Parents for the Planet: ‘They eat whatever comes out of the garden’
DONAL Chambers is course co-ordinator on Kinsale College’s Sustainability and Permaculture course and the chair of Transition Towns Kinsale. His partner Máiread Cronin trained as a veterinary nurse and now combines care of the couple’s children with volunteering with St Vincent De Paul and training as a Roots of Empathy instructor.
Donal and Máiread are parents to Éala, 8, and Ría, 6. Two years ago they moved to a cottage on three quarters of an acre in Dunderrow, near Kinsale, and have been renovating the house and designing their own permaculture garden since.
