Their produce is grown without pesticides and herbicides. They also make use of advanced hydroponic technology that uses 90% less water than traditional farming, making them more environmentally sustainable. By growing crops where people live, it makes use of unused rooftop spaces, keeping running costs and thus giving a better price of produce for everyone.]]> 2023-02-14 00:23:55 UTC https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480425423 https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480426522 the fridge restock community consist of a group of volunteers who rescues vegetables and fruits which may look ugly but are still edible, and they deliver them to community fridges around singapore. their main objective is to reduce food wastage and help lower income groups]]> 2023-02-14 00:25:07 UTC https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480426522 cleo_chew https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480426920 what is their aim?-  they aim to share food supplies with their neighbours and it is also a chance for them to fill the community fridge to the brim with surplus vegetables and also to reduce food wastage by collecting and distributing surplus or close to expiry food products from donors, which are distributed to the community fridge

The purpose of doing so is to share surplus food with their neighbours. For them, it was a chance to fill the community fridge to the brim with surplus vegetables. 

Volunteers in different communities help to restock the 14 community fridges in singapore several times a week and to deliver the food to their neighbours or to the community. ]]> 2023-02-14 00:27:27 UTC https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480428529 ssp07004b1_1 https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480429113 why: Our goal is to feed the community, and as we do that, we get closer to reducing Singapore’s dependence on imported vegetables and boost our home-grown food supply. Singapore will be able to better withstand food supply disruptions caused by trade restrictions or bad weather.

what: ComCrop is currently Southeast Asia’s first urban commercial rooftop farm, ComCrop, and is all about sustainable and communal farming in the city. They currently produce over 150kg of leafy greens every month and they are scaled up productions during the pandemic to answer for Singapore's food shortage. 

how: Comcrop's idea was to use over marginalized spaces and create something useful out of them and it operates on the 6,000 square foot space on the rooftop of Scape, along Orchard Road. ]]> 2023-02-14 00:28:08 UTC https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480429113 https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480429169 what: the fridge restock community contributes fresh supplies to 14 community fridges, which is there for neighbours to all share food they are not able to get.
why: the fridge restock community took a chance to fill these community fridges to the brim with surplus vegetables, the founder of the community wanted to make sure that his unsold vegetables from his mini mart went to feeding the hungry and not the bins.
how: every tuesday, at least 20 of their volunteers share the load of rescuing, delivering and distributing the food to designated community fridges. ]]> 2023-02-14 00:28:11 UTC https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480429169 https://padlet.com/chiang_kwok_wai/i6msxwcqfle8lkbi/wish/2480429415 What are Microgreens?
