Thurles “Grow It Yourself,” (GIY) will hold their monthly meeting on Wednesday, May 8th next, here at the Cabragh Wetlands Centre, Thurles, beginning sharp at 7.30pm.
Kay Hanrahan from Thurles Farmers Market will be there to give a talk and demonstration on the topic; “Wheatgrass and Live food.”
As always new comers and old GIY members are welcome to wander in, with Tea/Coffee available to all at the end of the meeting, not to mention the usual one to one gardening advice and friendly chat.
Keep in mind that vegetables can be grown on most soils (light, medium or heavy) provided they are well drained, so no excuses please.
While Spring may have gotten off to a slow start, remember also there is a huge amount of satisfaction to be experienced from growing at least some part of the food you eat and a well organised garden or an allotment is a huge asset to any family.
Who knows, maybe your vegetable growing, this year, will rapidly develop into the most absorbing of hobbies.
