"There's not much money to be made in our trade," says Si, the pig rancher from Hebei province's Sanhe.

"But I'm doing everything I can to create a safer environment for my kids. I'm thankful for the chance to meet those who appreciate our efforts to ensure quality without being overly concerned about cost."

He explains his pigs don't eat any genetically modified feed.

"The people here today understand how good our animals are."

Ouyang Yuancheng, who produces the buffalo milk dairy from Yunnan, wrote in a thank-you note that he also appreciated the chance to introduce safe, high-grade food to hoteliers.

"The event was benevolent and classy," he wrote.

"I'm thankful to have met new friends and learned new things."

Vivienne Li says she's grateful this Thanksgiving for enjoying a good business year.

She'll take winter off and open a new shop early next year in Beijing's 798 art district.
