Balan is a graduate in International Business with over 20 years of experience in the B2B industry. As a father of three young and growing children, he is always concerned over their health. Realizing the rampant use of banned pesticides on vegetables and their effects, he decided to grow his own and started a mini farm at his backyard in 2012.
He went a step further and received certification in Urban Farming from the Department of Agriculture, after setting up a few medium-scaled farms. Understanding the complexity and challenges urbanites face, he developed the idea and methodology for FIFTEEN MINUTES FARMER through various tests and soil experiments for sustainability, enabling vegetables to be easily grown within limited space and time.
Packed with passion and determination to promote healthy eating, Balan is now bringing his knowledge and experience with an aim to encourage urban farming that is safe, healthy and sustainable.
