Pangasinan business owner established flourishing dragon fruit farm as part of retirement plan

Businessman Teddy Nuez always wanted to retire on a farm, so when the opportunity arose, he immediately turned that dream into a reality.

The vanilla plant is a climbing vine that requires shade. Nuez solved this problem by covering the plants in shaded netting. He started with 30 vines and now cultivates around 200. Fortune Dragon Farm is also home to livestock and pets, some of them exotic animals. They keep rabbits, which they learned from attending a seminar by Art Veneracion at Aven’s Farm.They also keep native pigs, sheep , native chickens for eggs and food, Rhode Island red chickens, and Brahman cows .

The fruits are sold locally, usually at the nearby market, in adjacent towns, or at most, within the province. Their location near Manaoag church, a popular pilgrimage site, also means that they enjoy clientele from areas like Metro Manila, Cavite, and Quezon. The farm offered free tastes of the fruit to the public, as well as free samples to hotels and restaurants. It took three years of constant promotion before they acquired a steady clientele who valued their harvest because of its quality and sweetness. “We maintain quality and avoid spraying insecticide during fruiting season,” Nuez said.
