We are delighted to have completed another project, a rainwater garden located on the Ballymahon Road near the river. With the help and advice of David Quinn, Community Water Officer Longford & Westmeath this project features plants specifically chosen to they help to remove toxins from the water entering the river. Thanks goes to Brian McCormack of McCormack Fuels, Ballygoshen, Edgeworthstown who donated and transported the bark dressing for the bed. We’d like to thank Michael Spillane and his crew for their work on this and we’d also like to thank Victoria, Janis and Oleksander in the Green for their help with this project.
It’s that time of the year again, we are starting to sell lines for our annual fundraiser. Lines will be on sale at the Post Office and we will be selling lines outside Duffys Super Valu Edgeworthstown on the 19th September between 10am and 4 pm so please come along and support us.
Some acknowledgements now for our CE workers who do great work around the town and in the Green managing litter and weeds. They help to enhance the streetscape and approach roads. We’d also like to thank Mostrim Men’s Shed who built and erected the surrounds for the town signs on the Ballymahon and Bracklin Roads.
We appreciate all the help. Keep up the good work.
