Volunteering

alexjk · 2015-04-27 18:31:09

Hi, I am moving back to Ireland in the coming month, having spent the last 2 years in Canada. I took part in an urban gardening group here, and I'm looking to do something similar once I get back to Ireland. Do any of you know of any gardening/horticultural organisations in the Dublin area that offer volunteer positions?…

Hi,

I am moving back to Ireland in the coming month, having spent the last 2 years in Canada. I took part in an urban gardening group here, and I'm looking to do something similar once I get back to Ireland.

Do any of you know of any gardening/horticultural organisations in the Dublin area that offer volunteer positions? It doesn't necessarily have to be urban gardening, I can venture into the countryside if need be.

Thanks!

There's a community garden in Santry, they're usually looking for members. It's a walled garden in the demense and it's gorgeous.
