Whilst my previous working life did include teaching horticulture, the last few years have seen that skill been recalled into action. Public gardening demonstrations, certificate classes to schools in Dublin, garden sessions with Fingal Libraries and talks to Gardening and Horticultural societies all took place throughout 2011.
Live in the heart of the Dublin City Centre, in a community hall, in the middle of a field or in the library – every venue and almost every possible topic was covered.
Bookings and inquiries are now being taken for 2012.
Recent Examples of Garden Talks and Gardening Demonstrations:
- Talks for Castleknock and District Gardening Society and Clontarf Gardening Society.
- Grow your own garden talks and workshops with Fingal Libraries and Fingal primary schools. [2011]
- In a free to the public event, I was one of the acts for Dublin City Council’s Urban Living in Dublin City [2011] that took place live in Wolfe Tone Square.
- I organised, put together and spoke at the Oldbridge Country Fair garden Talks. [2011]
- The talker of gardens that I am, alongside Brian Greene I host The SodShow, Dublin’s Garden Radio Show on 103.2 Dublin City Fm
Other:
- I also run the Garden Group and am more than happy to chat garden tours and outings tailor-made to suit you, your needs and your group.
