National Allotments and Community Gardens Week – 12th to 19th October 2024

The second National Allotments and Community Gardens Week will be taking place in Ireland from 12th – 19th October 2024!

The event is being run to raise awareness of allotments and community gardens, to highlight how important they are and to detail the huge benefits of community gardening for communities, individuals, biodiversity and the local environment.

The 2024 theme is Healthy Soil and it is hoped that many allotments, community gardens, school gardens, tidy towns and local growers in Ireland can get involved to celebrate how important community growing spaces are.

Last year’s National Week involved over 30 events organised throughout the island of Ireland, encouraged discussions on community growing in communities throughout Ireland, and also saw the first ever Community Gardens Bill proposed.
