Discover 2 Nature & Agriculture Learning Destinations in Chiang Rai: From Organic Fertilizer to Microgreen Growing
Discover a different side of Chiang Rai through two learning destinations that transform local agricultural knowledge, soil care, and safe farming practices into engaging hands-on experiences.
Chiang Rai Province, through the Chiang Rai Provincial Office of Tourism and Sports in collaboration with Chiang Rai City Municipality, is implementing the Chiangrai–Chiangmai Learning City: Knowledge Linked Tourism project, connecting 20 learning destinations across six categories. The Nature & Agriculture Learning Journey highlights two Chiang Rai destinations where visitors can explore natural resources, agricultural practices, and community knowledge through hands-on activities.
Ban Huai San Phlap Phla — Discover the Community Fertilizer Bar
At Ban Huai San Phlap Phla in Mae Lao District, Chiang Rai, the “Community Fertilizer Bar” introduces participants to the village’s organic fertilizer-making process, from selecting and mixing materials to soil improvement. The experience also explores local resource management, community self-reliance, and Doi Chang organic tea production, from cultivation and harvesting to processing.
Pa Ngio–Hong Li Safe Agriculture Learning Center — Mix Your Own Soil for Microgreens
At the Pa Ngio–Hong Li Safe Agriculture Learning Center in Mueang Chiang Rai, the “Custom Soil Mixing for Microgreens” workshop introduces participants to growing media and soil preparation. Learning stations also cover vegetable cultivation, planting, crop care, composting, and soil improvement, helping visitors understand safe vegetable production.
These two destinations demonstrate how nature and agriculture can become meaningful learning experiences. By exploring soil, plants, and community knowledge, travelers gain practical insights that extend beyond their visit, reflecting the concept “Every Place Is a Classroom, Every Journey Is a Learning Experience.”
