In October, 2009, we have our special visitors...
... Janet, Beckey and Adam to our orchard. They were treated to...
... some of our very special durian.
This is our very special species from Thailand. Just see the size of it!Many people find visiting the Saba Orchard interesting because many city dwellers have never saw how a pineapple plant looks like; the colourful chicken with feathers; duck actually float on water; watching fish eating their baits; the boat is not so easy to row; durian actually grows on trunk; you pick durian and not pluck them off the tree; etc ....
... so they must have watched Ben Hur movie and tried to experiment with this farm cart...
... and that durian is not bad after all! These little children simply love durian and ate so much ...
... our expat friends tried durian and many actually like durian very much.
Anyway, it is now the tail end of durian season. If you have not visited the farm to eat all you can for RM15, this weekend is perhaps the last opportunity for this season. So, please SMS Winni for the latest news.
If you don't sms Winni before hand, there may be no one to pick you up at Lambir National Park carpark at 7:30AM or 1:30PM on both Saturday and Sunday.
On the 3rd Oct 2009, there were two groups of visitors to the farm. They all have a good time. It was a first for many visitors to see durian trees and life in a farm. Many of them tasted mangoesteen for the first time.
Also, the simple act of paddling a boat was a fun experience for kids. Thanks to Austin who seems to have endless energy to bring people around!
Oh, the children enjoy fishing the cat fish in the "transparent" tank where they can see the fish fallen into the trap!
Ok... enjoy the slideshow. Click here. for a larger viewer.

Other than feasting on durians, there are many other activities you could do:
... enjoy the view and nature ...
... perhaps recalling your childhood days under a tree ...
... or study the nature ...
... you may try your luck to fish in our ponds...
... even try to do a little boating and seeing the fish in the pond...
... or just walk around the acres of land... up and down the slope to burn the extra calories ...
... or to climb a tree!

We realised that not everyone is adventurous and would drive to the farm in order to eat durians or our other fruits. So, we make the following options for your convenience:
You organise your own "durian party" and we deliver to your choice of venue, be it office, restaurant, your home, etc. You just name the venue, time and number of people who would like to come for the feasting!
Alternatively, you may bring your party to our residence in Miri. Of course you don't get the joy to pick the fruit from the farm! But, you will get to eat the same quality fruits from our orchard!
If you are not so much into eating durian but would still like to visit the farm in order to enjoy the environment, we still welcome you. Please let us know in advance so that we can arrange a different meal for you - Sarawak Laksa!
We look forward to see you...
I think she truly enjoys her "meal" of durian!
... oh, if you are not that much into eating durian, we also serve good home cook Sarawak Laksa. But please do let us know in advance.
