AndPersimmon dyeing uses the peels discarded during persimmon cake processing as natural fabric dye, though persimmon juice can also be used. Depending on the desired purpose, technique, pattern design, and size of the final product, the application can vary. It can be done individually or as a group project.

Meanwhile, also located in Hanjingli, Xingpu, the Weijiajia Persimmon Farm has over 200 persimmon trees. When the persimmons ripen, the mountainside turns completely red. Using both sun drying and carbon roasting methods, they produce a variety of dried persimmons. After a series of complex processes including repeated sun drying, carbon roasting, and kneading, it takes about two weeks to create high-quality dried persimmons.
