ABOUT IRISH SEED SAVERS The Irish Seed Savers Association was set up in 1991 to save Ireland s heritage and heirloom vegetable seeds, potatoes, grains and fruit trees from extinction. We have over 800 varieties of organic, open pollinated heritage seeds in our purpose built Seed Bank and our extensive heritage gardens house the native Apple Tree Collection together with the country s only self-rooting orchard. We share our skills and knowledge with thousands of children and adults through courses, camps and outreach programmes.

Your contribution will ensure that this living legacy can be held in trust for future generations.

Products of the hive: honey, wax, propolis, pollen. The importance of the native black bee, apis mellifera mellifera. Includes an apiary inspection (weather permitting). Saturday, September 10th, 10am-4.30pm GARDENING Creating an Orchard We are continuing to see a renewed interest in the revival of the traditional Irish Orchard and most people have fond memories of orchards from their childhood. This course will cover choice of site, layout of orchard, choosing rootstocks, soil preparation, drainage, maintenance, health and disease, and choosing varieties. Soil health and improvement and pruning techniques will also be covered. Whether you are a farmer, a small-holder, or an apple enthusiast, this workshop will provide you with a perfect grounding. Highly recommended. Sunday 11th September, 10am-4.30pm & Sunday 20th November, 10am-4:30pm Making the most of your Polytunnel A Polytunnel is a wonderful addition to your garden for year round vegetable production. It provides a bright warm space for sowing seeds, propagating plants and for growing heat loving vegetables like tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. It can extend the growing season of some vegetables considerably and provide a family with a constant supply of fresh healthy greens throughout the year. If you want to get the most out of your tunnel then this is the course for you. The day will cover creating the right conditions for continuous production, how to keep your plants healthy, managing pests and diseases, successional, autumn and winter sowing and some hands-on propagation of crops you can grow now and take home for your own tunnel. Material cost: 5 Saturday 10th September, 10am-4.30pm An Introduction to Seed Saving Saving seeds is completing the gardens natural cycle, from seed to seed. Selection, harvesting and drying. This workshop will give gardeners basic skills to harvest and save seed from vegetable crops in their own gardens, to keep varieties going from year to year. It will include a little bit of botany and lots of practical experience harvesting seeds in the Irish Seed Savers Association gardens. Saturday 10th September, 10am-4.30pm
5 GARDENING Winter Pruning in the Orchard This workshop gives a detailed and practical introduction to formative, maintenance, restorative and disease pruning through theory, orchard observations and pruning demonstrations. By the end of the day you will have the skills to make informed pruning decisions on a wide range of trees. To start the morning you are introduced to all the pruning tools needed. Importantly, we then cover some pruning theory to understand fruit trees and, particularly, how they react to pruning a little better. Before lunch you are then given a detailed demonstration of formative pruning for young trees. We restart with a quick walk through our maturing orchards observing a range of fruit trees not only young but also old, strong and weak. Other considerations are also discussed. This is followed by a pruning demonstration on a number of these trees. The day finishes with a discussion on disease pruning, restorative pruning and more. The main tree shapes discussed are open-centre and central leader (a more pyramid style shape). As much of the afternoon will be spent outdoors weatherproof and extremely warm clothing (particularly warm footwear) is absolutely essential. Saturday 19th November, 10am-4:30pm & Saturday 14th January 2017, 10am-4:30pm An Introduction to Permaculture How we can live more sustainably, grow food intensively and strengthen the resilience of our communities? The answer could be to use nature as the inspiration to create solutions for our own and our community s wellbeing. The design process called Permaculture starts with the simple idea of working with, rather than against nature to create an ecologically sound way of living. In this workshop Davie Philip from Cultivate and Cloughjordan Ecovillage will introduce the context, ethics and principles of Permaculture design. This workshop is classroom based. Sunday 20th November, 10am-4:30pm CRAFTS & SKILLS Wild Food Foraging Join us for a day of exploring the hedgerows identifying the edible and medicinal uses of the local wild plants and trees we find along the way, together with some historical and folklore snippets.

Please inquire if you wish to order any of these trees or have any questions on equipment or materials. Sunday 11th September, 10am-4.30pm Introduction to Herbal Remedy Making (aka Reclaiming our Roots) This workshop will give participants a rounded introduction to some of the healing properties of common plants (our herbal and weedy friends!) found in gardens, hedgerows and wild places, and how to benefit from them in support of our health and well-being.
