Sweetest way to be good with nature - to have your own cacao tree!
In a picturesque area of Nakhon SI Thammarat there is a charming place on a river, which is coming from the big waterfall in 5 km on the west down to the sea on the East in 10 km. All that providing every day here by wonderful sunrises and sunsets. Here is the home of small family cocoa farm, hidden from the road leading to the Khao Nan National park and mentioned waterfall Sunanta. Cacao loves lots of water, what is always available, and there are no any fertilisers used, except the organic additives coming from the farm itself. Here you can choose your cocoa tree, right with a big green and yellow cocoa pods on its trunk & branches, buy it and enjoy it for the rest of Time.
Catch the moment savoring the exquisite chocolate, which is made from the beans of your own cacao tree, where all done as you wanted - drying, roasting and cooking.
Or visit your tree and relax on a nature with its unrepeatable panoramic river views, while tasting the cocoa shake or new recipe of chocolate - that's what awaits you here at the farm. Many of us - chocolate lovers - don't remember the first meeting with chocolate or cacao, but this moment - tasting the choco-something from your own cocoa tree - not gonna be missed!

Trees in holy texts
According to Vedas - planting a tree it is a very favourable act. Most of people today live in cities, play in other games and don't have a space for planting a trees. So in addition to other, here we making the first step to return some of us - city-dwellers - to the nature in its best. We will post some of the samples of that below.

Goddess Parvati planted the Ashoka tree and honoring it as Her son.
Being one of the Great Sages - Richi -She invited other 7 Rishis to run the rite to sanctify the tree. Rishis asked her: "O Goddess, only you can set-up the ritual of tree planting as a Rule. What is a reason to honour the tree as a son?" Devi answered: "If wise man digging the well in a village without the water - he will enjoy in Heaven as much, as much water in this well. Pool is equal to 10 of same wells, pond is uqual to 10 pools. Daughter, being marry, equal to 10 ponds, and one sacrifice is same as 10 daughters. One son equal to 10 of sacrifices, and one tree equal to the 10 sons. This is my Rule, its invariable and valid in all the worlds. When the destroyed is reborning, reward for that is doubled". That's was a Birthday of Ganesha. Birthday of Ganesh - Skanda-Purana: chapter One, 2-nd part of "Kumarikha Khande", post 27 |
This story happens In Thailand - because of of three happy accidents - what together gives us the inspiration and idea. Idea to create the concept and open the first and only-in-a-kind Tree Owners Club. First and one we believe not for long time.
1. We just created Kalos Fund, and run it according to the main plan - to make World better through creating new interesting startups in tourism & holiday property business.
2. By chance, going to see one famous waterfall we found the Cocoa farm - probably the only one in Thailand. In addition to the farm there is river-view resort on-site belongs to the owning family - we decided to stay here longer when awaked and saw the riverside. Its located between the beach and waterfall, in easy acess from port & airport and close to few other waterfalls, beaches and temples;
3. Having limited amount of trees, personnel of farm supported the tree owners with desired additional services - up to making the chocolate from the trees of individual owners, packaging it to keep for their arrival and even send it by post worldwide (available now).

So, the "Tree Owners Club" was born. From that first meeting we spent certain amount of time here in a farm - with trees and people who takes care about them. We met and talk to locals around, guests of resort, invited our friends and relatives, including some people from the island where we were staying before, with many others we shared some thoughts online (without making any social campaigns yet). People loves the plan and added some useful tips - how they want to own the tree and use it, what they want on holidays and so on. Among those who's been here at farm most are planning to come back. Others already tried the chocolate and want more. So, we collected list of notes and composed list of benefits for the buyers - on what terms our members wants to own the cocoa tree, what they need before paying for it, and what extra-services they require for total comfort. After some time of working on that here are two kinds of services, which provided by farm. Related to Cacao, there are many options what you will not find anywhere else - starting from location and ending with chocolate taste.

"Buying quite often some chocolate bars in the 7/11 I never knew that Cacao trees feel them also good in Thailand. So its great that now life in Nakhon Si Thammarat gave us as a chocolate lovers a chance to make our special-unique-natural-organic chocolate! The difference between that homemade chocolate and the one from the shops is so huge that my English is not enough to describe it. But its more or less enough to briefly show the full process how to create your own chocolate, syrup and special shakes .
