Demonstrations, events and meetings.

Members of Togher Community Garden launching National Allotments and Community Gardens Week.

Community growers from all over Ireland are being invited to celebrate and share the positive impact allotments and community gardens play during the upcoming National Allotments and Community Gardens Week. This year will see the second National Allotments and Community Gardens Week taking place from October 12th to 19th. The theme of this year’s Week is Healthy Soil and CGI hopes that allotments, community gardens, school gardens, tidy towns and local growers throughout Ireland will get involved and celebrate how important community growing spaces are to local soil health.
