Patchwork perfect

20 January 2012

The Coleraine Conservation Action Team have made the best of the fine January weather to deliver an allotment project for the charity 'Patchwork' at a site near Portrush.

The charity will use the garden as a haven for those rehabilitating from drug and alcohol misuse.

The team has constructed  a series of raised beds both outdoors and inside the two polytunnels with pathways designed to be accessible for all users of the facility.

A substantial hen run has also been erected.

It is hoped that the site can be further enhanced in the coming months to include a potting shed and an outdoor social space for barbeques and fine dining with fresh produce direct from the garden!
