Bandon Allotments Open Day May 14th

*Bandon Allotments Still Growing *

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
14thfrom 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. See
