After 14 years of abandonment, a family-owned land in Pampanga was redeveloped by a couple as a way of giving honor to their late father. Tibbys farm is an 11-hectare farm located in Angeles, Pampanga that aims to empower people through training them on natural farming for inclusive growth.
Angelo Valencia, known as Kuya Pultak, a lawyer by profession, decided to put up the farm four days after he left his post as a Chief Operating Officer in an agricultural company where his love for farming was rooted. He refers to this work experience as the destiny that led him to be a farmer.
The name Tibbys Farm was derived from his wifes nickname Tibang, which he converted into English. The lot where Tibbys farm stands today was passed down through several generations of his wifes family for more than 60 years. In those years, their ancestors raised cattle and grew crops like rice, vegetables, and sugar. In 2016, the farmer asked his wife to develop the land to honor and fulfill the wish of his late father-in-law.
