A farmers’ market in the middle of the Orchard Road stretch — what? Yep, this Saturday, Hotel Jen Orchardgateway plays host to what’s touted as an ‘organic-friendly’ market featuring 20 local farmers and vendors. At its terrace on the tenth floor, you’ll find booths filled with locally-grown veggies, fresh seafood, nutritious foods and lots more from names like The Seeds Master, Hearti Grub, Comcorp, Papa’s Grove, Eden’s Kitchen, Pollen Nation and Willing Hearts Kitchen Garden.
If you’d like to go the sustainable way, learn about urban farming from Debbie Han of Co-create Nature, who will be on hand to teach you the basics of how to grow produce in your own apartment. The course includes a growing kit, notes and light refreshments.
Organic-Friendly Farmers’ Market is on Aug 27, 9am-3pm at L10, Makan @ Jen Terrace, Hotel Jen Orchardgateway Singapore. Free. Eat Your Garden Urban Farming Workshop is on Aug 27, 2pm-5pm at L19, Zen Garden, Hotel Jen Orchardgateway Singapore. $68.
