Environmental issue targeted: Food and Agriculture Presentation by: Tham Siang Yu

About Edible Garden City • We champion the “Grow Your Own Food” movement in land-scarce and importdependent Singapore. We want our city to grow food at under-utilised spaces like rooftops and sidewalks. We believe that growing food re-connects urbanites to nature, conserves natural resources, and cultivates a sense of community. • We design, build and maintain food gardens in tropical urban Singapore. Our team has more than 20 years of farming, award-winning design and construction experience. We use sustainable natural growing methods, resource recycling and waste minimisation. Our mantra: Beautiful gardens should be productive too. • We support communities via social projects and public outreach. We believe that every urbanite can have access to fresh produce grown naturally.
