Our garden design and principles
We are an eco friendly permaculture designed garden and Bamboo nursery. We use no pesticides or herbicides on our potted plants or in the 2 hectares of garden. For pest control and to turn the leaf litter we have over 100 Malay game chickens free ranging in the garden. Malay games are very quite birds. They can grow to almost 1 meter tall and 6 ½ Kilos in weight. The world’s largest chicken. We also use stable manure to mulch and feed our inground plants.
