HOMEGROWN will air again for the next seven weeks on RTE 1 at 8.30pm from this coming Monday evening 13th March and with no competition from World Cup Football matches this time! We were delighted with the viewing figures for the programmes, and hope that this airing will achieve as good if not better viewing figures.
The episodes will run in the same sequence as the last time, so you may wish to post on your social media platforms in advance of your feature on the programme. I include the schedule below for convenience.
