With the gardening year on the cusp, the National Trust at Springhill, Moneymore, are teaming up with The Conservation Volunteers to offer a six-week Community Gardening Workshop in conjunction with the TCV’s Green Gym Project.

The sessions will provide an opportunity to 'Join in, feel good' at Springhill, strengthening connections between the people and the place.

From plant propagation to composting, sowing vegetables, dividing perennials, and all sorts of gardening shenanigans, the sessions will be informative and diverse to make sure there is something for everyone.

Of course, there will be a bit of work to do as we get the old drying yard back into shape as a growing space and there will be plenty of opportunity to get your hands dirty!
