Riverwood estate, Carpenterstown, Dublin 15
Councillor Pamela Conroy and the Laurel Lodge Environmental Group installed a Leaf Mould Cage in Riverwood last week. It is at the very end of Riverwood Chase, near the water pump house.
Feel free to add leaves to the cage. This time next year the leaves will be a useful compost and will be even better in two years time.
The location on Riverwood Chase was chosen as other options were too exposed or would interfere with open space users.
The group tackled the overgrown pollinator patch, giving it a much needed tidy.
The group met with new members and came up with short, medium and long term actions.
