Why compost?

Composting our first batch of kitchen waste Every day, 25,000 to 30,000 tons of waste is generated in Malaysia. Over 90% of it is not recycled. Of that, 45-60% is organic waste.  That means that an average of around 15,000 tons of organic waste go wastefully (and harmfully) to landfills every day. That’s the weight […]

Learning Beyond the Classroom

学习,从来不只发生在教室里 上周日,我们开启了 Food • Soil • Community 社区共学计划 的第一场学习旅程。此计划由UNDP 及Microsoft 赞助支持而得以成真。 这一场,由卡滋素养教室(Kazee Classroom) 的老师、孩子及家长,一起走进 FOLO 农场,展开未来几个月社区学习计划的第一步。环境教育最好的方式,不是告诉大家答案,而是创造一个能够亲身体验、观察、提问与实践的平台。 因此,这次为期四个月的社区可持续花园建构计划,第一步是带着大家走进真实运作中的农场。 让大家认识并参与 Ridan 厨余堆肥系统,了解每天的厨房厨余如何转化成滋养土壤的养分;参观花园的蚯蚓堆肥区,了解另一种自然分解有机废弃物的可能。当社区成员亲手触摸已经完成发酵的堆肥,再走进菜园看见健康生长的蔬菜时,便会开始重新理解了一件事: 厨余,并不是垃圾,而是下一餐食物的起点。 接下来几个月,FOLO 将持续陪伴 Kazee Classroom 与其他参与社区,通过工作坊、现场指导及持续交流,一步一步建立属于自己的社区堆肥系统与食物花园。 我们希望 FOLO 不只是一个农场。更是一个让社区、学校、家庭与企业,都能够透过自然学习、从实践中成长的教育平台。因为真正的学习,不会在活动结束后停止。它会继续发生在每一次堆肥、每一次播种,以及每一次人与人的连结之中。 🌱 Last Sunday, we kicked off the first Food • Soil • Community Learning Journey, a four-month community learning programme made possible through the support of […]

We built a farm. Now we’re building hope.

When we first started FOLO, our dream was never just about growing vegetables. It was about cultivating something much deeper. A place where people reconnect with nature. A place where strangers become neighbours. A place where practical skills become opportunities to care for others. That’s why we were excited to welcome EPIC Homes to FOLO […]
