Crowds set to Bloom in the Park in botanical health fest

POTTERING about in the garden has long been regarded as a health-enhancing activity for people of all ages.

But now the concept is to be developed further at Bloom, the country’s leading garden festival, which will be held in the Phoenix Park, Dublin, over the June Bank Holiday weekend (May 29-June 2).

Pfizer Healthcare Ireland, one of the primary sponsors of the Bord Bia-hosted event, will be on hand to provide health screening for gardening enthusiasts.
