Ladybird Organic Farm

Alhamdulillah for such a gorgeous day to be out and about in fresh air and sunshine!











The drive to Jalan Broga in Semenyih was not difficult at all as we followed the route to University of Nottingham from Country Heights. It is on the same side of the road as the university, just about 2 km farther down. 

Entrance was free, and we were allowed to freely roam on the farm. Workers went about their routine, insects buzzed without bothering us. Only a gaggle of geese honked loudly and cheerfully to greet us from their paddock which was a delightful treat for city kids.

The kids had a brief session of walkabout and came face to face with food source not already washed, processed, packed and placed onto shelves. They were amazed by the fact that their food were still rooted to the ground and growing! 

Priceless expressions on their city faces as they discovered earth, ant, sand, farm dog (which looked fierce and scared the kids just a wee bit), fish pond and met walking and talking farmers they have previously only seen in books (wow!). We did not get to the rabbits and cockrel cages as it was noon and just too hot.

The farm delivers organic produce to homes nearby and our request for KLCC was politely declined on the spot due to distance and traffic jam. If you live within Semenyih, Kajang and Bangi then you are in luck!

You may look it up on Facebook or ring Mr David at +6016-2634863 for group arrangements. It is open daily from 7.30am to 7.30pm. Entrance is free for free and easy roam, organised guided tour is RM10 per person. Meals can be pre-arranged too. 

Location: Ladybird Organic Farm, Lot 1731, Batu 25,Jalan Broga,43500 Semenyih, Selangor Darul Ehsan. (near University of Nottingham Malaysia campus)
GPS Coordinates: 2.939158, 101.898488


Hope you will enjoy this organic farm as much as we did *big smile* Happy Federal Territory Day/Blessed Thaipusam/ happy holidays!
