Trainers

Bernard Low: Bernard Low is a ACTA certified trainer. He is also a Project Director at RIFA Singapore.

Felicia Kang: Felicia Kang is a ACTA certified trainer. Felicia is a urban farmer maintaining a few EGC's edible gardens, namely Wheelock Place rooftop garden, Raffles City rooftop garden, garden at Open Farm Community and EGC retail outlet at HortPark. Her daily work involved watering, pruning and checking on plants. She had to tend to the nursery from saving and growing seeds, to propagating stems and transplanting plants. She also needs to take regular measures such as pest control, application of fertilizers and soil amendments to ensure those edible plants were sustainable for weekly harvesting. All these might seem trivial but they were vital to ensure healthy soil and happy plants. On adhoc basis, she maintained clients' edible gardens and assisted in setting up foodscape projects. With her farming experience, she was tasked to support the education arm of EGC in planning and coordinating with schools and EGC trainers for schools' gardening workshops and projects.
She said that "Farming or gardening is more than just growing plants, it hones our observation skill, trains our patience and resilience, and improves our physical and mental health. Last but not least, it lets us enjoy and share our labour of love."
