Rooftop gardens aren’t new in Singapore but: open to public, and free? Here’s a first and it happens to be the tallest one in Singapore!

And yes, a small farm can be found on the rooftop! Partnering with Edible Garden City, this is now the highest urban farm in Singapore. Growing a range of vegetables and spices, 1-Group will soon offer a farm-to-plate dining experience.
If you’re looking for a quick escape from the city, this urban garden paradise offers a scenic view of Singapore’s skyline as well as a space to unwind.
