But before you plan to start your gardening and farming journey, you need to know how farming can be done successfully in the challenging climate of Singapore and Asia. If you are one of those nature-loving people and would like to do some urban farming in Singapore, you should attend for our urban farming courses.
Horticulture in Singapore is not an easy task as you require in-depth knowledge about the right kind of crops that can be grown based on watering, soil and other climate conditions.

When you get enrolled in the our urban farming course, you will obtain knowledge and practical skills to grow from seed to harvest your wonderful crops.
