2026 Nongttaengjang Young Farmer Flea Market Schedule & Experience Booths, Before Visiting the Pine Grove in Gigae-myeon, Pohang

The shade in the pine grove is cool
as autumn arrives 🌲

Pohang’s young farmers are opening the
1st Nongttaengjang (Young Farmer Flea Market)
on October 10 (Sat) from 11:00 to 17:00
at the outdoor pine grove of the
Gigae-myeon Agricultural Iron Age Culture Theme Park.

We’ve summarized the notice posted by the Pohang Rural Revitalization Support Center
on October 2 and the information from the Pohang city tourism website.

🎪 What Kind of Market is Nongttaengjang?

The market is organized by
the Nongttaengi Cooperative created by Pohang’s young farmers.
‘Nongttaengi’ is a shortened form of Thank you for farming.

This is the very first event,
and at the top of the notice
it says, ‘Learn, connect, and grow together.’

It’s introduced as a market where
young farmers and citizens
can meet and enjoy together.
The poster features the words FARMER’S MARKET,
WELLNESS, and PLAY.

🧺 What Can You Do There?

Here are the programs listed in the notice.
Only the names of the side events are provided.

The times, details, and fees
