Upcoming Workshops & Events
Everything we teach, we practice first — in our homes, workplaces, and experimental spaces. Because of this, we're selective about when we offer paid workshops. When we show up, we want to bring you something fresh, meaningful, and worth your time. We also show up in other ways — through free events that are less about instruction and more about shaping our neighbourhoods, together. You'll find both listed below.
12-Week Program (from 16 April 2026)
What if your Thursday mornings felt different?
The Urban Regeneration Practice Circle is for individuals ready to go beyond attending one-off workshops or volunteering basic tasks.
Here, we create a month of learning and practicing together, and you have two months to experiment with volunteering or assisting with facilitation in areas you practice and value.
Over 12 weeks, you'll:
-
Learn to identify lesser-known edible plants, propagate them, and save seeds
-
Harvest, taste, and prepare food and tea from garden harvests
-
Build and tend aerobic compost heaps
-
Practice guiding one another
-
Enjoy quiet time and meaningful conversations
This is a guided experience for 8 people max. It is slow, hands-on, and rooted in a private outdoor garden in Singapore.
By Week 12, you'll have experienced and practiced identification of edible plants, nature-based gardening and composting, and preparing food and drinks from the garden — and a growing confidence to weave these into daily life, or explore pathways into volunteering and regenerative livelihoods.

Kek Lapis Compost Workshop is led by our co-creator, Cuifen Pui. Cuifen is a compost artisan and regeneration advocate. She envisions urban residents working together to shape regenerative neighbourhoods — with composting, and adding matured compost to soil, being an integral part of that work.
A key difference from many other workshops: what we compost is not waste. These are ingredients lovingly gathered to feed other living organisms — beneficial soil microbes. Your experience begins one week before we meet.
In this two-hour session, participants explore how living compost is connected to soil, plants, food, biodiversity, and many of the systems we often take for granted on a living planet.
Participants bring home a compost container that they assemble during the session. You will learn how to tend to it over several weeks (especially if you have a small space!), how to use the finished compost, what are some local projects or gardens you could gift it to, and how to gather more ingredients for your next batch of compost-making.

Cook with Joy is a cooking session guided by home cook, Deepa, with the support of Food Citizen and our venue sponsor.
Deepa’s knowledge of cooking is shaped by years of cooking for the people she loves. Spending time with her in the kitchen is an invitation into a lived practice — grounded in care, rhythm, and joy.
Deepa will share how she cooks everyday South Indian dishes that you may have enjoyed at eateries. Food from her kitchen leave family and friends feeling nourished, loved, and satisfied.
This is a hands-on session. Deepa will guide us step by step, we’ll learn by doing, and we’ll enjoy the food together. We’re keeping the group small so there’s space for conversation and personal interaction while cooking together in a communal kitchen.
