Community Garden Competition 2025 Returns with €5,000 in Prizes

The summer is already here. The skies are brighter (on most days), the bees are back in business, and everyone’s looking for ways to enjoy the good weather. One great way to make the most of this Irish summer is by taking part in the MFCU Community Garden Competition 2025. This simple and rewarding contest helps you improve your community garden while giving back to your neighbourhood.

That’s where we come in. The MFCU Community Garden Competition is back for 2025, and we’re making it bigger than ever. We’re investing up to €5,000 in local gardens this year. Whether you’re growing herbs, flowers or community spirit, we want to help you make your space greener and even more rewarding.

Why Community Gardens Matter

A community garden is more than just a patch of soil. It’s a shared space where neighbours come together to grow plants, vegetables, and ideas. These gardens brighten up unused land, support local biodiversity, and help people stay active and connected.

They also promote food security, improve mental health, and offer a place for all ages to learn, grow, and work together. And the best part? You don’t need to be an expert. With a bit of effort and a shared goal, any space can become something special.

Why Participate in MFCU Community Garden Competition?

Every approved entry in the Community Garden Competition 2025 receives €250 to spend on garden improvements. It’s a great way to give your local garden a boost, whether that means planting new flowers, adding fencing, or painting a wall.

Once you’ve made the upgrades, just share a few photos with us. That’s all it takes to qualify for the €1,000 grand prize. It’s a brilliant chance to secure even more funding and keep your garden growing.

So not only do you get guaranteed support with the €250 grant, but you also have the chance to win an extra €1,000 to build something special for your community. It’s a win-win and a great reason to get involved.
