Lun didn’t frequently went to his father’s Organic Farm until he joined his father in 2010. From a city boy to a nature boy, Lun found his true self and continued his father’s vision to run Titi Eco Farm.
Grew up and raised in the city, like many others, Lun was definitely a 100% city boy, and had more connection with computer games, gadgets and technologies than the nature.
After 5 years working in local Design & Animation industry, Lun felt lost and tired in never ending rushing deadlines and countless stay up night. In return of all accomplishment in the industry, he already had mild health problem in his late 20s due to very bad lifestyle.
He thought of a change but didn’t know where to start. Mr Lim, his father given him a chance to try and help out the business while Lun thinking of his next step. It was not an easy job for Lun and he had to start fresh and start low. Slowly picking up skills he had never taught, Lun started to understand the philosophy of his father’s work, and found joy in nature like his father did.
In 1996, Mr Lim fall in love with a piece of clean land at Titi, from an engineer, he switched his career and started his new venture in organic farming. Hence, Titi Eco Farm was built and established in 1997.
As a strong proponent of organic food, Mr Lim advocates healthy lifestyle over the last 20 years. He eats, lives and talks organic. He loves to share his experiences in wellness journey, and getting more people go organic!
Grown up in a farmer family, Mr Lim lived close to nature and developed strong connection with nature since young. He started his career as an engineer in his 20s. However due to busy work life over the years, he suffered from health problem at the peak of his career. In his middle age, he realized the importance of adopting healthier lifestyle through balance diet, regular exercise, and maintains a happy state of mind.
Opportunity in going organic sparked when he attended a health talk by Dr. Lai Jiu- nan, the founder of Lapis Lazuli Light. Inspired by her sharing on “Body, Mind & Soul”, Mr Lim wanted to go back to the farmland in a way that would not harm the natural beauty of the earth and live a more sustainable life.
Mr Lim’s biggest wish is having more conventional farm business turning towards organic farming and production. As the proverb says, “Build more organic farm, eventually reduce the need of hospital”.
