花格格蓮莊 Water Lily Garden
雙濱共好店家
位於台東縣長濱鄉最北端的水母丁溪源頭，水源非常豐富。
「花格格蓮莊」莊主美瑛出生在南溪部落，小時候全家移居台北，愛花的美瑛於2015年回到南溪部落，在家中廢耕水梯田裡採用自然農法友善土地種植方式開始種植上百種超過一千棵的香水蓮花，因不使用農藥，田裡生態非常豐富，有泥鰍、鱔魚、田螺，紅娘華，負子蟲，龍虱等等。蛙類更是豐富，有腹斑蛙、莫氏樹蛙，虎皮蛙，澤蛙，布氏樹蛙，小雨蛙等等。
花格格蓮莊以乾燥香水蓮花作為其主要展品，花期為夏秋兩季，朵朵鮮豔芳香的蓮花採收下來處理後日曬乾燥成蓮花茶，沖泡飲用香氣四溢更能回甘。美瑛除了會種蓮花，更使用週邊素材做些手作，如藤編籃，芒花掃把，月桃編籃等....自己在園子裏也有種植蔬菜，養雞，養魚，過著自給自足的生活，更進一步做成無菜單料理。
Water Lily Garden
Located at the pristine source of Jellyfish Ting Creek in the northern reaches of Changbin Township, Taitung County, the Water Lily Garden boasts an abundant water supply that nurtures its lush landscape.
The garden is the passion project of Mei Ying, who was born in the Nanxi Tribe. After spending her childhood in Taipei, her love for flowers called her back to Nanxi in 2015. In her family's once-abandoned terraced fields, she embarked on a journey of cultivating over a hundred varieties of more than a thousand fragrance water lilies, embracing natural farming practices that honor the land. The pesticide-free environment has flourished into a rich ecosystem teeming with loaches, eels, snails, Red Dragonflies, Mantises, Water Striders, and an impressive variety of frogs such as Belly-spotted Frogs, Mo's Tree Frogs, Tiger-striped Frogs, Marsh Frogs, Buerger's Tree Frogs, and Little Rain Frogs.
The Water Lily Garden is renowned for its dried fragrance water lilies, particularly vibrant during the summer and autumn months. The process of harvesting, sun-drying, and transforming these blooms into lotus tea creates a sensory experience, offering a delightful aroma and a refreshing aftertaste.
Beyond lotus cultivation, Mei Ying crafts artisanal items using local materials, such as rattan baskets, silvergrass brooms, and Pandanus woven baskets. She cultivates her own vegetables, and raises chickens and fish, embodying a self-sufficient lifestyle. This ethos extends to her culinary creativity, offering guests a unique, menu-less dining experience that complements the garden's serene beauty.
SDGs：
花格格蓮莊支持在地小農、建立產地與餐桌的供應鏈，到拒絕使用一次性塑膠產品，以及積極參與社區服務和保護在地文化。莊園堅持節約用水、用電，並使用環保清潔劑，以減少對環境的負擔。
他們透過教導孩子們山海知識、提供專業的生態導覽活動，幫助部落的弱勢群體，並與部落族人共同創業，提供傳統產業轉型的機會。在這裡，每一位訪客都能感受到來自土地的溫暖與恩賜，以及對於生命和環境深深的尊重與愛護。
SDGs：
The Water Lily Garden champions local small-scale farmers, creating a farm-to-table supply chain while opposing the use of disposable plastics. This commitment extends to active community service and the safeguarding of local culture. With a keen focus on environmental stewardship, the garden prioritizes water and electricity conservation and the use of eco-friendly cleaning solutions to lessen its ecological footprint.
Educational programs about the mountains and seas, alongside professional ecological tours, empower the garden to support the tribe's populations and foster collaboration with tribal members. This collaborative effort opens doors for the transformation of traditional industries. Within this sanctuary, every visitor is enveloped in the land's warmth and generosity, feeling respect and care for both life and the environment.
