The Farming for Water team has been busy attending promotional events

Since the Farming for Water EIP project got underway in early 2024, team members under the guidance of Project Lead, Mairead Whitty have been out and about at farmer related events promoting the project and outlining the process to all interested parties.

The project has been very well received and applications to get involved have been steadily processed by the office team through the work of the ASSAP and Co-Op advisors.

How did you hear about the project? Perhaps you attended one of the events featured in this sections?
