Yishun Green Kakis

Residents of Khatib and Yishun who like getting their hands dirty. We look after a community garden on a former carpark, run a monthly estate clean-up with composting workshops, and keep a free tool and book library in a converted storeroom. Most members are retirees who garden in the morning, joined by working adults and families at weekends. Newcomers never need experience: we lend gloves and boots, someone will show you what to do, and there is always tea at the end. Surplus vegetables go to residents of the surrounding blocks, free, whoever turns up first.
