Juicie Jim from GIY Waterford is coming to Galway Libraries this Tuesday 20th of February for a FREE talk and workshop, as part of Healthy Ireland at your library.
Juicie Jim is a Living Food, Foraging and Growing Instructor from Waterford who has been involved with GIY since 2011. He got his name from doing popup juice and probiotic bars and workshops at festivals around the country. He will be in Galway on Tuesday 20th of February to give talks at three libraries as part of the Healthy Ireland at your Library initiative. Jim will talk about GIY and how to easily grow some of your own food. Jim has lots of knowledge to share and has been part of the education team at GROW HQ since it opened in October 2016.
Jim will do a quick workshop in sprouting and fermentation as part of his talk. He will have copies of the new edition of the award winning GROW COOK EAT book by Michael Kelly, ahead of the TV series of the same name which will launch on RTE 1 on March 14th.

Thanks Jim and Katie, I am now a member of Irish seedsavers and am currently signed up for their Orchard planting course. I was aware of them already but your advice spurred me on to get in touch with them , cheers
Hi Paddy, Jim is right - the best place to go is Irish Seed Savers - they will be able to advise on options for keeping costs down!
Hey Paddy, the cheapest way would be to buy some root stock and graft your own apple trees. Irish seed savers would sell you root stock and sions or you could cut your own sions. All the best, Jim
