Sustainable Farming and Forest Restoration with Syntropic Principles

A Mission with Many Side Effects!

Our mission is to grow agricultural crops more sustainably and simultaneously restore the forests of Borneo. Using syntropic principles inspired by Ernst Götsch’s philosophy, we renounce the use of pesticides and fertilizers, harnessing the power and skills of nature to create a biodiverse and thriving ecosystem.
With the surplus yield, we buy tree seedlings to restore a degraded forest patch in Bukit Piton, benefiting wildlife diversity, especially the endangered Orangutans, and mitigating climate change.

Founded in 2010 (formerly Brother's Cycling), we are based in Lahad Datu and currently run one syntropic field site nearby, with hopes of establishing many more sites across Sabah. We support farmers in their endeavor to transform traditional agricultural fields into a syntropic agroforestry system.

Join us on our journey, and if you want, come test our products at HAK’s Supper Club!

“Life magnifies resources, transforms them in order to generate more. Man on his race towards the end of his civilisation does the contrary: he exploits resources, reduces and consumes them in order to generate litter."  Ernst Götsch
