🌱 Agri Aware’s ‘Incredible Edibles’ is back for 2025–2026!

Primary schools across Ireland are invited to take part in another fun-filled year of growing, learning, and healthy eating all while discovering where our food really comes from 🍓🥕

Now in its 19th year, the programme helps students get hands-on experience by growing their own fruits and veggies in school gardens

To celebrate the launch, last year’s winners Dunboyne Senior Primary School (Co. Meath) and St. Oliver Plunkett NS (Co. Dublin) joined us at Country Crest, Lusk, alongside programme sponsors and horticulturist Niall McCauley, who shared expert planting tips 💡

Over 72,000 students took part last year will your school join the fun this year?
