Banyan Tree to open organic farm in Thailand

By TTG Asia

 

ORI9IN, Banyan Tree’s gourmet organic farm, aims to lead the curve in sustainable retained farming

 

Banyan Tree Group has formed a joint venture with Thai growers The Boutique Farmers to develop ORI9IN, the first gourmet organic farm and restaurant in Chiangmai.

 

The farm will officially open to the public this October, with ticketed options for different journeys, including an exploration of a maize maze, and experiencing first-hand the practice behind crop planting and jam factories. Additionally, there will be venues on-site to host weddings and corporate events.

 

Set on 141ha of land, the farm will feature rental spaces to grow specific ingredients as well as to test and plant overseas products for over 15 Michelin-star chefs from Thailand’s restaurants and hotels.

There really can't be a farm being completely organic.....the soils in arable land have for so long been contaminated with chemicals. 

It's just another commercial venture 

Oh Goodie !!! Now they can slap 'Certified Organic' on their foods and charge a nice extra hefty markup to the already ridiculous prices Banyan charge for meals at their establishments. BS!!!

Banyan BS!
