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,


CTT Tree Planting and Bulb Planting in Park Drive
We planted 8 apple trees, 2 plum trees and surrounded them with native bluebells, cowslips and orchids which were cultivated at CTT’s polytunnel. The area will be a no mow area allowing nature blossom. Thanks to FCC Operations for their support in digging the holes and transporting the trees. 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.

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
