Borneo Happy Farm
A Nice Place To Visit

Borneo Happy Farm is an eco-tourism attraction where you can interact with farm animals and see more exotic creatures amid pleasant surroundings. The farm is spread over 70 acres and includes the cultivation of local crops such as pepper, rubber, tropical fruits and vegetables, the raising of horses, goats, sheep and buffalo as well as aquaculture. A further 60 acres has been left in its semi-natural forested state.

Borneo Happy Farm started out as an orchard in 1999 and was converted into an eco-tourism project in 2017. It is mainly intended for school and group visits, team building activities, local parents with children and foreign and domestic tourists. Even senior citizens like me can find things to enjoy here!

At the Arowana Pond you can buy bags of fish food for the arowana or watch one of the fish feeding showtimes (see timings below).

A solitary 100+ year old Tapang tree, a member of the legume family, is located at the farm. The Tapang Tree or Honey Bee Tree (koompassia excelsa) is capable of growing up to an impressive 85 metres thanks to the support of their massive buttress roots. As the name suggests, they are often used by giant honey bees to build their hives, up to 10 hives per tree. Although the wood is highly prized for furniture they are protected and it is taboo to fell these trees in Sarawak and only naturally fallen timber can be used. Locals believe the tree is inhabited by spirits.

How To Get to Borneo Happy Farm

Self-driving is the best way. It takes around 40 minutes from downtown Kuching. There is ample free parking. If not, Grab taxi will get you there but you need to arrange pick-up for your return journey as it is slightly off the beaten track.
