Provision of Community Growing Spaces in Ireland: Community Gardens Ireland
Mr. D?nal McCormack:
My name is Dónal McCormack and I am here representing Community Gardens Ireland.
Community Gardens Ireland is a volunteer network of over 100 community gardens and allotments in existence since 2011. Last year we helped with over 66 direct queries supporting new and existing gardens and advised on the setting up of school gardens.
In my case, I live in Blessington, County Wicklow. My role here today is as chairperson of Community Gardens Ireland, and I am joined by Maeve Foreman.
