Our Story

"Give me agriculture and I will give a civilization" - Sheikh Zayed

farm2table is about a couple that is passionate about food, agriculture and sustainability. With access to high quality local organic produce, the idea to share it with everyone was a must! We wanted to make sure that we used these ingredients in the cleanest way possible and made it available for everyone to come and try. Our founders together have also been apart of working towards a brighter future with their push for sustainable, circular systems and sourcing local produce. They also promote and find small locally founded businesses to help push them to the forefront.

The UAE has a long history of date, animal and fish farms and currently has expanded its’ incredible sustainable efforts to look towards sourcing high quality produce locally. We want to incorporate some local UAE flavour and keep some tastes and recipes from this rich history. The farm2table concept is about keeping history alive, seeing what potential the UAE has for the future in agriculture and while we are at it, serving great food.
