About our Story
Improve farming and make people's lives better.
The Known-You Social Welfare Foundation was established by Mr. Wen-Yu Chen, the founder of Known-You Seed Co., Ltd., with the aim of promoting academic education, assisting distressed farmers, and sponsoring rural welfare projects. Since its establishment, in addition to donations from Known-You Seed Co., Ltd., the foundation has also received generous contributions and support from the public. Its scope of activities has gradually expanded from serving farmers to the public. We regularly organize agricultural promotion events such as fruit and vegetable festivals, competitions like the Greenhouse Small Fruit Tomato Contest, and domestic fruit and vegetable cooking competitions.
The Known-You Social Welfare Foundation upholds our founder's vision of integrating agriculture and cultural activities. We organize painting competitions, rural photography contests, Agri-food education, potted plant growing competitions, and other activities, aiming to revitalize agriculture and enhance the quality of life for the people.
