We are grateful to be part of a Green Community Library here in Nee Soon, built entirely out of upcycled materials. The library was unveiled by MP for Nee Soon GRC, Ms Carrie Tan ้™ˆๆพฎๆ•, in support of Climate Action Week 22.

Supported by Stanley Tools Singapore, GUI ran a mini workshop with the participants to install armrests and legs to a decommissioned 3-seater MRT train chair, converting them into reading benches for the community library.

We look forward to more collaborations with Nee Soon to create a greener, more energy-efficient, and zero-waste town.

Earlier this month, together with residents from Nee Soon East CC, we built another 6 vegetable planters. Like the previous planters on site, these planters are made from upcycled wood that has been discarded.

We are very encouraged by the residents. Through their own hard work, they have now 12 planters in total. They are now able to grow and harvest 2 times the vegetables for their community and beneficiaries.

Interested in knowing more about farming? Join us as a Farm Tour guide. Training and remuneration will be provided. Sign up here; https://forms.gle/EZJjFASjxWGs3Vto6

We met Janny Huynh in 2020! We have learned a lot from her during her time with GUI as she became the first person in GUI to helm the marketing role.

Janny led a team to start and built GUI's patron system, refresh our website, and helped kept GUI alive in the virtual world as the physical world came to a halt during the pandemic.

Janny welcomes a new member into her family and GUI would like to send her our heartiest congratulations.

GUI is proud to have inspired many to take action for our environment and community.

One of them is, our founding member, Chia Chia, who has started "Bare Food Challenge 2022". It is a ground-up initiative to inspire one to adopt a healthy, low-carbon, plant-based lifestyle.

For the kick-off briefing and free workshoip, register here by 30th Sep, 10pm; https://forms.gle/cVJp29V2rr5nELwE8

How are things being made from scratch, ground up?

Back in February 2022, freelance writer Eugenia Tan collaborated with us to create a novel, community-based theatre piece, โ€˜From Scratch, Ground Upโ€™. Supported by National Arts Council Singaporeโ€™s Self-Employed Person Grant (SEPG), the play presented a new perspective of the natural space and inspired reflections on the relationship between artmaking and sustainability. ๐ŸŒฑ

Today at Pelatok Park, led by TouchWood GUI, we celebrate children and people with joyful craft and farm activities that are good for the earth and good for us. Once again, we are grateful to Changi-Simei CC for this opportunity.

The residents were also able to harvest again from the Art Farm, a project by Changi-Simei CC, SUTD Singapore University of Technology & Design, SAA Architects (Surbana Jurong Group) & Changi General Hospital (CGH).
