Edible and Therapeutic Garden Maintenance Programme

Story
NUS Food, Science and Technology (FST) Department Head, Prof Zhou Weibiao and Deputy Head, Prof Huang Dejian joined 20 FST alumni, staff and students in maintaining the Edible Demonstration Garden and contributing to the completion of the Edible Nature Way Pilot Project, both of which are important green spaces for the community. The Edible Demonstration Garden allows the community to come together to learn about edible gardening and eco-friendly practices, whereas the Edible Nature Way serves to demonstrate the importance of sustainability and promoting a rich biodiversity. FST volunteers helped to weed, prune, fertilise, transplant and harvest the edible plants found in the gardens, all while learning about the unique plants that can be found there!
