do the BOLLYWOOD style.

Learning journey is definately a very good way of incorporating lessons outside the classroom. The visit to the Bollywood Veggies is definately an enriching experience for me! I wonder if some one would make a visit there (especially for the 21st century modern children) how many types of plans can you actually identify?

A whole wide range of spices, fruit trees, and flowers! EYE OPENER FOR ME! :) Organically grown!

Various types of flowers at the farm! Look at the colours! PRETTY :D

Longan trees, have you ever seen longans grown on trees? Netting is wrapped over the longans to prevent birds/ insects to eat the fruits :) Also to ensure the harvest :)

The guide told us that the Bollywood farm has up to 5 different species of bananas. Some edible and some not, are you able to identify them? (The flowers of edible bananas are facing down and the inedible one will face up)

Flower? Yes it is, but its an inedible banana flower plant :) DO NOT EAT! Will cause cardiac arrest!

I totally love this part of the farm, its Roselle! Roselle has recently become very 'pop' in the market due to its high amount of antioxidant which is known as anthocyanin which is in a deep purple-red!

Food from the farm! Hot from the kitchen and fresh from the farm! :D

Some random photos of the girls under the unbrella in the hot sun! :D

And, me, "Hello!" :)
