Griffith Barracks School's Plot




On Wednesday, Griffith Barracks Multi Denominational school's green council (http://www.griffithbarracks.ie/green-council) walked down to the community garden with a wheel barrow of compost. They had a tour of the garden and added the compost that they had made to the plot that we have given them. They each planted peas that we had saved from last year. We are looking forward to having them participate in the project.

South Circular Road Community Food Garden Project

The South Circular Road Community Food Garden Project started in April 2007. We have a derelict site on loan from ST Salvage Company that we have converted into a community food garden. This is a continuation of the initial successful Dolphins Barn Community squatted food garden that was on the canal from 2005 -2007.
