than just a task; it is a collaborative effort to promote sustainable living and ecological restoration in one of Hong Kong's most beautiful and remote rural villages.

Understanding Yi O

Located on the southwestern coast of Lantau Island, Yi O has undergone a significant transformation from a dormant village to a vibrant hub of organic farming. By attending this tree planting event, participants contribute directly to the biodiversity of the region and support the ongoing agricultural projects spearheaded by the cooperative.

The Experience

Participants will have the opportunity to:

• Engage with Nature: Spend a day away from the city's concrete jungle, breathing fresh air and learning about reforestation.
• Hands-on Contribution: Under the guidance of experienced farmers, attendees will learn proper planting techniques.
• Community Connection: Meet like-minded individuals dedicated to environmental conservation.

Practical Information

As this is an outdoor event, please prepare accordingly. We recommend wearing comfortable hiking shoes, breathable clothing, and bringing plenty of water and sun protection. Please note that access to Yi O is primarily via trails from Tai O, making this a rewarding excursion for those who enjoy hiking.

Ticketing and Registration

You can secure your participation via the official Art-mate platform. Early registration is encouraged to ensure logistical preparations are managed effectively for all attendees.
