SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): Edible community gardens to grow vegetables and fruits in migrant worker dormitories will help to supplement the diets of workers, and also provide a therapeutic hobby to improve the mental health of those who are still under strict movement restrictions orders.
Dr Wong Han Teng, lead of the Covid-19 Migrant Support Coalition (CMSC) WeGarden project, said that the pandemic has further increased the reliance of workers on catered food, and the edible gardens will improve their diets with fresh produce.
