'Grow green’ at Dungannon Park
Two workshops at Dungannon Park taking place on June 7 and June 21 will help you grow your own fruit and veg on a budget and in a way that doesn’t harm the environment, reduce your carbon footprint and adapts your gardening practices and crops to climate change.
It requires some knowledge and forward planning, but most of all your willingness to do things differently – why not find out a bit more from Yvonne Zellmann who will deliver the workshops.
Book your space for a half hour information session in Dungannon Park (Fishing Lodge) to get tips, advice and new ideas on how to adapt your fruit and vegetable garden to our changing climate.
There are three time slots available on the two evenings, which can be booked by calling Dungannon Park on 028 8772 8690.
