Amy McLoughlin speaks to Catherine Yeats from the Elderflower Garden Club in Carlow.
The club meets weekly at a formerly derelict site behind Avoca House in Carlow. The site has been transformed into an eco-garden where the group grows vegetables and flowers.
The pesticide-free garden is managed on sustainable and organic principles. Rainwater is collected on-site and includes a solar-powered water feature, bug hotels, and bird boxes.
