Based in Chiang Mai, North Thailand, Svenine Eatery is a farm, restaurant, and food supplier whose goal is to supply real healthy food with as little processed inputs as possible, as transparently as possible, and in a commercially viable way that offers a genuine alternative to the unhealthy corporate food supply.
Created by Nine, a rural Thai girl who watched as her remote village's farming practices were overtaken by the ubiquitous use of chemical herbicides, hormones, and pesticides, depleting soil health and making farmers dependent on a cycle of buying corporate inputs then selling crops back to corporations for lower and lower rates. In recent years factory chicken and pig farms have crept into her rural area, as urban areas not able to contain their concentrated waste.
These practices have little interest in long-term sustainability, areas of farmland return ever reducing yields, waterways become polluted, once the land is no longer profitable the industries that caused the damage will leave to find greener pastures to corrupt.
Nine's husband, Sven, is a New-Zealander with tech experience who has a philosophy of living natural and healthy, together our primary goal is to offer a transparent supply of food that is as promotes health in ourselves, our customers and our community.
