THAVANA FARM

Penang, Malaysia

Farmer: Dr Tharun K. Pillai

With a background that brings science and curiosity to the land, Dr. Tharun approaches farming as both a practice and an experience. Growing mixed vegetables alongside perennials, his farm is a place for precision, refinement and exploring what’s possible when a system is already working.

“The aspiration is to restore soil health while producing resilient, healthy food through regenerative farming that benefits both the environment and the surrounding community.”

— Dr. Tharun K. Pillai
