Program Details

We recently acquired a plot of land under high tension and want to establish a farm school/plot gardens for our marginalised communities to learn to grow their own food.

Activities & Shift

We start at 7am and end at 12pm.
Tasks are mainly to cut grass, compost and prepare plots for our beneficiaries to adopt.

This is a self cook facility. We provide
1. For breakfast - tea, coffee, pancake flour and sugar
2. Lunch & dinner - we provide rice, cooking oil, salt, cooking gas & stove, pasta, flour and some spices. To prevent wastage, we do not provide food items with short expiry dates such as fruits, vegetables, fish & meat.

Usually our volunteers cook together as a team and pack lunches for next day.

To take pride in where you stay, house chores are divided and takes 10 mins a day.
