our story
When you start a journey sometimes you just don’t know where it will take you and we think that is very true to our story. For many years we were in the fashion and retail business. At some point we had purchased a piece of land just outside Chiang Mai where we grew rice in a conventional way. That all changed when two of our partners Pui and Thong decided to throw a party for their kid’s friends at the farm teaching them how to plant and harvest rice and other fun activities. The kids loved it and other parents started calling and asking if we could organize something similar for their kids and it was in this moment that the seed for GINGER FARM was sown.
Today GINGER FARM is a working farm conducting workshops mainly for kids but also adults where they can get to experience life on a Thai farm and other related activities. When people come together, they need food, so we opened GINGER FARM KITCHEN serving mainly traditional Thai food with focus on dishes from the North. Early on we made a decision that we wanted to go organic and free range as much as we can to ensure that our visitors are provided with a safe environment and food. Our food is cooked in the old traditional way with vegetables and herbs from our own garden and without the use of MSG.
The farm became popular and so became our food. When we got offered a prime location in Chiang Mai, we decided it was time to bring GINGER FARM KITCHEN to the city with a “FARM TO CITY” concept.
Since then two more have been added in Bangkok. More than ever we have focus on being organic and conducting our business in a sustainable way and to achieve that goal we are today working with a large group of suppliers sharing the same vision.
This is only the beginning of our journey and we know we can and must do even better as we move along. We want to share, educate, being educated, give back and increase wellness.
