Pouik Pouik Farm is an experimental ecofarm and circular living lab nestled in the lush landscapes of Sabah, Borneo. Born from a desire to transform underused land into a living laboratory, our farm explores practical, low-tech solutions that connect humans, animals, and plants in resilient, circular systems.
From compost toilets that nourish the soil, to self-composting cat litter, rocket stoves, and flood-resilient techniques, every element is designed to demonstrate sustainable, regenerative living in action. Our small sanctuary for rescued animals is cared for using holistic medicine, plants, and natural remedies, reflecting our commitment to all forms of life.
Pouik Pouik Farm is a place for students, researchers, and curious minds to learn through experience, experiment freely, and share knowledge. Our principles are simplicity, authenticity, circularity, and resilience.
Through hands-on practice, storytelling, and playful content, we aim to inspire communities to adopt practical solutions for sustainable living. Our aspiration is to connect with other ecovillages, fostering a network of regenerative practices across Asia and beyond.
