We often got asked whether we can grow zucchini in Huahin… well, technically we could, but the plants often suffer in our climate zone with high humidity, heat, and the multitude of pests and diseases.So, no locally grown zucchini. End of story.Not quite.This week we experimented with a close relative that cooked and tasted much like zucchini, except better.It’s pumpkin. 🎃Yes, the same fruit/veg we all know and love especially during Halloween and holiday season.Except this time we harvest them young. I mean really young… when they’re still green and tender, before the seeds develop and started to develop the hard fibers.People in Southeast Asia have been eating young pumpkin (and other cucurbits like watermelon and squash) since ancient time, often as the main vegetable in soup, curry, or stir fried.This time we sliced them thin (whole, with the skin on), then sautéed quickly in butter 🧈 and garlic 🧄The result was much better than it looks in the photos.Tender, flavorful with umami, and mildly aromatic. This thing will make you not want to eat zucchini anymore.The best part: young pumpkin can be grown sustainably all year round in our area.Want to try some? Send us a message to reserve.Subscription customers can expect to see them in the near future (you may have received some already this weekend).Available exclusively from Farm-a-jarn.🧑‍🌾🍳🐝🪴🌻🎃

Need large fig trees for your farm/garden? Here’s your chance…As you may have heard, our farm was hard hit by the recent storm. We’re still operational but at a slower pace. And many structures are damaged beyond repair.Thanks many who have reached out offering help. We’re currently not letting anyone in for several reasons (your own safety, immigration law, and language barrier with our Thai staff). However, much effort and resource is still needed for cleanup/repair/rebuild.On this note, we’re reaching out to the community for help. We’re selling off most of our ‘mother’ fig trees. These are very large trees in huge pots that you can move to ground or larger containers or raised beds. Several varieties, shapes and sizes. Many are already setting fruits.Name your own price, with minimum at around 500-1,000 thb.Local pickup in Chaam only.Please send us a message to arrange a pickup time.
