Expo City Farm, a new farm built at Expo City Dubai will allow public to see firsthand how fruits and vegetables are grown in the desert

A new farm at Expo City Dubai (ECD) will let the public witness firsthand how fruits and vegetables are cultivated in the desert when COP28 opens. Known as Expo City Farm, these indoor and outdoor areas will be filled with crops that are resistant to climate change by COP28 and will be a long-term feature of the Expo community. It is one of the draws for UAE citizens and tourists to attend COP28 and actively make a commitment to the environment because it is free to the public. From November 30 to December 12, the Conference of the Parties of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) will hold its 28th conference, or COP28.

The farm will hold community seminars and culinary lessons with sustainability-minded chefs and experts during the global climate conference.

Two zones will be present at COP28. The Green Zone is a public forum for fostering discussion and raising awareness of climate action. World leaders, official delegations, and anyone affiliated with the United Nations agency responsible with coordinating the international response to the threat of climate change are permitted entry inside the Blue Zone.

During COP28, public access to Expo City Dubai's pavilions and attractions in the Green Zone is free; however, certain activities may require extra registration or tickets. The Green Zone is available to the public from December 3 to December 12. Guests should visit www.cop28.com to register for a dated Green Zone Day Pass.
