Lo-light
- A week after Chinese New Year, the demand drop to almost zero. The excess produce was donated and given away to workers and some neighbors.
- The farm-made compost and IMO was barely enough because we are opening more raised beds.
- Spent less time in doing actual farm work personally but more time doing sales, marketing and delivery. Luckily KS Tan is managing the farm.
Hi-light
- Mr. and Mrs. Ho of Vision Farm visited the farm and they were very kind in giving a lot of valuable advice and tips on growing vegetables. I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere thanks to them.
- The January output hit more than 1 ton! The achievement was due to KS Tan’s capability in training and managing the workers. However, the increased output exceeded the actual sales amount, the increase in the number of customers and orders did not catch up in time with the ramp in production.
- The leafy vegetables grew bigger in size than previously. The French bean and cucumber crops also did well in yield.
- Number of customers has increased in both Ipoh and Penang.
- Have updated the website with more pages and photos.
