How To Implement Urban Gardening In A Community
Looking for a space to nurture your green fingers?
The Allotment Gardening Scheme allows aspiring gardeners to lease gardening plots to hone their skills and grow their own greens. Following the success of the pilot scheme at HortPark in 2016, allotment garden plots can now be found in parks and gardens islandwide.
About the plots
Each allotment garden plot consists of a raised planter bed (2.5m x 1m) and comes equipped with soil in the planter box, as well as a mini storage area for tools. The lease period for these plots will be typically up to 3 years at a charge of $57 per year (excluding GST), but it may be subject to the Board's discretion, depending on the lease period available in an existing site. All allotment gardens are situated in our public parks and gardens, and are unfenced to allow the public to visit and appreciate the gardens.
You can grow herbs, vegetables or any other ornamental plants. Be creative with your plots, and you might possibly inspire more people to take up gardening!
