GIY Wexford (Grow it Yourself)

On the third Monday night of every month a group of like-minded people keen to learn about growing their own food meet in the Riverbank House Hotel at 7.30pm in Wexford. The aim of the group is to get together and discuss and encourage each other in the task of growing their own food, learning to lead a healthier and more sustainable lifestyle. The group is a source of shared learning and some experienced growers. They have run the group since 2009 covering many topics and visited several places including a visit to Cloughjordan ECO Village. Learn some tips on growing and what to stock in your garden. Everyone is welcome, for more information and contact details click on the links below.
