Chaophya Park grows its own
BANGKOK – Chaophya Park Hotel Bangkok has a surprise in store for guests – it’s own organically grown vegetables.
The hotel’s green ambition was initiated in 2008 utilising vacant land near the hotel’s golf driving range.
The vegetables are grown without the aide of chemical fertilisers, herbicides or pesticides.
The vege patch is, as its name suggests, wholly organic. A number of hydroponic items are also being grown under carefully controlled conditions, using only natural rainwater and sunlight.
The leafy garden also houses a mushroom nursery surrounded by herbaceous shrubs of Chinese kale, celery, cucumber, lettuce, spinach and many other greens and herbs.
A substantial portion of the top quality produce is transferred to the Chaophya Park Hotel kitchens ready to be served in various outlets throughout the property, while a selection is being packaged under the Park Organic Veggies own label.
Plans are in hand to produce a wide range of food and meat gods, as well as also sauces, under the Park Organic brand.
