Garden to open again for KARE

Gardening lovers have a treat in store when Mary and Francis Shortt again open their beautiful garden to the public in aid of KARE.

The open days take place from 1pm-6pm on Saturday and Sunday, 10 and 11 July. Admission is €6 which includes light refreshments. Parking is available each day. The Shortt's garden is located close to the Round Tower just outside Kilcullen.

This year's event also sees an art exhibition by the Kilcullen Art Group, run by Sabina Reddy, as well as plant and cake sales, and a raffle.

Last year's event raised €3,000 for KARE. Contact Mary Shortt at 086 8234856 for more info.
