| Sunday 4th March 2007....Leaflet Drop |
|
A few of us did a leaflet drop around the neighbourhood on Sunday afternoon. I myself was quite impressed with the positive feedback on the idea. As well as this, we arrived on a general concensus that a general cleanup of the site, canal and laneway would be a good idea for the next visit. Cathal has done up a
general layout
of plans for the the site. One of the proposals is to plant
wildflowers on the bank |

| Scariff Seed Savers Cycle!!!! |
|
Who was the originator of this great idea??? Time now to see who's interested and start making provisional plans. I think the cycle from Dublin might be a bit extreme and take most of the enjoyment out of it so....how about some scenic cycling from Galway/Limerick or Ennis to Seed Savers and having a 2 to 3 day cycle (daily 30-40 miles ish)/camping trip around the Burren area! Who's up for it?> Patrick |

| Saint Joseph's National School, Barry Avenue, Finglas Wed 31 May (6pm) |
|
We had an enjoyable evening in the new garden at Saint Joseph's National School last Wednesday. Seven gardeners were there enjoying the sun, the craic and the earth. Next Wednesday we have the opportunity to publicise the garden at a plant sale organised by DCC in Saint Joseph's school. This is being held between 6 p.m. & 8p.m. and we hope to hand out fliers and meet some potential locals who would like to garden communally. So on Wednesday 31st there will be people outside the school gardening and people inside the school doing some publicity and maybe picking up a few plants for the garden. |
