In promoting the use of herbs and their development in the agritourism industry in Taitung, the Taitung District Agricultural Research and Extension Station (TTDARES) of the Council of Agriculture, Executive Yuan held the third session of its Herb Industry Innovation and Added-value Lectures on October 23, 2019, at the TTDARES regional education center. The 62 people who came to the event included those in the local hot springs, hotel, and B&B industries. TTDARES Deputy Director Chen Yu-chu stated that growing herbs in kitchen gardens (whether in backyards or on balconies) is very common in the West and Japan; whenever fresh herbs are needed for tea or food, they are simply picked right at home. Such practice is being widely promoted. The alluring scents and composition of herbs make them perfect for being made into essential oils that soothe the body, mind, and spirit. In recent years, Taiwanese people have started focusing more on healthy living, hence the popularization of concepts pertaining to natural ingredients, health, and healthy living, which in turn has given rise to the cultivation of herbs, the production of essential oils, and R&D on related products. These products, which can be used for food, beverages, handmade decorations, beauty care, and aromatherapy, offer enhanced vitality, health, and diversity in their lives.
