🌾🎙️ Farmer Podcast 農田廣播 🍓 草莓里專訪｜薄荷小清 🍃 Mint Neighborhood Interview – Little Mint 主持 / Host：阿愛姨 (A-Ai, Strawberry Neighborhood) 農友 / Farmer：薄荷小清 (Little Mint) --- 專訪對話 / Interview 阿愛姨 / A-Ai： 草莓里的好朋友大家好！今天請到的是清涼芳香、精神滿滿的薄荷小清。 Hello Strawberry Neighborhood friends! Today we’re joined by Little Mint—cool, refreshing, and full of energy! 薄荷小清 / Little Mint： 阿愛姨好！大家好！只要輕輕揉一揉，我的清香就會立刻散開。 Hello A-Ai and everyone! Just rub my leaves gently and my refreshing aroma fills the air. 阿愛姨 / A-Ai： 那從種植到可以採收，大概要多久呢？ How long does it take from planting to harvest? 薄荷小清 / Little Mint： 如果用扦插繁殖，大約 3 到 4 週就能開始摘葉，而且可以一直剪、一直長。 If grown from cuttings, I’m ready in about 3 to 4 weeks. The more you trim, the more I grow. 阿愛姨 / A-Ai： 種植上有什麼要注意的嗎？ Any cultivation tips? 薄荷小清 / Little Mint： 我喜歡半日照到全日照環境，土壤要保持濕潤但不能積水。因為地下莖會快速延伸，最好用盆栽種植比較好管理。 I prefer partial to full sun and consistently moist, well-drained soil. Since I spread quickly through underground runners, container planting helps control my growth. 阿愛姨 / A-Ai： 很多人拿妳來泡茶、做甜點或入菜點綴。營養方面呢？ People use you in teas, desserts, and as garnish. What about nutrition? 薄荷小清 / Little Mint： 我含有維生素 A、C、抗氧化成分與天然薄荷醇，清涼又提神。雖然用量不多，但存在感十足。 I contain vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and natural menthol. Refreshing and invigorating—even a small amount makes a big impact. 阿愛姨 / A-Ai： 真是夏天的清爽代表！今天草莓里的農田廣播就到這裡，謝謝薄荷小清，也祝大家每天神清氣爽。 A true symbol of summer freshness! That’s it for today’s Farmer Podcast in Strawberry Neighborhood. Thanks to Little Mint, and may you all feel refreshed every day! --- 📌 小補充 薄荷葉適合泡茶或在料理完成前加入，避免長時間高溫烹煮，以保留清新香氣。 Mint leaves are ideal for tea or adding at the end of cooking.

🌱 田間小屋 – Garden Tales 🍃 薄荷葉 – 生長、營養與由來介紹 Mint Leaves – Growth, Nutritional Benefits & History --- 🌱 生長週期 / Growth Period 薄荷為多年生草本植物，生命力強，生長迅速。在溫暖濕潤環境下幾乎全年可生長。栽種後約 30 天即可開始採收嫩葉，之後可持續分批剪取。定期修剪可促進側芽萌發，使植株更茂盛。 Mint is a perennial herb with vigorous growth. In warm and humid climates, it can grow almost year-round. Leaves can be harvested about 30 days after planting, and continuous cutting encourages new shoots and fuller growth. --- 👨🌾 種植狀況 / Cultivation Conditions 薄荷喜歡半日照至全日照環境，適合排水良好且富含有機質的土壤。需保持土壤濕潤但避免積水。由於地下莖蔓延快速，建議盆栽種植或設置隔根，以避免過度擴散。 Mint prefers partial to full sunlight and well-drained, organic-rich soil. Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid waterlogging. Because it spreads rapidly through underground runners, container planting or root barriers are recommended. --- 📜 薄荷由來 / History & Name Origin 薄荷原產於歐洲與地中海地區，歷史悠久，古希臘與羅馬時代即被使用於飲食與草藥。後傳入亞洲，廣泛應用於茶飲、甜點與料理之中，成為常見的芳香植物。 Mint originated in Europe and the Mediterranean region and has been used since ancient Greek and Roman times in food and herbal practices. It later spread to Asia and became widely used in teas, desserts, and culinary dishes. --- 💚 營養價值 / Nutritional Benefits 富含 維生素 A、C / Rich in Vitamins A & C 含 植物精油（如薄荷醇）/ Contains essential oils (such as menthol) 含 抗氧化成分 / Contains antioxidants 含 膳食纖維 / Contains dietary fiber 低 熱量 / Low in calories --- 🌟 小貼士 / Quick Tip 薄荷葉香氣清涼，適合泡茶或在料理最後加入。避免長時間高溫烹煮，以保留清新氣味與清涼口感。 Mint leaves are refreshing and ideal for teas or adding at the end of cooking.
