AL-MAZRA MASHI, RIYADH

Al-Mazra MAshi, or The Walking Farm, is the name of Riyadh’s first biodynamic, biointensive and organic farm. Biointensive agriculture is an organic agricultural system which focuses on maximum yields from the minimum area of land, while improving and maintaining the fertility of the soil. Biodynamic agriculture is a method of organic farming that emphasizes the holistic development and interrelationships of the soil, plants and animals as a self-sustaining system.

  1. Assalamu Alaikum Sarah. Do you know where I can buy organic oranges and lemons? Home delivery perhaps?

    1. Walaikum Asalam Blue Spirit,

      Lulu sells organic oranges and lemons, but they are imported and on the expensive side. Watania should have organic lemons next month. Don’t worry if you can’t get out- I can send a driver with the lemons. I really like your blog so you can think of it as a gift to continue blogging. 🙂

      Best wishes,
      Sarah

      1. Awww so sweet of you. I live near LuLu but I haven’t see them. I shall check carefully. JazakiAllaahu khair sister. I love your organic blog as well ❤❤. May Allaah bless you. Ameen.
