‘Masayang buhay, masaganang ani’ at Our Farm Republic!
Years ago, the Santiagos stood with a vision: to build a farm that brings people back to the soil, and back to their roots. This dream has blossomed into a Department of Tourism-accredited agri-tourism destination and a Department of Agriculture-certified learning site for organic agriculture. This dream gave birth to Our Farm Republic.
Our Farm Republic (OFR) spans 5.6 hectares of lush greenery for the living and non-living. Mornings begin with the golden light bathing the fields, the air thick with the promise of fresh harvests. As you walk through the farm’s winding trails, with assistance from passionate farm guides, you’ll encounter rows of organic vegetables thriving under the Pangasinan sun. Nearby, native pigs grunt contentedly in their pens, chickens peck at the earth, and turkeys strut freely. You might find yourself elbow-deep in compost during a vermiculture demo, learning how worms help build healthier soil. Or perhaps you’ll be handpicking vegetables for your lunch.
