Kranji countryside - Quan Fa Organic Farm and Bollywood veggies

Bollywood veggies
100 Neo Tiew Road Singapore 719026 Tel: 6898 5001


This place seems less of a functioning farm and more like an educational place for children and city people.


You can get see different types of vegetables, fruit trees and herbs in a small area. There is suppose to be a free tour (but there are no signages) and i asked and was directed somewhere but no one was conducting a tour.

I was fully geared with a cap and mosquito patch. I think the mosquito patch is a definite must!!!

Actually, i was expecting sales of fresh vegetables here but sadly the stalls available today is selling mosquito patch, olive oil and honey. Entrance fee is stated to be $2 and on an honor basis.(i.e no one is there to man the tickets stall so you just put the money into the open box).

Along the way here there are plenty of other farms to visit koi fish or goat farm.

Quan Fa Organic Farm
35 Murai Farmway  Singapore 709145 Tel: 6793 7693

As my family is really keen to buy some fresh vegetables back home, Googling leads us to this place which is a 10 mins drive away from Bollywood veggies at Lim Chu Kang.

This is a working farm and i enjoyed looking at all the vegetables and recognise the vegetables we always see on the market here. But its freakingly hot. There is not much of a crowd here and most only drop by to purchase the organically grown vegetables.


All packs of vegetables are sold at a flat rate of $2.50 per pack and its deliciously fresh. Eh upon reflection it does seem a bit expensive. Free online delivery is available for purchases above $60.

Attached is also the brochure on Kranji countryside that you can refer if you're interested to invest the area.
