In late March 2022, Dublin Community Growers held their Annual General Meeting at Cherry Orchard (South West Dublin).  Peadar Lynch, manager of the Ballyfermot Chapelizod Partnership Garden Project, and his team have a set of very productive polytunnels as part of their growing facilities at Cherry Orchard. The team supplies local supermarkets, cafés and a food co-op with a wide variety of interesting salads all year round, with great attention to food hygiene and organic principles.  Peadar is eager to spread the word about all of this to help others promote the selling of local food to the community in all seasons, and can be contacted via info[at]bcpartnership.ie
