Bollywood Farms’ tenancy on Neo Tiew Road will end in December 2026, and the owners are pressing for a lease renewal.[1]
The expiry matters because the farm has been a fixture of Singapore’s agro‑tourism landscape for more than two decades, drawing school groups and tourists to learn about organic produce and traditional farming methods.[1] With limited green space in the city‑state, the loss of such a venue would reduce community access to sustainable‑food education.
The owners, who remain unnamed in public filings, have indicated they are eager to stay on the site and continue operations.[1] They have approached the land‑owner, a government agency, to discuss a possible extension, but no formal offer has been disclosed.
If a renewal is granted, Bollywood Farms could continue its current programming and possibly expand its market‑garden plots. Without a new lease, the farm would have to vacate by the end of 2026, leaving the 1.2‑hectare plot available for redevelopment or alternative public use.
Singapore’s tight land constraints have led to several similar cases where long‑standing community farms face relocation or closure. The outcome for Bollywood Farms will signal how authorities balance heritage‑type green spaces against competing development pressures.

**What this means** The pending lease expiry highlights the fragile status of urban farms in a city where land is at a premium. A renewal would preserve a rare educational resource and maintain green cover in the western region, while a failure to secure one could accelerate the conversion of agricultural land to residential or commercial projects, further limiting public exposure to farming practices.
“The lease runs out in December 2026, and the owners hope to stay.”
The situation underscores the tension between Singapore’s need for new development and its commitment to preserving community green spaces; the decision on the lease will set a precedent for how similar agro‑tourism sites are treated in the future.
