Why Backyard
what does “backyard” mean?
Backyards are places for friends and family to turn up and feel welcomed home — to play, and to dwell beyond the meal.

Why Backyard
Backyards are places for friends and family to turn up and feel welcomed home — to play, and to dwell beyond the meal.
We’re bringing the backyard into shared spaces, built around BBQs — taking “home is where the heart is” much further. Anyone can be part of this, as long as they’re open to eat, serve and love.

Why BBQs
“The belly comes before the soul, not in the scale of values, but in point of time.”
In a society where food is easily accessible, the reasons youth don’t eat out — and don’t eat together often — are more evident: expenses, time, climate, space. Going out for a meal becomes an added privilege.
Removing that barrier is one thing. But we want to show that it’s more than a gathering.
Our model
Food is the pull factor — local fare mixed with a western flair. An alternative to your usual Friday dinner, and a highlight of the area.
Love and service are woven through the whole event. It stays informal and natural, but it’s built with intention.
We aim to be more than a place to dwell or a means to gather — a hub that pulls people in, just to be. Friendships will form, people will feel welcomed and hosted, and it will grow organically.
Yep. The BBQ is on us — we just ask you to register so we know how much food to prep.
Please do. Add them when you register, or send them the link so they can sign up themselves.
Tell us in the form — vegetarian, halal, no beef, allergies — and we’ll do our best to cater for you.
Not at all. Come alone, come as you are. Leaving with new friends is kind of the point.
Head to *SCAPE Plaza on Level 1 of *SCAPE, 2 Orchard Link — a short walk from Somerset MRT.
No stress. Open the pass link from your registration and release your spot so someone else can come.
