Pear Smoke
「梨煙，讓農村離開煙害」
採收過後，一箱箱的高接梨旁，還有一籃籃的紙套袋，裡面參雜著梨梗、膠帶、包塑鐵絲，它們陪伴了高接梨從接枝、開花結果直到採收，在與水梨分開之後，它們也失去了作用，等待著它們的往往是在果園旁被焚燒或丟棄，梨煙的品牌卻是誕生於此。
“Pear smoke, free the countryside from hazardous smoke”
After the harvest, high-altitude grafted pears fill baskets, and mountains of paper bags are mixed with pear stems, tape, and plastic coated wire. All of these accessories are used in the process of growing high-altitude grafted pears, from grafting to flowering and harvesting. Once these accessories are separated from the pears, they lose their function and are burned or discarded by the orchards, which is the origin of the brand name of pear smoke.
高接梨並非品種，是臺灣為了在低海拔地區能夠種出溫帶品種水梨所想出的嫁接方法，利用臺灣原生的橫山梨(粗梨)及鳥梨作為砧木，嫁接來自梨山地區、日本及中國等地的溫帶水梨花苞，常見品種有新興、秋水、豐水等等，為台灣特有的農業。嫁接時農民會使用俗稱電火布的電工膠帶做包覆材料，而為了隔絕病蟲、維持果色，防水的原因，會套上層數、顏色不同的牛皮紙袋，包塑鐵絲則是綁束套袋用的，這些東西若是焚燒或是棄置會對環境產生很大的負擔。
梨煙品牌發想自利用這些剩餘資源創造價值，用永續的角度去思考，翻轉它們的命運，我們鼓勵農民自主分類以及加入集中清運，並跟農民收購妥善分類後的梨梗，經過乾燥、防腐等處理後，交由我們培訓的社區工藝班進行工藝品製作。
梨煙系列產品的特色為保留了嫁接的樹瘤，讓每樣產品充滿故事，同時也是獨一無二的，除此之外在製作上也是絲毫不馬虎，從原料處理、木工製作、手工細修研磨到油蠟的保養，不只造型特殊，更是精品。
The brand name of pear smoke was initiated from using these surplus resources to create value through the perspective of sustainability for deliberation in order to revolutionize their fate. Therefore, we encourage farmers to classify themselves on their own and join the centralized clearing, and we then buy the properly sorted pear stems from the farmers. After carrying out drying, anti-corrosion, and other treatments, we hand these stems over to the community craft class that we trained for handicraft production.
The pear-smoke series products are characterized by preserved grafted wart, so that each product has its own unique story. Furthermore, the production is not at all sloppy from raw material processing and woodworking to fine manual grinding and maintenance by waxing. As a result, every product is not only special with its shape, but is also a product of excellent quality.
