Planting Flowers

We have a beautiful selection of plants and flowers planted to the front of the centre these include Begonia's, Alyssum's, and Lupinus.

Gardening - Planters for herbs

Trainees made a herb planter for planting some herbs - basil, parsley, sage, chives, rosemary etc

Growing Herbs
Herbs are easy to grow so anyone can do it!  Sow herbs from seed in seed trays from March or April. Place the trays on a sunny window sill and keep the soil moist. Thin out to one seedling per module when they germinate. Plant out in May.

Herbs to Try: Basil, Thyme, Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, Marjoram, Mint and Chives.

National Tree Week

As part of National Tree Week we got some free tree saplings from Sligo County Council for the centre garden. This will help improve the look of the garden.
