Although mulberry is our main product at the Organic Farm, we also grow other produce that we serve fresh or cooked in our restaurant. Some of the fruit include star fruit, pineapple, papaya, banana, jackfruit and hibiscus. Vegetables and herbs include lettuce, cucumber, beans, lemongrass and coriander. Hibiscus is grown as well and used to make a delicate tea, shake or juice. We also make several herbal green teas including lemongrass tea, passiflora green tea and orthosiphon green tea.

Mulberry leaves are used for making our delicious mulberry shakes, our mulberry wine, and mulberry leaf tempura -- all served at The Farm.  Mulberry leaves are also used to feed our goats that supply milk, cheese and yoghurt, which we can utilize in our restaurant and sell to other establishments.

But we use mulberry leaves mainly for making our celebrated

mulberry green tea.

The production of mulberry tea begins with the selective picking of leaves early in the morning. The freshly picked leaves get washed, then are cut into thin slices and boiled. After steaming and immediate cooling, the leaves are dried over a low heat. The drying leaves are carefully stirred by hand to ensure even heating and a good finished product. The finished tea is hand-packed into bags of various sizes and available for sale.

Mulberry tea is very healthy with many positive effects for the body. Mulberry leaves contain a number of helpful chemicals, including phytosterols and antioxidants such as beta-carotene and alpha-tocopherol. Tests in Japan have shown that these chemicals can reduce the frequency of diabetes and heart disease. Like all green teas, mulberry tea is good for you, and it tastes great. And tea made from organic mulberry trees is the best of all!

We offer our organic mulberry tea for sale at The Farm and in shops around the world. If you are interested in obtaining some tea for your own use, or in quantities for resale, please contact us. Email is probably the quickest and most reliable method to reach us.
