We’re still farming! 😊

We’ve just been a little caught up with some personal things lately, but don’t worry — the farm is still very much alive and growing. 🌿

Here are a few updates on what’s been keeping us busy lately at the farm. It’s been a mix of sweat, soil, surprises, and a whole lot of greenery!

The cogongrass on this side of the farm is taller than dad — and he's not even short! Forget a bed of roses, we’re about to start a new trend: spa day on a grass bed, farm edition! Who needs a bed of roses when we’ve got a whole mattress of wild grass?

We spotted some patches of Sambong in this area, so we’re tidying up the place. A little cleanup so our leafy friends can live their best plant life!

Our malunggay trees were ready for a trim, but first, our farmers had to battle their way through rows of wild cogongrass.

Finally, after weeks of clearing the malunggay area, the trees finally got their first proper pruning in three years. Talk about a long-overdue spa day!

This malunggay tree is looking fresh and fab now after a week of pruning!

Look who's making a comeback! Baby leaves are starting to sprout on some of the pruned malunggay trees — fresh starts and leafy new beginnings!

The lemongrass patches are finally standing out — no more playing hide and seek with the regular grass! They’re looking sharp, fresh, and totally ready for their close-up!

The papaya fruits are yummy, but we’re actually more excited about the leaves — they’re the real stars after they are processed into tea and capsules.

Look who decided to swing by our avocado tree today—a slithery guest!

After years of waiting (thanks to La Niña’s dramatic episodes), we finally got to harvest our turmeric rhizomes!

After a long day at the farm (and a lot of sweat!), we’re heading home with a bountiful harvest of papayas and bananas — farm life’s sweet reward!
