About

What this is, and who it's for

Regenerative Farms of Southeast Asia is a map of working farms across Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos. It's for the traveler or chef trying to find a real one, and for the farm trying to be found. It's early — the map fills in as farms claim their listings.

If you're a traveler or a chef

Start on the map. Open a pin and you get the farm's own contact details — you reach out to them directly, never through us. The listing says what the farm says, and nothing more.

If you're a farm

We're inviting farms one at a time, as we find them. If we've written to you, your invitation carries a link straight to your listing. If we haven't reached you yet, use "Run a farm? Start here" at the foot of this page. Being listed is free, and that doesn't change.

What's here today

The map. Seven countries, filling in one farm at a time as farms claim their listings. Each country page says plainly how far along it is.

Claim and Identity Verified. A farm claims its own listing for free. Claiming confirms a real person is behind it — that's what "Identity Verified" means: a person confirmed, not a practices audit.

Field Notes. Long-form writing about farms in this region — free to read, no account needed.

What members get

Once a farm's listing is confirmed, the member side opens: discussion boards where farms talk shop, calls for contribution — the pieces we're writing that member farms can be part of — a circle of farms that pledge to follow each other's work, and guides written for the farms on the network. It's a small network, maintained by hand, and it grows one farm at a time.

Not built yet: booking, ordering, or payments. You contact the farm directly, and everything after that happens off this site. We don't certify or audit how anyone farms.

Why

Real farms, found.

Good farms are easy to miss. A lot of the best growing in Southeast Asia happens on land with no sign out front and no website behind it — the kind of place a traveler or a chef would want to find, if there were any way to find it. This network exists to make that search possible: real farms, added by the people who grow them, shown plainly for what they are. A listing that says less is a listing that has less to say — not a gap we paper over with a stock photo.

How claiming and Identity Verified work

We compile farms we believe are real and regenerative from public sources, then invite them one at a time. Nothing about a farm is public until that farm claims it — a prepared listing sits off the map and never carries Identity Verified until someone claims it. An invited farm claims with the link we send: a name, a role at the farm, and a phone or WhatsApp number, and the listing shows "Identity Verified" the moment the claim lands. A farm we haven't reached yet asks first, and we check by hand before anything goes live. Read the badge exactly as written — we've confirmed a real person tied to the farm made the claim. It is not an audit of how the farm grows. We don't inspect anyone's fields, and whatever a farm tells us about its practices is self-reported and stays that way. We spot-check every claim within 48 to 72 hours, and any farm can ask to come off the map at any time.

This network is maintained by a small team that works with member farms directly — guides, written features, and help getting their own work out.
