Green recycling at its best.🥗💚 Lovely cakes and chat after! Well done everyone, a great morning's work

The Litter Crew is out every second Tuesday 10am to 11am. Here's a little sample of all the great work they do in keeping Castleknock Beautiful.

Thank you all for being part of the GREEN CLEAN UP! We maintained CTT trees at Georgian Village. To support trees, we fixed tree stakes kindly provided by FCC Operations. Cleared and pulled back overgrown grass from the tree bases and mulched the surrounding tree base with CTT’s locally made mulch. We finished up with a celebration coffee and were very grateful for delicious pastries kindly provided by Melo. Happy St Patrick’s Day and thanks to all for supporting Trees,

We planted 8 apple trees, 2 plum trees and surrounded them with native bluebells, cowslips and orchids which were cultivated at CTT’s polytunnel.

Thanks to CTT volunteers for making the difference locally and supporting National Tree Week’s ambitious program of countrywide tree planting. A glorious day of sunshine.

There’s still plenty to look forward to — our CTT 2026 Calendar is coming out soon and the Village Tree Lighting Ceremony to b

Lots of great work today! Crocus bulbs were planted along College Road — sure to bring a wonderful burst of colour in early spring. The nearby pollinator bed was weeded and the paths cleared, creating a lovely space for all who pass by or pause at the bench, with some vibrant flowers still blooming. Over at Castleknock Lawn Tennis Club, the CTT team did a fantastic job preparing the flower bed for planting. A great spread of effort and care right across Castleknock Well done
