碩士 === 中原大學 === 建築研究所 === 99 === Abstract Sustainable development for communities is a proposed objective among the recent government-related programs. The government also presents the idea of creating a community environment by using ecological engineering methods to promote the concept of sustainable communities. Since having different understanding in this area, I hope this study could offer a further explore on the topic of sustainable communities from the local community residents’ participate in the "community farming" action during their daily lives. From the fundamental living side, the thesis rethinks the relationship of people to land, people to people and people to a community environment to achieve the goals of sustainable communities and environmental sustainability in the daily life. This study takes a sample case from Ren-Ho community of Dasi Township in Taoyuan County, a re-zoned community, as the study case. Through participatory observation and in-depth interviews, it arises the residents’ knowing of the community environment ecology by re-using of the unused spaces and the organic planting. By community farming to create a community environment and from the farming operations to produce the identification, making all individuals of people to have a fundamental change of the past habits, desires and attitudes towards the environment is a bottom-up spontaneous action which could be a living reference model for the community sustainability. Thus, we know the individual recognition about the environmental sustainability and awareness is the most fundamental forces to maintain all environments.
