Tour Overview

●

Understand the biological characteristics, growth environment, origin characteristics, and breeding history of clams

●

"Black Pipe Certified Eco-Tour" Friendly Habitat x Local Products

●

Each person will receive a pack of vacuum-packed "Qigu Clams"

As the saying goes, "Catching clams is like washing your pants," and catching clams is just as fun! The shallow clam ponds are perfect for both adults and children. Beyond that, we're happy to introduce you to the symbiotic environment of Qigu, where humans and birds coexist, and learn how the clam farmers there adhere to the principles of "ecological balance" and "friendly farming."

Since clams require sunlight, they are kept in shallow ponds. Qigu also employs a low-density farming system to reduce the use of pesticides. After participating in "Clams What Clams," clams will become more than just a delicacy on the table; they'll become a local story. It's definitely worth the trip!
