FROM OUR LOCAL FARMS
Hi, my name is Marcella Mioretta. You can call me Mio. I am a woman from a big city who returned to my family home in a small city on the island of Flores to help the farmers. I founded an association called "Yayasan Kiku Liluk" to guide our farmers to manage their farms to produce the best products to market to both domestic and international customers. Our products are all locally processed to assure single source designation and maintain our rural economy.
​
Our abroad customers can easily facilitate their purchase from our association which compies with Indonesian requirements in order to have a permit to export.
Farm products from Flores farmers are because they are planted and processed in the traditional way. Volcanic soil makes vegetables and agricultural products in Flores grow with good quality. In addition, Flores farmers do not use chemical fertilizers but use environmentally friendly compost and maintain a clean ground and use insect traps to minimize pests.
