100% Awesome.

Definitely one of the best days spent on my Thailand trip, Chef Lat and Cam are both amazing talented people, with so many skills to share. The food we cooked was so delicious. You get more than a cooking class, if you are also interested in sustainable farming and aqauponics this is for you.
Highly recommend I will be returning the next time I’m in Samui 🙂

Amazing day making incredible food!

Lat (the chef) was so welcoming and enthusiastic. We really enjoyed seeing their home farm and picking the ingredients we would then cook with. It was very well organised and friendly. The food we made and had there was the best we’ve had in Thailand. We made 3 dishes over the day. Lats husband Cam was really interesting to talk to about the techniques used on the farm as well as traveling and photography (they have an onsite gallery). It’s great fun for couples or solo travelers. Would definitely recommend, and we will be making the food again when we get home!!!!

Harriet F – UK

Fun, interesting, friendly, delicious cooking and sustainable farming

A few words from the family – interactive, fun, engaging, you get to lean about cooking and organic farming, great for adults and kids, staff are kind and friendly, authentic, very well organised, very good instructions.

Max D – Australia

Best cooking class and cultural experience ever!

I have done quite a few cooking classes all over the world and this was absolutely the best experience, for so many reasons. Not only was chef Lat and her staff the most wonderful hosts, but they were so generous and forthcoming with useful information on how they set up their organic farm, we learned so much and are inspired to try some of it ourselves! Highly recommended.

Danielle S – UK

Fantastic Experience

We had a great day an Island Organics, probably because it’s so much more than just a cooking class. Lat is very welcoming and fills the day with humour, starting in her organic vegetable garden and onto cooking a feast of Thai dishes. She made it seem incredibly easy. The highlight of the day was making (and drinking spoonfuls) of coconut cream and milk ! A must do on Samui !

Our Story

2012

Having been settled on Koh Samui since 2004 and enjoying all the island has to offer we decided on a complete change of lifestyle and in 2012 we discovered our small piece of paradise and created our lifelong dream – Island Organics Samui. 6 years later we now grow our own pure organic food for our family of 5…

2013

After clearing the land and discovering the soil was nutrient deficient we were devastated but realized there was no turning back so we began the lengthy task of researching how to rejuvenate the soil. After months of searching the internet we concluded this was more than possible and began brewing compost teas, built a wormery, purchased some hens and got to work ! Our compost stations became bigger and bigger which in turn was fed into our raised garden beds. Yes, it was serious hard work !

2014

Having spent a year perfecting our compost tea fertilizers we began to see a vast difference in the soil condition and our crops were able to maintain a healthy exterior. We then made a Facebook page for the gardens and word quickly spread across the island / world. Executive chef’s were calling us from resorts such as Four Season Samui and so on. They wanted our organic, locally grown produce. For a while we were able to maintain a steady supply but then we decided that Lat should combine her lifelong passion of gardening and cooking and invite guests to come and enjoy the experience as a whole.

2015

Island Organics Thai Cooking Class was born and off to an overwhelming start with classes filling fast. We were quiet literally caught off guard and didn’t expect the word to travel so quickly.

Several Bangkok Air in-flight features soon followed then an email from Getaway TV – Australia’s leading travel program. They asked if it would be ok to bring a film crew and celebrity TV host Tim Blackwell and spend the day in the gardens and kitchen learning traditional Thai cooking with soon to be famed Chef Lat. Of course we accepted!

2016

Classes continued and we built on our knowledge and experience of how to keep the produce coming for our many classes and in June we had another baby girl – Aurora ! Now this makes 3 daughters. This same year we were chosen as the premier cooking site on Koh Samui for the reality TV program X-On the Beach series from the UK.

2017

As classes became busier in the kitchen for Chef Lat and she continued to perfect her craft, Cam decided it was time to master his Aquaponic techniques and embarked on a journey that lead to him becoming a qualified commercial designer of such organic systems. We now grow talapia fish onsite as a food / protein source for our family as well as fresh organic salads and greens all within a closed loop sustainable growing system. It’s called Aqauponics and you will discover this incredible eco system as part of your organic micro farm tour with Chef Lat.

2018
