Spent some time today watching our bittergourd spur in the garden.
This tiny symbol of growth reminds me that, like life, gardening is a blend of patience, effort, and nurturing.
Each step we take is part of a larger journey.

We recently visited Mizba’s farm, known for its sweet pumpkins (labu manis).
Mizba gave us a good tour, explaining the growth process, fertilizers, and pesticides used.
As a special treat, Mizba gave us some sweet pumpkins seeds to grow at our kebun.
Can’t wait to see how they turn out!
A big thanks to Mizba for the memorable experience!

Despite the rainy season, we managed to harvest some lovely white round brinjals!
These brinjals are so smooth, white skin and taste milder (less bitter) from the usual purple varieties.
We like to eat them grilled, roasted, or added to curries.

The Averrhoa yellow belimbi, also known as the belimbing buluh, is a tropical fruit that tastes quite tangy and sourish.
Unlike the green belimbi, this variety turns a bright yellow when ripe, offering a vibrant and zesty twist to your dishes.
It is also packed with vitamin C. Have you ever tried cooking with it? 🍋

After setting up the structure, we continued by filling our raised beds in preparation for seeding.
We began with a base layer of dried leaves, shredded wood, branches, and grass clippings (weed-free), then topped it with our soil mix and compost.
After a thorough watering, we let it rest for a few days to get ready for planting.
We can't wait to start planting!🥰

Today our garden is overflowing with kaffir limes! The aroma is incredibly fragrant and mouth-watering, and the limes are a vibrant green.
We use the leaves for cooking and both the fruit and leaves for preparing aromatic baths, which are so soothing and relaxing.
Happy to grow them 100% organically!

Lengkuas (Galangal)
Harvested a bowl full of lengkuas (galangal) from the garden.
Lengkuas may look similar to ginger, but they are different.
Lengkuas has a smooth, reddish-brown skin and the insides are pinkish-white, whereas ginger has a brown, bumpy skin with a yellow interior.
Both taste different, too.
Lengkuas has a sharp, peppery flavor with citrusy, earthy tones, in contrast to ginger, which has a warm, spicy, and slightly sweet taste.
Hope you know the difference now. I didn't! 🤭

Exciting update from our mini Kebun at Garden Road Plant Sactuary !
We have started setting up our first raised bed and decided to try something new with a metal structure.
To keep weeds at bay, we placed cardboards at the bottom of the bed.
Plus, we secured the corners with hooks for extra stability.
A big thank you to everyone who helped out—your support makes all the difference! 🌱❤️

🌿💚 Throwback to our amazing Effective Microbes and Plant Propagation training in August at Sungai Buluh Malaysia! 🌱
We shared the secrets of effective microorganisms (EM) that boost soil fertility and promote lush plant growth.
We also taught the community on how to propagate plants from cuttings, grafting and more, giving them the power to create a greener world. 🌱💪🌍
May Mother Earth thrive with more communities coming together to learn the art of growing plants!
