Decrease your carbon-footprint and increase your eco-footprint. Singapore and cities in Malaysia and other countries in the region are likely to see days with consistently rising and peak temperatures in the next two decades if we do not collectively reduce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in our atmosphere.

Addressing the compounding effect of heat pollution created in urban areas is an important part of reducing emissions. What we do in cities matters. What companies and work spaces do in cities will make a difference. Retrofitting dormant urban spaces, empty lawns, side walks, alleyways, rooftops and backyards to include regenerative urban food scapes can help green and cool everyday places in the city.

Create an urban permaculture garden or a regenerative urban community farm. Make it your organisation’s cornerstone eco-initiative. A programme that will sustain and create impactful conversations, education and action and a movement towards healthier communities and sustained planetary care. If you’re in the service industry, a food garden would serve as a wonderful garden-to-table experience for your guests and customers. We can help you cultivate an urban food garden that is ecological, easy to maintain and yields produce.

Build closed-loop food gardens for your employees, your community, for schools, to help uplift a community in need and to counter the rising temperatures in cities. What could this look like? Learn about one such garden we built in 2022, the Kebun Rasa Sayang, at Boon Lay, Singapore.
