Are there allotment plots available in Kilcoole

Hi folks

Interested in an update as to this group please. Is there a meet-up planned for this summer?

Kind regards,
Pauric

Hi. I am looking to set up a small allotment in an empty undevelopable green space adjacent my housing estate in bray. Would you be able to touch base to get some advice and pointers? Eilish

Newcastle Hospital in Killadreenan are looking for volunteers in their gardens, if anyone local is interested please contact Wicklow Volunteer Centre:

"Gardener - Friends of Newcastle Hospital

Volunteers are needed to help support a new garden initiative in Newcastle Hospital, Newtownmountkennedy.

The new garden will involve the development of a sensory area, a vegetable plot and glass house and the overhaul of the existing area.

If you have green fingers or a general interest in gardening and have an hour or two a week we would appreciate your involvement in this new initiative. There will be no heavy work but the garden will require ongoing maintenance and development."

Update on the search for an allotment site in Kilcoole: we are still trying to get a response from Wicklow County Council's housing department, who are responsible for a large council-owned site on Lott Lane. They have verbally agreed to do allotments here but we are trying to get more details on their plans for this land.

I have also reached out to see if we can contact the new owners of the Convent about allotments and community gardens on that land.

I hope everyone had a great summer growing whatever you were able.
