SINGAPORE – Gardening enthusiasts will have more room to exercise their green skills, with the National Parks Board (NParks) launching more than 280 garden plots in four parks here.
They are part of 1,000 garden plots that will be available in 18 parks and gardens in Singapore next year.
The pitches announced on Friday (November 13) will be available at Bedok Reservoir Park, Lower Seletar Reservoir Park, one-north Park and East Coast Park, which will have 120 pitches to use.
Gardeners can apply online starting at 10 a.m. M. From November 29. Applications will close at 10 p.m. M. On December 6 and selected applicants will be notified within three months after this date.
The parcels will be assigned by computerized voting. Each plot will be rented for three years at $ 57 per year and consists of a raised planter measuring 2.5 m by 1 m.
Those wishing to dig some soil are encouraged to request the garden plots closest to their residence.
NParks made more plots available to meet the growing interest of avid gardeners in Singapore.
By next year, there will be more than 2,000 garden plots around the island.
NParks is providing additional spaces for growing plants and groceries, in the form of allotment plots and community gardens, as part of the nation’s efforts to transition to a City in the Wild.
The online application form, location maps, and more information on allotment gardens across the island can be found on the NParks website.
