SINGAPORE: Apartment blocks by the Housing and Development Board often share community gardens, but 49-year-old Leon Yap and his team of neighbours sought to have something different for their Woodlands neighbourhood.
Since its opening in March, more than 200 people have been drawn to the eco-talks and workshops held there.The first harvest also yielded 5kg to 6kg of vegetables, which were distributed among the residents. The void deck has undergone a makeover, with 3-D murals showcasing different eras of Singapore’s development. Residents can also play traditional games such as hopscotch and snakes and ladders on the floor decals.
Set up in 2016, it aims to encourage residents to initiate and implement projects that contribute to the building of active communities which can range from public installations to workshops.In 2018, funding was increased to up to S$20,000 per project, compared to just S$10,000 previously.
