[月餅回收呼籲]
每逢節日，香港人都鐘意送禮，特別係中秋節，數之不盡嘅月餅喺屋企堆積如山，要消滅全部月餅需時甚久，而且食得多會膩。既然勉強自己食晒啲月餅，倒不如將多餘食唔晒嘅月餅(未開封)捐出嚟，等我哋可以將月餅轉贈俾有需要嘅人士或家庭，等大家都可以好好感受中秋佳節嘅氣氛。

9月時令農作物

剛過了二十四節氣之一的「白露」，代表天氣由盛夏進入秋涼。天氣漸轉涼，會在清晨時分發現地面和葉子上有許多露珠，這是因夜晚水氣凝結在上面，所以叫白露。這時，日間暑氣未消，晚上則開始轉涼，早晚溫差漸大，人體易受乾燥之氣所困，因而可選用養肺潤燥的食物去預防秋燥，例如：南瓜、茄子、蓮藕、百合、蓮子、杏仁、梨、蘋果、桃、枇杷、桂圓、雪耳、無花果、花旗參、蜜糖等。隨著「時令」蔬菜的變化，選擇合時蔬菜的好處是，它們在最合適的時候種植和收割，所需農藥會較少，味道也較好；而由於「當造」，產量較多，價格也會較低。
