Waste
to Gold
Turn Trash into Treasure and Grow Something Amazing!
We believe waste isn’t waste—it’s just gold in disguise. In this 3-part workshop series, your team will learn how to transform everyday waste into powerful fertilizers, grow nutrient-rich crops, and contribute to a healthier planet. From coffee grounds to kitchen scraps, we’ll show you how to turn “waste to gold” and grow something incredible!

-
What is your cancellation policy?If you cancel at least 3 days in advance, you may reschedule your workshop. However, cancellations made within 2 days of the workshop are non-refundable.
-
What sort of physical space is required in order to run an urban farming programme?For an urban farm programme, a space with at least 4 hours of adequate sunlight is required. The area should be suitable for placing planters, with a minimum size of 1m x 0.5m, though larger spaces are ideal. We can conduct a site survey to assess its suitability.
-
Why don't you do indoor farming with grow lights?We prefer outdoor farming as it promotes biodiversity and attracts pollinators, which are essential for a thriving ecosystem. Indoor farming with grow lights tends to limit biodiversity and natural ecological interactions.
-
What are your growing practices like?We cultivate in soil without using harmful chemical fertilizers or pesticides, following both organic and regenerative farming principles. Our focus is on sustainable soil-based practices, and we typically do not use hydroponic systems.
-
Does my team need green thumbs or experience in growing?No prior experience in gardening is required, and beginners are welcome!
-
Does my team need a minimum period of participation for the programme?We highly encourage the same team members to participate throughout the programme to ensure continuity and a full learning experience. This allows them to gain deeper insights, develop skills progressively, and maximize the benefits of the programme.
-
If the plants die, who bears the costs of replacement?If the plants do not thrive, we are happy to assess the situation. While we ensure that the plants provided are suited to the growing environment, various factors can affect their health. If the issue is due to a defect in the planter, we will cover the replacement cost. Otherwise, we kindly ask the customer to bear the cost of replacement.
-
Why are such workshops important for my staff?These workshops are educational and teach staff about sustainability and improve their wellbeing. It can also help them bond better!
