NS Home Shopping is accelerating its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives by supporting an eco-friendly experiential festival in Seongnam.
On June 13, NS Home Shopping will participate in the 31st Seongnam Environmental Day event at the Seongnam City Hall's Neunam Lake Square, sponsoring its signature experiential program, "Palm Farm."
Palm Farm is designed to teach children and families about environmental issues such as biodiversity, climate change, resource recycling, and eco-friendly agriculture through engaging activities.
The event will feature various hands-on programs, including "Mosquito OUT! Cinnamon Stick Garland Making," which teaches about food chains and biodiversity, and an escape room challenge called "Seed Code: The Last Code to Save the Earth," focused on zero waste missions.
Notably, the "Palm Farm Native Lettuce Seedling Planting" program allows participants to observe seeds harvested from the Pangyo Environmental Ecology Learning Center and plant native lettuce seedlings in paper pots, learning about the relationship between nature and food.
This sponsorship reflects NS Home Shopping's commitment to its slogan, "YES, NS! (Your every step, with NS!)," which emphasizes growth alongside partners, local communities, and consumers for a better future.
Additionally, NS Home Shopping will host the "Healthy Food Photo Event with NS Home Shopping" at the venue, where participants can take family photos with healthy food campaign signs, reinforcing the importance of healthy eating and environmental awareness.
Since 2016, NS Home Shopping has collaborated with the Gyeonggi Love Fruit Foundation on various projects, including environmental improvements for small welfare facilities and support for low-income families in Seongnam, accumulating donations totaling 1.25 billion won as of 2025. In recognition of these efforts, the company received the "Gyeonggi Love Fruit ESG Sharing Company" certification from Seongnam City and the Gyeonggi Community Chest of Korea last year.
Lee Sang-geun, chair of NS Home Shopping's social contribution committee, stated, "We will continue to engage in various ESG activities to enhance environmental awareness among future generations and expand community exchanges involving citizens, institutions, and businesses."
