Hosted by Herbalist Luke Ó hErodáin and his wife Niamh Ó hErodáin.
Step into the turning of the Celtic year and celebrate the preparation for Samhain with a day of herbs, craft, and community. Together we will walk the land, gather plants, prepare seasonal remedies, and share nourishing food (with a wild foraging twist). Throughout the day we will enjoy warming cups of seasonal herbal tea blends, specially prepared for the occasion.
Location: Luke & Niamh’s Cottage, located between Fermoy and Ballyduff (exact location given closer to date after booking).
Limited spaces available! Please book using the ticket link.
