Titi Eco Farm, Titi, Jelebu Negeri Sembilan 30 August 2014

We love it here, Titi Eco Farm.This chalet type has serene mountainous view. 
Here, I can really rest and recharge. I don't have to think of food for the family. When the bell rings, it signal that the food is ready. I can just wake up from my nap or drop my book to eat.   

The children roam around the spacious farm freely.

I learnt many more ways to eat well and heal naturally from the farm tour and a health talk given by
the humble farm owner.

. 
I was given this baby Aloe Vera to plant at home. It now grows happily in my garden 

It is our first time eating a hibiscus !  And  I leanrt to include flower into our diet.

 Eat all sort of colour and taste. Different colour is good for different part of our organ.

7 types of herb that are great to consume for various reasons.

I was also taught to grow yeast to make bread. The bread is cooked by steaming, instead of baking in the oven.

My kids fed the rabbits with vegetables harvested by them.

Day 3 at Grace Farm, Serendah Selangor 28 October 2012

The last day was good, lots more time to chill and relax. 

Upon request, we were brought to re visit the animals. 

My young kid asked to stay longer at the farm. On the contrary, I kind of miss city life . 

I manage to sneak into the dorm and read.   
As I stepped out, I saw my child running toward the guard house, shouting "Treasure hunt mom". There was a treasure hunt game that made the kids ran all over the farm. 

I went back to my dorm and read. Bliss. 

Day 2 at Grace Farm, Serendah Selangor 27 October 2012

Day 2 began early at 645am for shrimp harvesting. 
The normal routine of shrimp harvesting starts at 2am and ends at 7am. This is because as the sun rise, the shrimps will be wallowing in the mud at the bottom of the pond. 

A net and a food cover are needed.

Hold the net and wade along the pond.

Transfer the catch from net to the food over.

The fishes will be discarded so that they wont compete for food with the shrimps. 

Dear hubby went for few more rounds to catch shrimps.


Passing a shrimp to my younger kid who waited eagerly by the pond.

Using bamboo shooting and slingshot.


Jungle trekking through mosquito and ants infested rubber tree plantation.

Over here, we were told to wade through the muddy river.

Shortly after, we were told to turn back as the water level is too high for the children.

We crossed the bridge and came to a vegetable farm.

We also got to ride on the barrel-type boats and banana trunk- raft.


This is the dining hall.
We were shown some species of bird, iguana, and animal below.

Day 1 at Grace Farm, Serendah, Selangor 26 October 2012

We had a short escape from the hustle and bustle of city life at Grace Farm. The location of the farm is not too far which is another plus point. 

Kris, the person is charge is humble and calmly caters to every whims of the children and adults alike.  We are grateful to have him and his team with us. 

We slept in dormitory-type of accommodation with two attached cold showers and one toilet. There are also common shower and toilet available outside the dorm. We are comfortable with the facilities. 

We paid RM160 per person which includes meal (2 breakfasts, 2 lunches and 2 dinners), dorm and activities. 

Feeding the cow. 

Milking the goat.

She is very much a nature girl whom I admire a great deal.   

Come on goat, come one, let's go back to the pen.

Mother hen being patted.

Covering the ostrich eyes made my kid mad and sad, let alone sitting on it. 

Tapping the rubber tree.

Ploughing and raking the soil.

The way to the vegetable farm. 

Trying a hand on harvesting the vegetables.


The shrimp pond, some ducks and a German Shepherd which the kids fell in love with.

Debra, Kris's wife led a game for our group after our dinner.
