At Gēn 根, it is very important for us to understand each and the ingredients and the communities that they are sourced from.

For our produce, we use local farmers who maintain sustainable practices and actively care for the health of their land and livestock. We support farm-to-table buying and avoid the use of processed foods and chemicals. We source all our ingredients locally and actively support small local farmers rather than large corporations.

We personally visit each farm from where we buy our produce.

We endeavour to understand the real costs of the ingredients and maximise our use for the every part of the produce to achieve minimum waste.

We also use methods such as ferments, pickles and preserves in our menus to create a collaborative network that integrates sustainable food production, processing, distribution, consumption and waste management in order to minimise our environmental footprint.
