🌱 Growing Native Tree Nurseries with Local Schools 🌳Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve been delighted to continue our biodiversity work with St Joseph’s NS, Mell, and St. Mary's Parish Primary School, Bryanstown, following on from the work we started back in May with the building of tree seed nursery beds in both schools .As part of this latest phase, a key activity was gathering seeds locally such as oak, crab apple , alder , hazel and birch and planting them in the nursery beds. These seeds will hopefully grow into small saplings plants next year, which can then be replanted and over time will grow into full trees, helping to support biodiversity and enhance our local environment. 🌳The project helps students develop their knowledge, awareness, interest and practical skills in collecting and growing native trees, while learning how they can support local biodiversity and protect our environment. 🌱There has also been some great growing and harvesting in the meantime! The students at St Mary’s grew potatoes in their tree nursery over summer and were able to enjoy some lovely chips made from this crop. 🥔🍟This work forms part of our Biodiversity Action work supported by funding from Community Foundation Ireland.A big thank you to the 5th and 6th Classes in both schools and their teachers, Ann McEvoy in St Joseph’s and Michell Devin in St Mary’s, for their help and support with this work.#DroghedaTidyTowns #Biodiversity #CommunityFoundationIreland #NativeTrees #MellNS #StJosephsNS #StMarysBryanstown #Sustainability #Drogheda #LouthBiodiversity #wildwaydesign ...
