Community gardens are cultivated green spaces where residents come together to grow food, ornamental plants, and native species side by side, creating a rich mosaic of habitats within the urban landscape. Comprising a palette of plants ranging from fruiting trees and edible herbs to flowering shrubs and native groundcover, they serve as important habitat and food sources for pollinators, birds, and other urban wildlife.
Where can we find community gardens in Singapore?
Community gardens in Singapore can be found in many housing estates managed by the Housing and Development Board, as well as in parks and community spaces across the island.
