During your day at the organic farm, you will be shown around the amazing area and introduced to the wonderful spices and herbs used in Thai cooking.  Sawat, the owner and founder of Thai Farm Cooking School grew up in a family of rice farms and has deep knowledge about using nature only to protect his crops and vegetables and knows the value of not using any chemicals.  He knows what trees to grow where in order to keep a particular crop free of insects and you will learn about these tips during the walk in the farm.  Everything is 100% organic because the school values the importance of protecting the environment as well as peoples health and want to pass on the message.

Modern chemical dependent farming has huge ecological costs, is bad for the health of the farmer and his family and affects the health of the people who eat the food. And most importantly the stuff does not work! Every year the pests grow resistant to the pesticides and the soil fertility falls.

In former times, Thai people didn’t use pesticides. They grew by nature, what makes the vegetables not only more healthy but also more tasty. Organic products contain higher level of vitamin C, protein and other minerals and have less water and less artificial chemicals.

Thai people could control the insects by growing many different herbs mixed together. This is what we do at our farm, and the reason why we have established our cooking school, to teach you about REAL Thai farming like farmers did before!
