Even with all the rain these days, our harvest continues. It may not always be easy to work in this weather, but our farmers keep going and making sure we still have fresh herbs to harvest.

A big thank you to all the farmers and farm workers who continue to work hard, rain or shine. ❤️🌱

We appreciate you more than you know.

Hindi lang pang-drinks ang Roselle.

Most people know roselle for its flowers, which are used to make refreshing herbal drinks. Pero ang young roselle leaves are edible din!

Sa Thailand, ang dahon ay commonly used sa Kaeng Som (Thai Sour Curry) and other home-cooked dishes dahil sa natural nyang asim.

Dito naman sa Pilipinas, pwede mo rin silang gamitin sa mga paborito nating ulam like sinigang, paksiw, ginataang isda o kahit simpleng ginisang gulay.

Ang roselle leaves ay source din ng antioxidants, vitamin C, at fiber.

What gives authentic Thai soups their signature aroma and flavor isn't a seasoning mix—it's the right ingredients.

Lemongrass, Kaffir Lime Leaves, and Galangal are the foundation of classic Thai soups such as Tom Yum and Tom Kha. Together, they create the distinctive aroma and flavor that make these soups so comforting, especially during the rainy season.

Our pack includes:

• Lemongrass – 5 stalks
• Kaffir Lime Leaves – 4 leaves
• Galangal – 80g

₱150 per pack

Freshly harvested and packed in limited quantities each week.

First Chomchan (Moonflower) Bloom

Our Chomchan (Moonflower) has produced its very first flower!
This is our first time growing this variety, and it’s exciting to see it finally bloom.

Chomchan is commonly used in Thai cuisine, especially the flowers and young buds.
They are usually added to light soups, clear broths, stir-fries, and omelets, valued for their soft texture and mild, slightly sweet taste that absorbs flavors well.

Traditionally, Chomchan is also known in Thai households as a cooling vegetable, often eaten during warm weather. It’s believed to help cool the body and is easy to digest.

A small milestone for our farm, and the start of more to come..
