Bandon Allotments, a community organised project which began early last year, has been growing from strength to strength ever since. The Allotments have seen more than thirty families taking up plots during the first year and are looking forward to welcoming lots of new members this growing season.
There are many new and exciting developments to report at the Allotments this year also. Thanks to a generous grant from West Cork Development Partnership the allotment members can look forward to having poly-tunnels, tool-sheds and many other facilities at the allotment site in the near future.
We are celebrating our achievements with an Open Day on Saturday May 14th from 2pm and invite everyone to come along and help us celebrate in style. If you’re interested in getting an allotment plot this is an ideal opportunity to have a look around and meet other members and if you’re just looking for a bit of fun and entertainment for the kids on a Saturday afternoon you’re more than welcome too.
There will be Composting Demonstrations on the day, kindly sponsored by Cork County Council Composting Awareness. There will also be plenty of music, food, games and kids entertainment to keep the whole family happy.
