All these photos were from our visit in December 2008. The weather was so nice. It is a great place for family spending a day out in a farm, gain knowledge and had a lot of fun. The farm cover the area of 600 rai in a model of advanced agricultural technology and traditional cottage industry.
Many interesting zones ; Large area planted in a great variety of delicious fruits as well as a super-hygienic hydroponic vegetable production, and grow many different varieties of pumpkin, squash and gourd. The farm and plantation surrounded on one side by a large reservoir, on the other looms a dramatic high hill covered with impenetrable thickets of bamboo. The plantation is mainly planted in mulberry whose green leaves fatten the insatiable silkworms in their spectacular growth period from tiny egg to golden cocoon in just a few weeks.
Many fun and educational activities ;
