Most children assume that milk comes only from cows, not realising that goats also produce milk for mass consumption. At Hay Dairies, visitors can participate in an educational orientation of the farm where they can view goat-milking sessions. They can also buy alfafa hay to feed the goats. They can round off their visit by getting a bottle of goat milk to try \u2014 they are available in original and chocolate flavours.<\/p>\n

As the first urban insect farm in Singapore rearing the black soldier fly, Insectta takes food waste and returns it into the economy as valuable biomaterials. It has various programmes and tours you can sign up for, such as Go Green Go Buggy, which revolves around the superhero of the farm: the black soldier fly.
