Thai Buffalo Farming Experience – RY Marketplace

Highlights

– Rice uprooting and planting- Harvesting grass for the buffalo- Buffalo feeding and bathing

– Wear farmer outfit

Description
This trip will bring you back to the roots of Thai people. Thailand is an agricultural-based country and rice has been rooted in our cultures for over 5,000 years. In the past, we do not have any machine to help with rice planting and that is why each house will raise a couples of buffalos to help with the plowing. You will get to plant and uproot the rice as well as feeding the cute buffalo by the grass you harvested. After that, you will get to enjoy delicious food and herbal drink to end this wonderful trip.

But don’t worry, your City Manager is here to help and will do their best to come up with a solution if an event is affected. We understand that everyone’s schedule is different, so while we can’t guarantee a make-up option will work for everyone, we promise to try our hardest. If you’re unable to attend the make-up date, no problem – we’ll give you a full refund for your booking.
