Event Details
A great family weekend activity to learn about how our food comes from Mother Nature.
Take your kids on a journey to discover and harvest different food plants. Our aim is for parents and children to bond and learn about nature together in this permaculture garden (we are not a commercial farm).
We love seeing families coming together to discover nature's treasures from our garden. And learning how to harvest various edible foods.
We love tasting the delicious and healthy dishes made by our awesome community of volunteers and parents. And connecting through laughter, stories, and heartfelt moments.
We love letting our inner child come alive with messy play at the popup playground. And watching adults and kids having so much fun letting their creativity unfold with just a few simple materials and toys.
Such experiences have become so rare in developed countries like Singapore where digital gadgets, unhealthy diets, and social isolation are becoming more pervasive.
We love being able to bring back the "kampong spirit" of the good old days. Where life was simpler and we didn't need much to feel joyful.
Bring an eco-bag to take home the veggies and herbs that you and your family will harvest from our little garden.
Your contribution helps to support the:
(a) funding of the garden - soil, gravels, manpower, seeds, and garden maintenance can be costly in money and energy
(b) initiative of a messy, sensory and child-led play in this pop-up playground for the children - paint, bubbles, carton boxes and transportation, manpower (cleaning up is a chore!)
Activities
- Urban farm experience with a guided walk-through (remember to bring your eco-bag for harvesting goodies from the garden!).
- Pop-up and child-led playground (messy with recyclables).
Weather
Rain or shine we will continue (unless there is lightning). Bring your child’s extra clothes, rain boots, and raincoat, we’ll just play in the water puddles if it rains.
Play is serious learning for the children (and us). It's a wonderful chance for you to let your hair down for a few hours and reconnect with your inner child.
Your child will love playing with you too! Don't forget to bring an extra change of clothes for yourself as well.
