Of Films, Spices and...Bollywood Veggies?


This most wonderful farm is named Bollywood Veggies. It is named the Lifestyle of Health and Sustainability Region by an American research company. The name Bollywood Veggies sounds really interesting. Well is it somehow related to Bollywood? No actually.

We paid a visit to Bollywood Veggies which is located at the beautiful Kranji countryside. No, not really a countryside but that's the closest we can get to a countryside in concrete-jungle Singapore. It is full of trees with acres of grass and organic plants, and briming with wonderful and colorful vegetables.

It was a perfect sunny day to visit the mesmerizing veggie garden. I was amused by the plants there. Among the most unique ones was the Pisang Rajah (King of Banana). We also saw the beauty of a banana flower. Later, there were more fruits and vegetables like aloe vera, bitter gourd, pumpkin and eggplant. Some of the wide range of spices that we had seen were basil, Indian borage and lemongrass. All of us were amazed by the natural beauty of this organic farm.


Throughout the journey, I had constantly trying to capture all those wonderful moments on my digital camera. When our sight seeing was done, we headed to the Bollywood Veggies restaurant. I had the most refreshing aloe vera drink there.

I had a great day at the Bollywood Veggies. In all, I saw the beauty of nature. It had made me realise how nature has given us so many precious gifts. It is an unforgettable experience.
