Kilkenny 'Postcard Garden' wins Bloom award!
Congratulations to Ballyfoyle Community Garden
A garden designed by a Kilkenny rural community has won one of the coveted judges' awards at the Bord Bia Bloom festival!
Ballyfoyle Community Group's Postcard Garden has been awarded a Certificate of Distinction.
The garden will be replanted in Ballyfoyle’s Memorial Garden after the festival. It is inspired by the surrounding landscape and local history of Ballyfoyle.
Each Postcard Garden enables the gardening or community group to promote the benefits of green spaces in their local community and foster connections during the festival.
