This hidden gem in the jungle stocks some very interesting ceramics and clay pottery. It is also home to Singapore's only dragon kiln, which is used for firing pottery. A worthwhile first stop. Wander around - you'll be amazed by the variety and colours. And if you are lucky, you may even catch a pottery workshop in session. | Where: When: |

Plan your visit so that you can watch their goat milking demonstrations from 9am to 11am daily. Thereafter, go on a little walkabout to see the goats, and round up your visit with a bottle of freshly harvested goat's milk ($2 for 200ml bottle). |

You can't miss this farm from the road - a cheery 'Frogs' mural shouts out at you. And if you listen carefully, you'll indeed hear a 'frog symphony' in the background! Enter in and you'll see ponds after ponds of the croaking, and sometimes copulating, creatures. Then there are those white lumps in the ponds - look carefully and you may see a tadpole or two trying to break free from the eggs! |

Aero-green shows how they grow temperate vegetables in equatorial Singapore. A nutrient solution is pre-cooled and sprayed onto the roots of these exotic greens. Give their their butterhead lettuce juice a go - it's invigorating and soothing on the throat. |

A fascinating wetland reserve - this alone makes this entire trip worthwhile. You're likely to see squirrels, monitor lizards, mangrove crabs and a wide variety of local and migratory birds. If you're lucky, you may also catch a glimpse of otters and estuarine crocodiles. NParks organises free guided tours of the reserve on Saturdays (9.30am and 3pm). On some Saturdays, they also have demonstrations of how prawn farming was done here. Free entry, except on Saturday, Sunday, and public/school holidays. |

The highlight of Bollywood Veggies is its restaurant, Poison Ivy Bistro. Named after its owner Ivy Singh, the restaurant uses only environment-friendly ingredients. A self-guided walkabout of the farm is also worthwhile. It's free if you've arrive on the Kranji Express shuttle, but costs everyone else $2. The must-try here is their thirst-quenching house drink, Farm Grown Aloe Vera. |
