Maigue Rivers Trust is holding two information evenings in November to inform farmers about grant funding and practical measures to improve water quality in the River Maigue catchment.
The events will introduce Aidan Suart, the Trust’s newly appointed Farming for Water Agricultural Community Animator, who will explain the measures available through the Farming for Water programme and the financial supports for participating farms.
Farmers will also learn how Suart can assist with applications and accessing grant payments. The first evening is on Monday 2 November at Granagh Community Hall, Co. Limerick (V35 C584), and the second on Tuesday 10 November at Lough Gur Visitor Centre, Co. Limerick (V35 ED96).
Both sessions begin with a meet‑and‑greet from 6 pm, followed by food and refreshments at 6.30 pm and an information talk at 7 pm. Farmers are encouraged to attend, ask questions and discover available support for their farms.
For further details, contact Aidan Suart on 086 172 2537.
