GARDENS at the Urdd Eisteddfod will be handed over to the local community once the festival draws to a close.
The Garddorfa project is an exciting, environmentally friendly, eco-friendly project, which will stimulate young people's interest in nature and the arts.
Eisteddfod organisers have organised a community and arts garden on the Maes, which will be given back to the community after the Eisteddfod to secure a legacy and community activity in the area.
In the Garddorfa there will be a stage for community performers and arts workshops to engage with children and young people who visit the Maes.
There will be gardens of native plants in the Garddorfa to encourage interest in local ecology and nature.
Another focus for the Garddorfa will be to plant instruments from natural materials across the area to create a sensory garden of giant instruments, encouraging creativity and experimenting with sounds and music.

Following the Eisteddfod week, the Urdd will ensure that the gardens remain in the community by handing the gardens over to schools or community organisations in Denbighshire.
Through workshops with gardener Sioned Edwards and volunteers from Denbigh in Bloom, workshops for children and young people in the area will be held in June and July to replant and maintain the gardens.
These workshops offer the opportunity to develop skills and educate on the environment and the impact of having an eco-friendly area within their community that they can own, protect, and maintain.

The project will have a long-term impact, as the gardens will live in the community for years to come, with children and young people learning through the workshops about how to care for the plants.
This information will be passed on from year to year as new children and young people begin to look after the gardens.
The Garddorfa gardens are sponsored by Clocaenog Wind Farm Fund and RWE.
Gardener Sioned Edwards and designer Lois Prys are on the Maes during the week.
