108 craftsmen Vistit the ZUKULA village
In March 2016, 108 Craftsmen members No. 001, 004, 008 and 009 went to one of China's most remote province Yunnan to do the field research for an old village Zukula. The village has an exotic name, and the most special thing about the village is, it's the origin place of coffee in China. Over 150 years ago, a French missionary planted a coffee tree beside the catholic church, and it was the very first coffee tree in China. We took a plane, then train, then bus, and then on foot, totally traveled 2700 kilometres to get there....

We leave the ZUKULA village, on the road of return, we met GANDI village, a quiet and beautiful small village, but also very poor, everyone can only get about $ 500 every year.we sent out some sunglasses and reading glasses. Mud and straw to build the wall. The old uncle need a reading glasses, now,he got free one.
