Back garden growers wanted for GrowHQ

    GrowHQ are seeking out a few volunteers who are available on Tuesdays to mulch muck in as the kitchen gardens are developed and the three acre site in general is made good.

    The work would be a mix of jobs most of which will be connected with the preparation and planting of the beds (about 40 at Grow) over the next few months. If you have a flair for horticulture digging and weeding and own some scruffy jeans and runners drop me a PM over the next few days.

    The good news is that things are now drying out quite nicely so it shouldn't be a trenchfoot slog and if it is a foul day obviously you can skip that week :)

    The Grow site is at the WRH roundabout, the ring road/Dunmore East road junction.
