moonseeker Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 I used to buy organic grown fruits and veggies in season, from a ?? friend who had his own little farm. Unfortunately he has moved upcountry and this option is gone. He was fed up with the pollution and traffic. The Royal Shop in Central supposedly to close down soon? Any other options for a bit healthier veggies and fruits? Thx. MS> 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaff Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 hello, can't your friend send vegetable by EMS ? I am also interested to buy. There is an organic farm near Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may be better handled and different or less/better chemicals used, but from what I recall, even their website doesn't claim no pesticides used. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balo Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 You can never be sure about veggies grown in Tbailand. I often buy frozen veggies and berries imported from Australia and NZ , not too expensive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The manic Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 That big Italian restaurant on Beach Road has an organic farm and supplies stuff. There used to be an Organic shop on Tha Praya near the Caribbean Condo but it's closed...does anyone know if it's opened elsewhere. The supermarket at the Avenue might sell some organic produce. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PerkinsCuthbert Posted June 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted June 30, 2018 I wouldn't worry about pesticides in Pattaya; the mere fact of being domiciled in the Kingdom's Favourite Seaside Resort is guaranteed to shorten your life far more than any chemicals on plants will. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are wrong snd just spouting predudiced nonesense. Surprised how many old folks there are here. The Issan Country side is the heart of chemical toxins and CM a centre for smog and pollution. Have you ever been to Pattaya? Ever lived in Pratumnak? I don't think so and you never will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, develop a sense of humour, Sunbeam. And yes, I have lived here thirty years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hargri Posted June 30, 2018 Share Posted June 30, 2018 If you are worried about pesticides on fruit and vegetables you should wash them carefully. There are various substances you can use. Just Google it. Personally I use a weak solution of potassium permanganate which I purchased in 7-11. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes indeed but the toxins that get into the food ie 'systemic' pesticides can not be washed off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonseeker Posted July 1, 2018 Author Share Posted July 1, 2018 Actually quite shocking if you research the subject and read local papers. So much for the healthy TH food. MS> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DrTuner Posted July 1, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2018 I've solved the veggie problem by a carefully selected diet of meats and beer only. Healthy as a goat. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
