Come spend a day with us at Kampung Kampus.
This World Food Day weekend, communities from Singapore and Malaysia are coming together around Food • Soil • Community: to volunteer, share a meal, meet the people behind the work, learn something new and get our hands involved.
Start the morning with Balik Kampung, stay for a vegetarian Kampung Lunch, then spend the afternoon exploring community showcases and hands-on workshops.
Come volunteer. Stay for lunch. Explore the afternoon. Spend the day with us.

The afternoon opens up for you to wander, meet people and discover the work happening across different communities in Singapore and Malaysia.
