Preserving the fleeting gifts of the soil
The factory grew naturally from the farm. When the harvest is abundant, sometimes more than the market can take, we look for ways to honor every fruit and leaf. Some vegetables may be perfectly fresh but not as pretty, and fruits often ripen all at once in their season. Instead of waste, we choose transformation. The factory is here to support the farm — preserving the vitality of our harvest, respecting the rhythm of nature, and creating food that nourishes beyond its season.
Every crop carries the care of soil, sun, and hands, and none of it should be lost. In today′s world, many people are too busy to cook fresh, relying on heavy processed food that fills the stomach but not the body′s deeper needs. Processing for us is not about convenience. It is about extending the life of our high-quality harvests, so even the busiest lives can still touch real food and its energy. Each product is first made for ourselves, with the principle that it must nourish and replenish the body — only then do we share it.
We honor the wisdom of our elders — fermenting fruits into enzyme juices, preserving radish and ginger, crafting natural sourdough. At the same time, we embrace gentle modern methods like low-temperature dehydration and spray-drying, protecting the nutrients and vitality within.
Our ingredients remain simple and honest. Aside from essentials like natural salt, nothing refined, bleached, or chemical enters our process. What we create is not ultra-processed, but carefully preserved food that still carries the spirit of the farm.

Earning HACCP and GMP certification is no small task. These international food safety systems demand discipline, documentation, and strict control over every step of production. The modern food industry often sees safety as eliminating every microbe, sterilizing food until it is lifeless, engineered to sit on shelves for years.
But living food is different. Healthy, life-force food is meant to be alive — full of natural enzymes, beneficial microbes, and vitality that the body can recognize. It is this life within the food that gives us energy, balance, and strength.
For us, the challenge is to hold both truths: to meet the highest food safety standards while still protecting the life within. It means crafting systems that respect hygiene and safety, yet never compromising the quality and living essence of our products.

Our products are not made for mass production, but to preserve vitality and offer true nourishment. Each one carries the story of the farm into another form:
Sprouting unlocks nature′s hidden energy. Seeds, grains, and legumes awaken, becoming richer in vitamins, minerals, proteins, and enzymes. We designed a careful, non-linear pipeline for sprouted products, handling each batch with patience. The result is food that boosts immunity, aids digestion, and replenishes vitality — a living connection from soil to body.
From our signature Organic Papaya Powder to fruit-based enzyme juices, our enzyme range carries both tradition and science. Enzymes support digestion, strengthen immunity, and preserve fruits in their most natural form. Crafted only with fruits from our farm, these products bring the ancient method of fermentation into daily life, offering both nourishment and delight.
We also create artisanal foods that reflect our farm′s rhythm: organic sourdough bread and crackers, tempeh chips, seasonal jams and pickles, preserved radish and ginger, even traditionally brewed soy sauce and bean paste. Each one is small-batch, minimally processed, and made with the same care we give to our soil — wholesome, flavorful, and true.
Our products are not made for mass production, but to preserve vitality and offer true nourishment. Each one carries the story of the farm into another form:
The factory is where abundance finds new life. Sprouted, fermented, or handcrafted, each creation carries the spirit of the soil into forms you can bring home.
For the sake of peace, we must look back at war.
In 1942, the Japanese Empire invaded the Malay Peninsula, capturing Singapore and spreading conflict to Negeri Sembilan. Yulanglang Village, west of Titi, once flourished with over 200 households, schools, shops, a brick factory, a tin mine, and more.
On the morning of March 18, 1942, over a hundred Japanese soldiers entered the village on horseback. Claiming to ″check residence permits″, they gathered men, women, and children at Yi Qun School. Villagers, unsuspecting, were then taken in groups and brutally executed, women and children included. By nightfall, the soldiers burned the village to the ground.
That single night, 1,474 innocent lives were lost. The village was reduced to ashes, and the fire-lit sky of Yulanglang left an indelible mark on the memory of Titi.
In 1976, to honor the victims and give the remains a proper resting place, a memorial was built. Today, it stands as a solemn witness, reminding future generations that peace is precious, and history must never be forgotten.
Peace is hard-won; the lessons of history must endure.

Before joining the farm, Chensy′s lifestyle led to serious health challenges. It was through the organic way of living that she regained strength — a journey that reshaped her life.
Now she leads with purpose, managing daily operations and guiding workshops. By sharing her own story, she hopes to inspire others to care for their health and embrace the wisdom of nature.
Lun grew up a city boy, more familiar with screens than soil. Years in the design and animation industry left him burnt out and unwell, until he returned to the farm in 2010.
The transition was tough, he had to unlearn and relearn, but through learning each step of farming, he discovered the joy of nature and the meaning behind his father′s vision. Today, Lun continues that path, weaving new ideas into the roots of Titi Eco Farm.
The story of Titi Eco Farm, when recalled, truly comes alive through the invaluable support of the family. Their contributions have been profoundly meaningful throughout the farm’s journey, making it a genuine family-run organic enterprise.
Beyond Mr. Lim, two other names are consistently mentioned when discussing Titi Eco Farm: Mdm They Chan and Mdm Elaine They. These three individuals were the “Superman & Superwomen” who championed the farm from its inception until the late 2010s.
Mdm They Chan, Mr. Lim’s wife, not only manages the farm’s finances but also plays a vital role in guiding visitors. She passionately educates them about the fascinating facts of organic farming and the importance of food sources. During her engaging farm tours, she captivates audiences with countless stories, ensuring that children, especially, always have a fun and enriching experience.
Mdm Elaine They, Mr. Lim’s sister-in-law, is renowned for her dedication to a “raw organic diet.” Visitors to Titi Eco Farm are often delighted by the signature Ulam Salad Roll, a delicious creation featuring passion fruit-pickled raw papaya and a variety of local herbs, conceived by Elaine herself. Her unforgettable Hibiscus Flower breakfast is another highlight. People are consistently inspired by her “organic” practices, particularly her culinary approach, often surprised by how incredibly delicious healthy food can be.
Two more key figures deserve mention: Mr. They Soon Kiat and Mr. Te Son Tuan, both brothers-in-law. Both reside on the farm. Mr. They Soon Kiat oversees all aspects of farm management, from handling foreign workers to managing repairs and maintenance. Meanwhile, Mr. Te Son Tuan is the talented carpenter of Titi Eco Farm. Every wooden craft found throughout the farmland, including the distinctive cement typo block installed at the entrance, is his handcrafted creation.
In 1996, Mr. Lim left behind a thriving engineering career after discovering a pristine piece of land in Titi. That encounter rekindled his childhood dream of living close to nature, and Titi Eco Farm was born in 1997.
For over two decades, he has lived and shared the organic way — believing that true health is grown from the soil, not found in hospitals. His greatest wish is to see more farms return to organic roots, healing both people and the earth.
