脱贫户新家迎来“洋客人”
“2013年,我家被纳入建档立卡贫困户。这几年,镇上、村里通过教育扶贫、产业帮扶、大病救助、购买合作医疗、加入专业合作社政策,给我们家带来了翻天覆地的变化,现在我家已经摘下了‘贫困帽……”在天星寺镇花房村王家如的新家,其母亲分享了脱贫致富的故事,脸上洋溢着幸福笑容,老外们深受感动,由衷地为亲眼所见的脱贫攻坚成果点赞。
王家如一家只是天星寺镇众多脱贫案例中的一个。近年来,该镇依托自身资源推进农文旅融合发展,着力打造现代农业生态观光园,引进了一系列文化生态旅游项目。同时,积极探索“公司+合作社+农户”发展模式,把农业产业发展的收益最大化地留给贫困户,使扶贫方式由“输血式”向“造血式”转变,增强已脱贫户自我持续发展能力。
活动当天,老外们还在天雍生态园里体验了蔬菜采摘乐趣;参观芙蓉村学堂堡社的民宿别花山房,跟着巴南区非遗刘氏泥塑的传承人刘强学习泥塑,老外们感叹:“中国传统文化魅力无穷!”

Households out of poverty welcome "foreign guests"
"In 2013, my family was included in the registered impoverished households. In the past few years, the towns and villages have brought mind-blowing changes to our family through education for poverty alleviation, industrial assistance, critical illness relief, purchasing cooperative medical insurance, and joining the specialized cooperatives policy. Now my family has been lifted out of poverty. " In the new home of Wang Jiaru in Huafang Village, Tianxiangsi Town, her mother shared the story on how they were lifted out of poverty and became well-off, glowing with smiles of happiness. The foreigners were deeply moved and applauded the poverty-alleviation achievements they had witnessed.
Wang's family is just one of many poverty alleviation cases in Tianxingsi Town. In recent years, the town has promoted the integrated development of agriculture, culture and tourism on the basis of its own resources, focused on building a modern agricultural ecological sightseeing garden, and introduced a series of cultural and ecological tourism projects. At the same time, through actively exploring the development model of "company + cooperative + farmer households" to maximize the benefits of agricultural industry development to impoverished households, this town shifted the way of poverty alleviation from "blood transfusion" to "blood creation", and enhances the sustainable development capabilities of out-of-poverty households.
On the day of the visit, the foreigners also experienced the fun of vegetable picking in the Tianyong Ecological Park; they also visited the homestay called Biehua Mountain House in the Xuetangbao Community of Furong Village, and followed Liu Qiang, the intangible culture inheritor of Lius clay sculpture in Banan District, to learn intangible cultural heritage clay making.
