Pun Pun was set up by a Thai/American couple and sells organic vegetarian food, grown at Pun Pun Organic farm in the countryside outside Chiang Mai. It is a project aimed at supporting organic farmers locally, farmer networks, and propagating biodiversity. They produce organic produce on their own farm as well as sourcing from local farmers producing organically.
Even for a non-vegetarian they will be deligted with the fair and the cost being a very reasonably priced.
A pictiques setting, in the middle of the Wat Suan Dok grounds, monks are continuously slowly wandering past, and the backrgound sounds of interspersed with the monks chanting nearby.
