#StopBreakfastFoodWaste

They say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But it can also be a stressful part of the morning routine which can lead to food waste.

National Spring Clean Day - Saturday 27/4/24

An Taisce's National Spring Clean project is Ireland's nationwide anti-litter campaign which takes place during the whole month of April in towns and villages. The Hollyfort Tidy Towns regularly litter-pick during the year and now you have an opportunity to join them on Saturday 27th April '24. 

Meet at the crossroads at 11 am or, if you would rather, pledge on our Facebook to clean up the road outside your property. Bags and gloves will be provided - Just ask in Cooney's

Tip of the Month

 

Recycled containers (such as yogurt cups, egg cartons, and toilet paper rolls) are great for starting your seeds indoors. Simply use a nail to poke drainage holes in the bottom, and ensure the containers are thoroughly cleaned before planting.

Old Forge Booklet out

 We are delighted to inform you that the Old Forge booklet is now out! It is available from Cooney's shop and from any member of the Tidy Towns committee.

The booklet contains historical details on Hollyfort's forge with interesting information on the role of the blacksmith in rural villages.
