Many hands make light work
CRAIGPARK – Rosen and the volunteers started planting spinach and kale seeds on September 11, and will be planting more seeds as the seasons change.
Craigpark Residents Association (CRA) committee member dedicates her time and efforts toward food security.
Andrea Rosen is a committee member of the CRA who started a pavement vegetable garden on Grosvenor Avenue close to the Craighall Primary School. Each committee member of the CRA was given a budget to put toward a Covid-19 project of their own choice.
Rosen chose to build and plant pavement vegetable gardens which will in time help feed the numerous homeless people in the area as well as others that are struggling to make ends meet.
Rosen told the Rosebank Killarney Gazette that she started this project so that the less fortunate can help themselves to fresh vegetables and to promote the concept of pavement vegetable gardens.
“A couple of pavement vegetable gardens can’t make much of a difference, but if we all did them, we can make a difference.”
