If, like us, you find yourself mesmerised by the vast array of bounty springing from gardens at this time of year, Sonairte, the National Ecology Centre in Laytown, Co. Meath is currently hosting a series of monthly workshops where you can learn how to grow your own.
Get your hands dirty with gardener Damien McGroarty as he leads practical sessions on the value of soil composition and biodiversity, while sharing tips on how to successfully grow a diversity of flowers, vegetables, fruits and herbs.
Each two-hour long workshop takes place in the historic surroundings of Sonairte’s 250 year old walled gardens, and tickets for the next event, scheduled for 10am on Saturday August 6th are available via Eventbrite.
