The GLAS @ TU Dublin community garden is a place where people grow more than vegetables.
On a half-acre of land at Technological University Dublin’s Blanchardstown campus, students, local residents, schools and community groups come together to learn practical sustainability skills, connect with nature and build a stronger community.
Delivered by GAP Ireland in partnership with Fingal County Council and TU Dublin, the garden has become a welcoming hub for environmental learning, wellbeing and social inclusion in Dublin 15.
Our 2025 Activity Report highlights the growth of this unique project and the impact it is having on the community.
Over the past year, the garden welcomed more than 2,000 visits and hosted over 200 events, from school sessions and public workshops to volunteering days and biodiversity projects.
Download the report to discover how the garden has evolved, hear the voices of volunteers and participants, and explore how this small patch of land is helping people reconnect with nature, learn about climate action and cultivate a shared sense of hope for the future.
