Oh was that the inspiration for your herbs? I would love to have a thriving veg garden and some chickens too. Before AVA crack down, I had neighbours who kept chickens in their gardens. It is not very hard if you have some land and nonfussy neighbours. My grandparents and parents had fruit trees and there is satisfaction in harvesting from one's own garden.MrsKiasu:
I told myself that I will cook on my own for as long as possible.

Herbs today, veg tomorrow.
If only they allow me to rear chickens

For health reasons, money reasons or just want to be independent into old age?
I am not an enthusiastic cook. -

Free range chickens in the garden. It's very nice.

Given that I don't have some land, it would be nearly impossible for me to rear some chickensfloppy:

A thriving veg garden may still be possible, if we go the hydroponics vertical farm route.
I remember my relatives' kampong years ago where they had rambutans, pineapples, vegetables and herbs in their own backyard. -

I've lived in places with lots of chickens around, and they crow whenever they like! I'm sure neighbours will complain. And there are probably rules about keeping chickens on residential property - think about bird flu!

Are you the sort who maintains a few pots of plants and a fish bowl with goldfishes at your office cubicle /room? You can grow your organic herbs if you sit next to the window. Pluck some and toss it with your salad during lunch. Hahaha! -

But you know, there are wild chickens around, including near Dhoby Ghaut MRT station.
