Comfrey plants for sale

To raise funds for Transition Derry I'm selling Russian Comfrey plants - used by organic growers as green fertilizer, they also have powerful medicinal properties. I have several hundred small plants I've grown from cuttings, & I'm selling them for £1 each, £5 for 10, and concessions on even larger quantities. All proceeds will go to Transition Derry. If you'd like some, please contact me on 07812454356 or waynefoord@hotmail.com.

sustainable tip from Transiiton Town Kildare

For a natural alternative to household cleaners mix the juice of a half lemon, 9 drops of thyme essential oil, 500ml of boiled water and a sprig or 2 of thyme for decoration, add to your spray bottle and you have a very effective, sweet smelling anti bacterial household spray.

Foraging For Food

I'm interested in learning about food we can gather for free in the wild. The Organic Centre in Leitrim has a day course in August. And we can download detailed and useful information with beautiful photos from the Wild Food School. Happy eating!
