Mushroom Farm Tour by Bishan RC

Bishan RC organized a tour to a mushroom farm, and it was an educational trip indeed. This tour initiated our passion for mushrooms, fried, or in soup, and believe it or not, in fact, we even kind of like it raw.

A trip was also made to the Bishan Fire Station.

PS:

Even though we are not residents in Bishan, but we are just separated from Bishan by one road, the Braddell Road, thus, more than often, you can catch us at the activities they organized.

Check out her favourite flower pose!
