A fantastic day of plants, gardening and outdoor inspiration was had in Laois at this year’s Buds & Blossoms Garden Festival.
Spink's Community Grounds came to life for the event on Sunday, June 7 with expert talks, specialist growers, rare plants, live demonstrations, music, food, family entertainment and some of the finest garden nurseries and suppliers in the country. Photographer Alf Harvey was there for the Leinster Express/Laois Live and captured all the fun.
