Tucked away in Pursat province, “Moly’s Mixed-Farming Garden” represents a vibrant community deeply rooted in the diverse agricultural offerings of local farmers.
The garden specialises in local goods, showcasing the bounty of the region’s fruits, vegetables, fish and meat.
Yun Sarin, the community’s founding visionary, embarked on this venture after witnessing the difficulties faced by local farmers.
Struggling to find markets for their carefully grown and harvested produce, Sarin saw an opportunity.
As a well-connected young man, adept in the ways of social media, he used his influence to establish a market for his region’s produce.
“We initially focused on lemons – a product in high demand and scarce supply. We managed to distribute about 200 to 500kg daily,” Sarin explained.
The mixed-farming garden’s offerings have since evolved, featuring seasonal fruits and vegetables, including oranges, rambutan, passion fruit, durian,
