You can still find some farms at Choa Chu Kang, and the one that’s top on our lists is none other than Hay Diaries. This goat farm might look unassuming from the outside, but it houses over a thousand goats in its premises, and it’s the only goat farm in Singapore that produces goat milk.

Their milking takes place daily from 9am till 10.30am, so be sure to make your way down early if you want to watch the process!

If bread pudding doesn’t quite tickle your fancy, Liza, the baker behind the brand also whips up a mean batch of Ondeh Ondeh cupcakes and Triple Speculoos cupcakes.
