Rice planting at Hang Tueng Farm - Must-do experience in Chiang Mai - My husband and I had the most wonderful experience at Hang Tueng Farm. This was truly the most unique experience we've had in Chiang Mai, and I highly recommend booking their signature package. From my first correspondence with them to book the experience, right through to the end – everything was perfect! I organized this experience as a surprise gift for my husband for a very special occasion. When we arrived at the farm, we were warmly greeted by Em, who gave me a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers and a refreshing herbal drink – what a fantastic start! We were provided with farming clothes, boots, arm covers, and gloves, and once we were ready, the fun began. The farm itself is well-laid out and incredibly peaceful. We were guided by Em, a lovely Thai lady who spoke excellent English, and Uncle Serd, a professional farmer. After feeding and showering Raima, the buffalo, we took a short break in one of the huts, where they treated us to fresh coconuts to hydrate – even the timing of this break was perfect. They even had a sharp bamboo stick to pierce the coconut, which was a sweet touch. Throughout the experience, Em kindly took videos and photos of us. We learned various techniques for uprooting rice, and my favorite part was the actual rice planting. This was a first-ever experience for us, and the sensation of mud on our feet was both novel and fun! After the rice planting, they prepared the most delicious green curry for us, followed by mango sticky rice for dessert. As a gift, they gave us umbrellas to paint – another thoughtful touch! We loved every moment of our time at this farm. Everything was so well-organized. Thank you so much, Hang Tueng Farm, for the wonderful experience – it’s a memory we’ll cherish for life. Your farm deserves to be included in every list of must-do activities in Chiang Mai.
