RED Gardens
Based on the explorations and discoveries of a series of food growing spaces, located in the Cloughjordan Ecovillage, Tipperary, Ireland. This RED Gardens Project (Research, Education and Development) consists of 6 family scale gardens each one 100m2 (1000sqf) and following a different methodology, or approach, to growing vegetables. There is also a larger Black Plot, which is currently being managed as the collective of friends growing food for ourselves and others.
Bruce Darrell (he/she/them) manages all of the gardens and related research projects, as well as scripting, filming, illustrating, and editing the videos on this channel.
