Blog Shots from our workshop on Saturday afternoon at @riuhinthecity! It was our biggest workshop turnout ever — with 30 participants joining us in one session to learn how to grow their own mini herb garden. It was like a pasar malam at one point, and we loved it Thank you so much to those who came, we apologise if there were any shortcomings from our end, as we are always looking to grow (pun intended) and improve in our teachings. We hope you left with at least an uplifted spirit to start or keep growing! Remember: green fingers can be made 🏼Also, we would love to see the plant babies you took home so don't be shy to share with us your plant progress! If you have any questions, you can drop us a message and we'll be happy to help wherever we can.If you missed this one, don't worry — we will be having more workshops coming soon so keep an eye out on our IG/FB for updates : Simon Khoo / Catherine#eatsshootsandroots #green #workshop #garden #plants #riuhinthecity #growyourown #cookyourownBy Eats, Shoots & Roots, 8 yearsApril 24, 2018 ago

Blog After 2 full weeks of rapid packing, uprooting and clearing out ESR's first home in Bukit Gasing, we have officially relocated to another 'bukit'. Thank you to all of our friends and family (humans and critters alike) for helping us out in the process. We are forever grateful to you, and hope that you will continue to follow and support us in this journey. Gonna miss you, Bukit Gasing! You will always hold a special place in our hearts 🌳 Here's to a new chapter: hello, Bukit Damansara! 😎#eatsshootsandroots #sayurinthecity #ediblegarden #growyourown #cookyourown #urbangarden #kualalumpur #malaysia #garden #green #plants #vegetablesBy Eats, Shoots & Roots, 8 yearsApril 11, 2018 ago
Blog Throwback to our first and last days at Gasing HQ — first picture: friends visiting the site for the first time, second picture: Team ESR leaving the site for the last time. An emotional moment for us as we say a big thank you for all the supporters and volunteers that helped springboard the idea of Eats, Shoots & Roots to life at this very space. We are forever grateful for the space we had here to experiment and explore. If we had in any way done any wrong, please forgive us. Big thanks to the microbes, soil life, wild life, human life that have supported us over the years. Much love. On to renewed growth of more eats, more shoots and more roots. #eatsshootsandroots #bukitgasing #pjBy Eats, Shoots & Roots, 8 yearsApril 6, 2018 ago
