Castleknock Tidy Towns Castleknock Tidy Towns is an environmental, sustainability and climate action group which also undertakes community Clean Ups. Stay as long as you like.

Our volunteers work together to help make Castleknock a special place to live, work and enjoy. Our story so far...

Castleknock Tidy Towns was resurrected in March 2019, after a gap of 18 years. From April to the end of Sept volunteers meet each Saturday morning at 10am at Myo’s car park and spend two hours cleaning up around Castleknock village and its approach roads. You will see us out and about in our high-vis jackets (with our orange wheelbarrows!). Then we retire together at 12 noon to Myo’s for a much-needed cuppa and sweet treats (on the house, in conjunction with the Silver Spoon café who provide scones and other goodies too). We even get home-baked goodies from some volunteers at times! On Wednesday evenings (7.30pm - 9pm) during the summer months, we meet in Myo’s car park for a ‘tidy up’ around the village. From Oct to Mar, we meet on the first Saturday of each month (except in Jan). We follow Government guidelines to keep people safe during Covid. All volunteers are welcome to come along. It’s on a ‘turn up, if you’re around and available basis’. No pressure! Check out our website, with all our stories and latest news: www.castleknocktidytowns.com or our Instagram page

Thanks so much for your support.

Saturday Tree Planting!

The CTT team was out this morning. We had the first outing for the new CTT e-cargo bike, transporting fruit trees to Park Drive Green.
Thanks to Fingal County Council, who kindly prepared the planting holes.
We planted 8 apple and 2 plum trees, creating a lovely expansion to the existing orchard.

Around the fruit trees, we planted 200 crocus bulbs, along with yarrow and vetch. In the centre, we created a small rockery and added wild strawberries propagated in the CTT polytunnel.

Park Drive Green is another very special green space in Castleknock. It’s well worth a visit to see the orchard, flowers and wild strawberry rockery and watch the space develop.
Great team effort. Thank you to everyone!🌻🪾🪏☘️

🚲💚 Great news for CTT!
A big thank you to Fingal County Council Active Travel for allowing us to pilot their eCargo bike for the past two years. It has been a fantastic asset to our Saturday work, helping us transport tools, plants, watering cans and green waste around Castleknock without using cars.
Since May 2024, we’ve travelled 401 km on the bike and, importantly, it has helped us transport green waste to our 35 compost bays, recycling approximately 90% of green waste. This also contributed to avoiding FCC truck collection journeys – around 3,320 km of vehicle travel. 🌱
Following the success of the pilot, we’re delighted that county council Climate Action has now funded a new eCargo bike for CTT! 🎉
A huge thank you to county council , Bleeper — and to all our volunteers who have made such great use of the bike. Another great example of CTT putting sustainability into action. 🚲🌿

Thanks to everyone for coming out last Saturday!
We planted out some stock from the polytunnel including our home grown native Irish foxgloves.
And thanks to Myo’s as always for the shelter at the end.
