Our Farmstay in Thailand
The “Suwan Organic Farmstay” is a little over three hectares of nature. Comfortable structures to welcome you in our organic vegetable gardens bordering fish-filled lakes, rice fields and our agroforestry areas. At your convenience, comfortable stylish bungalows or our new space currently being developed with natural constructions.
The “Suwan Organic Farmstay” is above all a place that adapts to your needs, your desires and your pace. It is a farm inn, a farmstay, which allows you a total immersion in Siamese culture.
🌿Suwan Organic Farmstay is in a way a farm inn, a place of exchange, an opportunity to immerse yourself in the Siamese rural world, to touch the realities of the benefits of a farm that respects natural cycles and the environment, an opportunity to discover another age-old culture rich in lessons.
🌿Want to learn and contribute to environmentally friendly agriculture? Suwan Organic Farmstay opens its doors to you for an enriching woofing adventure!
IMPORTANT :
– Did you know that during your stay in woofing you can benefit from an introduction to permaculture or natural construction, at no extra cost! You benefit from a very preferential rate in exchange for an immersion of a few hours per day within our farm, with food included.
🌿The main goal is to introduce you to permaculture in our edible forest, to introduce you to natural construction (earth/straw) and all forms of organic farming that respect the environment such as Natural farming. It is certain that some techniques differ from those used in more temperate zones. But in the end, the result is the same, the production of healthy and natural products that will be part of your daily diet.
🌿As you will be able to discover through the photos and testimonials, we make a point of honor to prioritize comfort. The emphasis is also placed on the friendly, even family, spirit of our host structure.
🌿Another essential element, a must for Thais, the pleasure of the table and of course the quality of the dishes offered. For this either, you will not be disappointed, we find quite a few testimonials to this effect. Thai or European cuisine, prepared with fresh and organic products from our farm, here is something to delight everyone’s palates.

Protection of biodiversity
One of the essential first steps for organic farming and self-sufficiency is to produce healthy and reproducible seeds!
Seeds are essential for humanity as they are the first step in the production of food. When they have been improved thanks to the intervention of the peasants, taking into account the particular local conditions, these seeds represent the cultural value of the traditions, knowledge and know-how on the use of biodiversity.
For our part, we of course work mainly with fertile organic seeds, thanks among other things to the partnership set up with the Kokopelli association… We produce winged peas seedsOur winged pea seeds for the Seeds Without Borders campaign, in return we receive vegetable seeds every year, we make a “fair trade”
What we also appreciate is receiving seeds from our visitors in order to increase the biodiversity of the farm. We appreciate it when our hosts bring seeds from their home country or from a country they have visited.
Sharing can also be done through what you bring… It’s a pleasure for us to have trees, flowers, vegetables from all over the world!
This exchange is of course a plus, and in no way an obligation.
The Suwan Organic Farm is pleased to announce that we can now offer yoga sessions and initiation all year round and on the days of your choice. It’s always a good time to think about yourself 😊🧘
