OxfamGarden, our annual Grow for Africa scheme, is aimed at getting experienced gardeners and enthusiastic amateurs alike involved in raising plants and funds to help the world's poorest people.
Launching the scheme for 2007, renowned gardening guru Dermot O'Neill said: "I consider it an honour to be asked to be involved with the Oxfamgarden Grow for Africa campaign. You don't need to be an expert to get involved. By growing the Oxfam Ireland range of seeds you are contributing to a worthwhile and valuable cause while at the same time reaping the pleasures and joy of growing plants too."
Peter Tomlinson, Oxfam Ireland business development manager said: "We hope Dermot's support for Oxfamgarden will encourage other gardeners to get out their trowels and Grow for Africa. The beauty of this scheme is that everyone involved wins. Customers love the plants, growers get a real sense of achievement from seeing their handiwork sold in our shops and, of course, we raise funds for Oxfam Ireland's vital work. "
