Feature in Female magazine

Ok I don’t really garden in that outfit 🙂

I’ve been featured in Female magazine’s May issue, alongside two ladies who enjoy growing their own edibles. My garden looks quite barren compared to theirs, admittedly I had little vegetables growing at the time, many were still seedlings and I had been focusing more on flowers. Another reminder to avoid periods of bountiful or barren, and instead plan my garden better so that it’s always a highly productive garden.

Getting to know Singapore’s farmers

Singapore has a wonderful countryside and huge potential in scaling up its vegetable production in the city state. Here are some videos featuring farmers from different industries, including new generation farmers and urban farmers, and these clips provide a quick snapshot of Singapore’s agricultural landscape.

In a month’s time, the Kranji Countryside Association will hold Singapore’s first farmers’ market featuring locally grown and made products. I’ll be there, and I hope you’ll join me too! More details will be posted on the Kranji Countryside Farmers’ Market Facebook page as the dates draw near. Please ‘like’ the page and support local produce! And remember to bring your own bags! See you there!
