Long weekends tend to result in extra #litter - particularly if the weather is nice.

So thanks to our #volunteers who picked the #GreenFlag #LiffeyLinearPark earlier - happily just a bag & a half of litter found.

We'll be back over the weekend to service the bins again.

Inspiring visit to @Maynoothgeog Festival of Food Sovereignty on Friday. The food system is broken, but there are green shoots and some great people working to rebuild it. Check out @coroots_ie @OurSharedPlate @bfcdublin_CliCo for a start.

Shocking to consider how dependent we are on food imports. Help us as we help to rebuild our local food system.

Delighted to take part in Feeding Ourselves 2024 and tell our story as a new Community Food Hub.

[Environmental Pillar @Env_Pillar]

Great conversations around short food supply chains, digitalisation and stronger local food economies on day 2 of the Feeding Ourselves Gathering 2024

[Nicky Kyle Gardening @nickykylegarden]

Just popped in briefly to say if you want a good crop of beefsteak #tomatoes, sow them NOW! Whatever #summer we get - in my 40+ yrs experience, ripening depends more on plant maturity than loads of sunshine, although sun improves flavour!🌞Only sowing mine today as still unwell!

Support local food.

Decentralise away from supermarkets, mass production and know WHAT you are putting on your plate. 🥦🍓🍆

Eat seasonally. It only makes sense to work with nature.
