ShuCaiGe (GPS: 5.454057, 100.297599) is an aquaponic vegetable farm in Tanjung Bungah, Penang. This is where you can find vegetables being grown utilising the aquaponic system, without resorting to pesticides or chemical fertilisers. The produce does not contain any form of chemical contamination and does not add pollution to the environment.
ShuCaiGe offers a green and self-sustaining environment for microbes to convert waste materials produced by fishes into fertiliser for the vegetables. The vegetables in turn absorb the nutrients and purify the water for the fishes, so water is always recycled.
ShuCaiGe operates a greenhouse with multi-layer racks that require minimal space to grow a large variety of vegetables including lettuce, kale, bok choy and others for the local market. Clients for ShuCaiGe vegetables include restaurants, cafés, hotels and the general public. The farm welcomes enquiries from food businesses as well as from the general public.
ShuCaiGe Aquaponic Farm has also launched the "Mini Farm Adoption Program" which is suitable for family activities, group events or individual consumer to plant their own vegetables. The idea is encourage parents to have fun with the kids and gain more knowledge. This adoption program also allows you to plant your own vegetables for longer term consumption period. On top of that, it can also be part of team building. Contact the farm for further details.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
