The South Jeolla Province’s Haenam region has become one of the most popular areas in Korea for the growing number of people choosing to leave the cities and returning to the country’s rural areas to farm. Haenam’s Misae Village is a community of young farmers living and working together to build a new way of life. Join the International Strategy Center’s Monthly Open Lecture Series as we take part in the village’s farming, learn about why people are returning to the land, and speak with Misae’s villagers about their vision for farming and a more sustainable future.
