What is Shennong?

Shennong is a legendary figure in Chinese mythology, known for introducing agriculture and herbal medicine to ancient China. He is credited with developing farming techniques and identifying medicinal plants, both of which have played a significant role in Chinese history. His influence persists in modern Chinese agriculture. The Kaohsiung Shennong Farmers’ Market reflects this legacy by supporting sustainable farming and celebrating agricultural heritage, particularly during Chinese New Year.
