Lislea Men’s Shed
Annual Coffee Morning, Sunday 7th June
On Sunday 7th June, we held our annual Coffee Morning and Plant Sale in The McCann Hall, Lislea Community Centre, Mountain Road, Lislea. Filled Planters, Filled Hanging Bags and Hanging Baskets plus assorted Roses and Hydrangea were available and very popular. In addition, local “Limited Edition” Photographic Prints were for sale on the day.
Visit to Muchgrange House and Farm
Shed members enjoyed a fantastic day yesterday at Muchgrange House and Muchgrange Farm, Cooley. We were welcomed by Rosie, Kathleen and Caroline Hanlon and given a comprehensive tour of the Agricultural Machinery and Farming Artefacts Museum not forgetting the Popemobile. After our tour we were met by Micheál Hanlon who talked about the current farming and dairying. We watched potatoes being planted from ground preparation to planting. Then we walked a short distance to view the local church, meeting Maria Hanlon for a chat, and then on to Muchgrange Farm to sample their Milk and Ice Creams
Wildlife and Wildfowl Event
On Saturday 21st February, we held a very enjoyable a successful Wildfowl and Wetland information Family Festival event close to Camlough Lake. The event was supported by Newry, Mourne and Down District council and attended by many of our local politicians from across the community. Lislea Mens Shed hosted the main information point but there was also information stands from USPCA, RSPB and Inland Waterways Association Ireland.
