Ireland: How a Tipperary community garden is bringing people together

“It’s the groups, it’s the likes of the Lions Club who have donated money to the garden, the Men’s Shed then took that money and bought timber and built all the raised beds, and everybody’s involved in putting up the greenhouse,”

“There were three people at the table here who were strangers to me, but I got to know them since, and the other three of us around the table, we knew each other, and everybody’s after bringing something to the table,” he said.
“We were a bit shy about actually forming a group, but to have the direction from the librarians was great, and then once we got out to working on the garden, I think people came into their own with regard to the skills they brought,” Mr Daly added.
This year, crops in the garden were planted a bit too late, but the group has big plans for the coming year.
“From a gardening point of view, it was a bit late,” Mr Daly said.
“The first crops weren’t planted until May, but on the other hand, when you look back on the whole year, I think it was a major success,” he added.
The community garden has a greenhouse, fruit trees, and raised beds, growing crops like garlic, strawberries, squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, as well as herbs like rosemary and parsley. The garden also has a wildflower section, which it plans to expand next year.
