Rosy's Veggies

It has been about a year since I blogged here and and a good many things has happened since then. I have (partially) left Singapore to help start an organic vegetables and farmstay venture in Sukabumi, West Java, Indonesia.

It is still early days for us and we are still learning how to schedule our crop supply as well as design the ultimate cosy farm retreat. Our vision is to give city people an opportunity to experience farmlife (minus the commercialized and overcrowded hotel feel), and get connected with the land where our food comes from. 

We have set up a new landing page and instagram blog for our upcoming organic veggie shop where you can continue to follow our activities and give our farmy team a hearty support!

Now growing: 大豆, Japanese Soya Beans!

PS: We have special affinity for Japanese vegetables and are probably one of the superfew farmers growing authentic Japanese vegetables in Indonesia. The japanese vegetables we grow include mizuna (ミズナ,水菜), round daikon (大根), adzuki (アズキ,小豆), hanamame (はな豆), shiso (紫蘇 or シソ) and hopefully many more others to come. We are still experimenting with the possibilities for gin our land!

If you live in Jakarta and are looking for fresh Japanese vegetable supplies, do give us a shoutout here or via the instagram! We will be more than happy to be your farmer partner.


















Here are our very first hanamame flower in our farm!

Ready, Veggie, Start!
















Watercolouring plants and vegetables is a relaxing activity. If there is a career for it, could do this all day, all week, all month long. Lately I have been preparing some watercolour artworks for the upcoming Rosy's Veggies Sukabumi. We are still deciding whether we will use photos or watercolour for our website and marketing collaterals, and what will the overall graphic feel of the brand... still thinking, still watercolouring!
