We’re incredibly proud that Bloom School of Horticulture was invited to help create the Community Garden at Electric Picnic!

It was a real pleasure to welcome the new Rose of Tralee to the garden and see the space come to life.

A wonderful project to be part of!

Huge well done to all of the team in Bloom!

A sincere thank you to Emma Mullins who is taking on an incredible challenge to raise funds for us.

This October, Emma will travel to the UK to trek 100km over four days through Northumberland, including sections of the iconic Hadrian’s Wall.

Emma will be trekking for around 10 hours each day, covering varied and challenging terrain. With limited recovery time between each day, it will be a real test of endurance.

We are very grateful to Emma for taking on this challenge in support of us and wish her the very best with her training and the trek in October.

If you would like to donate to Emma's fundraiser, you can do so here:
