John Andrew sent ECI this update:
On Rogation Sunday sunflower seeds were distributed to the children which they will plant and care for during the next few months. Hopefully they will have a beautiful tall sunflower in late summer! At harvest there will be prizes for the tallest sunflowers.
Our Eco Group is embarking on a series of projects to enhance biodiversity in the church grounds at St Mary’s, Carrigaline. All pesticides, herbicides and weed killers are banned from the church grounds which gives us a very good advantage.
Our first step has been to enlarge and reseed the wild flower area to encourage pollinators, particularly bees. We are eagerly awaiting flowering!
