Anything but the pits: Jilin man turns fruit pieces into art

In 2016, Li became a provincial-level inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage and sfounded a micro-carving base in the village. His creations also include root carving, wood carving, jade carving and stone carving.

An increasing number of local villagers have been learning from Li, starting their own handicraft businesses.

"All the courses are free for them," he said. "I hope the skills can be passed on and help the village get wealthier."
