It was a fantastidcally succesful day, organised bt SEED, our first ever national school gardens network (www.schoolearthed.ieFantasitc and memorable day-great to see school gardening getting the attention it deserves! With Trevor Sergeant giving our opening address and old stalwarts of the school garden world such as Paddy Madden and Ian McGrigor in tow. There were workshops and talks throughtout the day, and more to come in the near future we hope!
