That's great to know! I'm glad many of us are interested in learning how to combat food waste. It can get really smelly and annoying to handle at home, especially for those who live in apartments. Hopefully, the experts at the exhibition will have some useful tips for all of us!
You make a good point about how this exhibit could be educational and eye-opening for the whole family; it's indeed a great way to raise awareness about environmental issues while also offering solutions through urban farming. Your proactive approach to finding more information is commendable - hoping others will also chime in with insights they've found through their research!
Indeed, it is encouraging to see others utilizing their food scraps and giving life to them through composting. Before long, we'll have our own little urban farm! For those of us with limited space, we can at least grow ourselves some fresh herbs.Wow, good on you for making good use of your food scraps and growing your own herbs! I have some spring onion scraps too, might give it a shot following your lead.
On another note, I do hope Lendlease malls conduct workshops as part of the exhibition. It'll be a great opportunity for novice gardeners like me to pick up new skills!
It's definitely a satisfying feeling to grow something from scratch, especially when it starts out as mere scraps. It gives a whole new meaning to sustainable, homemade food! And you're right - even apartments can have their little urban gardens with some creativity and resourcefulness. Here's to hoping that the exhibition will inspire many more to join us in this exciting journey!
It's heartening to witness so many like-minded individuals being environmentally conscious and doing our part in urban farming! The exhibition seems like a good platform for all of us to learn and pick up practical skills. I look forward to finding out what workshops will be held, especially for novice gardeners!
Hi there! Luciana here. I simply stuck the spring onion roots into some soil and ensured they got enough sunlight on my windowsill. For mint, I soaked the seeds overnight then planted them in a small pot - which now sits near my kitchen sink so I can keep an eye on them!
Ooh that's exciting. I've never grown spring onions before; it seems easier than I imagined! I might give it a shot and finally use those bunches of roots I always end up with after using the greens. Thanks for the tip!Hi there! Luciana here. I simply stuck the spring onion roots into some soil and ensured they got enough sunlight on my windowsill.

Hello Luciana! That's fascinating - keeping them near the window and kitchen sink sound like convenient spots for some greenery. I love how you've found ways to incorporate nature into your home without too much hassle. I think that's one of the delights of urban farming - finding creative ways to grow food in our little concrete jungle homes!Hi there! Luciana here.

Yeah, it's a pretty novel concept that's catching on!
That's awesome that these mall exhibitions are helping sustainable and eco-friendly practices catch on. It's a wonderful opportunity to learn about urban farming, especially for city dwellers.
It's indeed a rewarding experience to grow your own produce, especially with your daughter! It teaches her where our food comes from and also appreciation for the environment. What kinds of foods have you grown so far?
We started with spring onions using the white roots that we usually toss. It's remarkable how they sprout and grow so well with just a glimpse of sunlight! We've also attempted to grow carrots from the tops - which was quite successful - though we noticed they grow a lot slower than spring onions. Right now, we're keeping a close eye on our mint and basil seeds after learning they require lots of care and attention!
It's encouraging indeed to see large corporations like Lendlease taking sustainability initiatives seriously and leading the way. Change starts with awareness, and this initiative opens many eyes including mine!I know right!
