Flowers are just the beginning of our story....
What truly sets us apart is how and why grow them.
Sustainable by Design
We believe that great flowers start with great soil and good intentions. Our farming philosophy blends tradition with innovation:
-
Minimal chemical use, relying primarily on organic practices
-
Sheep-rearing on-site, with composted manure enriching our soil naturally
-
Integrated pest management (IPM) for a balanced, eco-friendly approach
-
Careful rotation and soil health monitoring to ensure long-term sustainability
-
We’re proud to be environmentally conscious growers who aim for a light footprint and a lasting impact.
Our People & Our Community
Zambarao is more than a farm—it’s part of a community. From day one, we’ve made it our mission to grow alongside our neighbors, not just our flowers.
We run a school feeding program at the local primary school, ensuring that children have the nourishment they need to learn. We’ve also invested in:
-
Classroom renovations and furniture
-
The school’s first-ever library, stocked with over 1,000 books and learning materials
-
Regular community clean-up, mentorship, and back-to-school drives
For us, success is measured not only in stems per box but also in smiles per child.
