This Traveling Farm Wants to Teach You How to Grow Your Own Edible Greens in Singapore

By Coconuts Singapore Jan. 17, 2018

As urban farming gains traction in cosmopolitan Singapore, people are increasingly interested in growing their own edible gardens. But not all of us are born with a green thumb — and that’s where The Traveling Farm steps in.

A roving initiative by urban farming consultancy Pocket Greens, the pop-up space will rotate between three different locations — Bougainvillea Park (where it sits now), Raffles Place Park, and Dhoby Ghaut Green — for three months each from now till Dec 5, 2020, so you’ve got plenty of time to make your way over.

It’s not hard to recognize either. Housed in a bright orange recycled container, The Traveling Farm offers gardening workshops and programs, with videos on express gardening, tips on cultivating a lush garden, and sessions on growing your own greens.

Those keen on putting theory into practice can browse through the retail selection and bring home a variety of herbs, seeds, and gardening products.
