Sustainability Expo 2026 Hosts Urban Gardening Workshop

Sustainability Expo 2026 (SX2026), recognized as the largest sustainability event in the ASEAN region, is currently hosting a series of educational sessions at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center. Under the theme 'Sufficiency, Sustainability, for the World,' the event includes the 'SX IDEA LAB' platform, which recently introduced a workshop titled 'SEED SAVING 101: Easy Seed Saving for Urbanites.'

Led by Likhit Maneesin, a specialist in plant breeding and seed production from Maejo University and co-founder of First Organic Seeds Co., Ltd., the session focuses on practical techniques for growing kitchen gardens in limited urban spaces. The initiative aims to help city residents reduce household expenses and contribute to long-term food security through sustainable practices.

For residents and visitors, this workshop offers a unique opportunity to learn self-sufficiency skills that can be applied even in small apartments or homes. By mastering seed saving and small-scale cultivation, participants can lower their grocery costs and adopt a more environmentally conscious lifestyle. While the event provides valuable knowledge for urban living, it remains to be seen how these techniques will be integrated into broader city-wide sustainability programs. Those interested in attending future sessions or learning more about the expo's schedule should check the official SX2026 program for updates.
