Become a “Friend of GIY”

The “Friend of GIY” 2011 card allows you to make a donation to support the work of GIY and at the same time save yourself money on GIY-related purchases.  We have teamed up with Woodies DIY, Quickcrop and The Organic Centre to bring you valuable discounts on seeds, seedlings, raised beds, gardening tools, polytunnels, courses, books and more.  We will also be adding retailers to the scheme throughout the year (if your company is interested in getting involved please email us atinfo@giyireland.com).  All proceeds from the Friend of GIY 2011 card programme go to support the vital work of GIY Ireland which is not-for-profit and a registered charity (CHY 18920).  GIY meetings and membership are free and open to all.
