5 Sunday Activities We Miss at Malagos

They say that nostalgia is missing what once was. As the famous novelist, Marcel Proust puts it “Remembrance of things past is not necessarily the remembrance of things as they were.” It has been months since we closed our doors to ensure your safety. Very soon, the Malagos Garden Resort will soon offer experiences refined by nature to you again. With this, here are five of the infamous Sunday activities in the resort that we all miss.

Ripples Through Acts of Kindness

The support local buy local product campaign has been going around for years now. It only resonated with a massive impact when the pandemic happened. Without the big companies to back us, most of the ones who stood up are our local farmers, local frontlines, and local businesses who tried their best to keep us all afloat. By supporting local and buying local, we are also supporting the local small businesses in Davao. These local small businesses are providing for you in as much as they are providing for their family. With this, each one you buy from them means so much more than you will ever know. Perhaps it will help a struggling family buy that much needed gadget for online school or simply indulge mom with a warm, scrumptious meal for the night, things are so much more than what they seem.

Malagos and the Farm to Table Movement

During the onset of the pandemic, the Malagos Garden Resort shifted our gears and became a Davao online grocery and delivery for fresh produce. This is with the intention of making sure that we are helping our local farmers get by. With the sudden closing of the resort and most food establishments, we had to think fast. Since then, we were able to serve you with most of your needs. From farm-fresh produce, Malagos signature products even all the way to convenient meal kits, we had you all covered. We have grown and expanded with you the last few months and here are three core reasons why we keep on doing so.

A Farmer’s Story

The Malagos Garden Resort, one of Davao’s best resorts, first took the initiative to shift our gears and become an online market of fresh produce for our farmers. The goal was to help them as much and as often as we can. From there, we added meal kits made from their farm fresh homegrown produce and now we have Malagos Garden Resort’s ornamental plants for sale too. The plant parents craze is all over the internet and the amount of people adapting it is overwhelming. In the midst of all the hype, here are some of our farmers’ opinions.

Kids' and the Love for Plants

The recent craze of Dabawenyos during the lockdown now involves the plant craze. Most of us now often wonder where to buy affordable plants in Davao or if there are any backyard plants available in Davao that we can immediately buy for ourselves. But in the middle of this all, have you ever paused for a while and wonder if gardening and tilling our own plants can be made into one significant bonding moment with our kids too?

The Root of Filipinos' Plant Craze

With this in mind, the Malagos Garden Resort has just recently launched a “Plant” category on the Malagos Homegrown Produce, our online shop and delivery counterpart in Davao. Our doors may be closed yet but this is a gentle reminder that we are one with you in this fight against the virus.

Malagos Plants Coming Your Way

With your comfort and safety in mind, we opted to bring to your homes a piece of nature all the way from the gardens of Malagos.

The Bounty of Kadayawan in the City

More than the grandeur and the color this festivity brings, it is also equally important to give honor to our local farmers during this time. It was because of their diligence in growing and cultivating the lands that we were able to enjoy such bounty. Here are three of the main reasons why in the peak of this all, we must always choose to support local and buy local.

The Malagos Garden Resort always takes pride in supporting national and local artists in the country by providing a venue where they can showcase their works. While we are celebrating Kadayawan in the comfort of our homes, may we also remember why we are celebrating this event in the first place.

The Month of Change and New Greener Experiences

Looking at it closely, all the craze we’ve been doing the past few months is really a matter of trying to be sane in the midst of all the chaos. While we do not know when this will end, we are hopeful that very soon we can open our doors and enjoy experiences refined by nature with you again. For the meantime, enjoy a piece of Malagos’s bounty through our potted herbs and ornamental plants. May each one grow and prosper with you.
