                      It’s Getting Dark
                      The folksong “It’s Getting Dark” is known by people of all ages in Taiwan. The version here, popular in northern
                      Taiwan, has a light and cheerful melody. The grandfather and the grandmother in the song argue over how to cook the
                      loaches they dug up. The grandfather wants them cooked so that they are nice and savory, while the grandmother wants
                      them cooked with less seasoning. They fight until they eventually break the pot they were going to cook the loaches in.
                      This little ditty hints at the lighter and humorous side of farmers.

                      Loaches—a farming village delicacy
                            Loaches, pronounced “suan-liu kóo” in Taiwanese, are small freshwater fish. They are omnivorous, but feed
                      primarily on aquatic insects and algae. They are tenacious and adapt easily to new environments. Commonly found in
                      rice paddies and waterways, loaches were a favorite food and even considered a delicacy, because they are tender, tasty,
                      and nutritious.

                      How much do you know about farming in the past?
                            The two items below used to be common sights in farming villages in Taiwan. Do you know what they are?

                      Winnowers were used to separate impurities, such as chaff   Years ago, farmers wore woven rush raincoats like this.
