Activity
The Orange Detergent DIY Course was held at former Fenghu Elementary School (No. 5, Bashichi Bridge, Zaoqiao Township, Miaoli County), from 8:00 to17:00 on April 10 and 17 2022. In the class, the participants learned to use a variety of fruits and vegetables to make environmentally-friendly detergents for themselves. They made good use of oranges and grapefruits, the featured fruits of Miaoli County. Not only can these detergents be used to wash hair, face, and body, but can also be used to wash clothes, dishes, or clean the house. The cost of self-made detergent is low and can reduce expenses for the family. On the other hand, by participating in the course, new residents can enhance the concept of environmental protection and learn to take appropriate action. New residents also learned that it’s not difficult to appreciate natural resources and protect the environment at the same time. Everyone can implement this lesson in daily life.
