Yangpyeong Chive Festival,” themed “A Festival Full of Flavor, Fun, and Happiness,” offers visitors the chance to enjoy Korea’s finest Yangdong chives and fresh agricultural products made with the farmers’ dedication, as well as a variety of culinary delights and hands-on programs—all in one place. A bountiful array of dishes made with Yangdong chives—including the festival’s signature “Chive-Plentiful Chive Rice Soup,” as well as chive rice cakes, chive noodles, and chive makgeolli—will captivate visitors’ palates. In addition, the festival features hands-on programs—such as planting chive seedlings and trimming chives—that allow visitors to see, touch, and experience Yangdong chives firsthand, along with a variety of recreational activities the whole family can enjoy together, making it the perfect destination for a family outing with children.
