1. To learn the practical skills in erection of a tunnel.

2. To learn and develop horticulture skills in propagating and cultivation of summer bedding plants and shrubs for use in our various floral displays throughout the village.

3. To learn and develop horticulture skills in propagating and cultivation of salad crops for use by our Active Retirement Group for whom a light lunch is prepared and served at their weekly get together.

Clogher Heritage Centre wish to thank everyone who attended our National Heritage Week event in association with The Drum Inn.

Featured in the image is a Famine pot which has been beautifully restored by Tommy one of out heritage guides. The Irish Famine Pot [which contained the soup] “sometimes referred to as workhouse pots” were made of cast iron. They came in various sizes and most of them were supplied by the Government under the Soup Kitchen Act to alleviate hunger and prevent starvation, by providing free soup to the populace.
