About Farmer 关于农夫
q 雷梅诗 Loi Meishy
一开始是因为对自身的质疑及对未来的感到迷茫而当起农夫,间中经历了不切实际的种种挫折打击,以为迷失了却意外地让自己认清自我,也对未来有更宽怀的希望。2009开始在槟城浮罗山背榴莲园里混,2013年迁到槟城湖内农业局继续发展,在同年也与一群热爱生活及环境的朋友开始蔓慢生活市集。
In 2008 After university majoring in special education feeling lost and unsure about the future, I started being a organic farmer out of chance. Ever since then, my life have changed to much inner awareness and vast positivity about the future have risen. In 2009 my first farm debut on top of Balik Pulau, a hilly area in Penang island taking care of a large piece of durian orchard. In 2013, due to land issues I have moved to the low land in Relau and created Wonder Wilderfarm. At the same time, together with some friends who are passionate about life, we started Màn Màn Market, the first consistant small scale organic farmers market holding

2013年應離開了時尚攝影圈子從新加坡來到了馬來西亞,很幸運的上了活力農耕的課程,就在當時和梅詩有了一面之緣。過後去了幾個有機園和一家有機店(justlife)實行,也去了印度進修活力農耕。2014年正式在森美蘭州的外婆家後面的榴蓮園開始務農,在一些低潮和迷茫的情形中研發了第一個自己園裡的農產品。2015年在機緣巧合下被好友召去檳城一起研究有機手作加工食品,讓食物有了新的生命,很自然的三個月後,我們都找到了各自想要去的地方。2015年的9月28號我正式加入了野逸園,其實務農的時間比之前少了很多但卻擔當了研發加工食品和農創美術的角色,我愛上了野逸園和在這裡的人,野逸園和這裡的人也愛上了我。很快的我也愛上了蔓慢市集,現在是有很享受每個月為市集手繪海報的過程但是也很期待有人加入一起把一些蔓慢可以有的生活空間實現, 我想蔓慢會越來越好玩。
After being in photography for around 5 years, In 2013 I left fashion photography and came to Malaysia from Singapore. I was very fortunate to come across a course on Biodynamic farming at that time, that is also when I've met Meishy for the 1st time. And off i went to a couple of farms as a volunteer to learn the basics of being a farmer, went for on-site training at a organic shop (Justlife) and also went to India (Tamil Nadu) for further training in biodynamic farming. My farming life officially started on the year of 2014 on a durian orchard that belongs to my grandma, During some depressed and confused situation as a starting farmer, I began to develop my first processed food from the farm. In year 2015, it seemed fated that I was to relocate to Penang and further develop organic food processing with another farmer, that is actually when I have to keep visiting Meishy at her farm and take fresh produce from her for processing. In 2015 28th Sept, I officially started my role in Wonder Wilderfarm. As my main focus is carpentry, food processing, design and marketing, time spent touching the soil has gradually decreased as well but i have fallen in love with this place and the person here. Soon I began to also fall in love with Màn Màn Market, I love it when i can draw a new piece of art work for the market's new poster every month and I look forward to have more like minded individuals joining in to make things come true together, making Màn Màn Market as vibrant as it can be!
