Organic Farm & Ecology Centre, Wicklow
An Tairseach was founded in the 1990s by a small group of Dominican Sisters who set out to transform 70 acres of land into an organic farm. An Tairseach means ‘Threshold’ in Irish – it was chosen as a reflection of being ‘in-between’ understandings of our place in the world. In all courses and retreats now held in An Tairseach’s organic environment, the mission is to help people participate in a sense of belonging to the Universe, to celebrate interconnectedness. After clearing the soil of chemicals, restoring its fertility, improving hedgerows, laying out pathways and planting thousands of trees, An Tairseach acquired organic status in 2006. The community now sells bountiful organic produce at their own on-site shop and at three local markets – Killruddery, Bray and Pearse Street.
Jams & Chutneys, Wicklow
The Birds & The Teas is the enterprise of Pat and Olive Germaine, partners and creators of delicious tea-time favourites using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Pat’s recipes are handed down from her own mother – now enlivened with a modern twist. The Birds & The Teas’ products now include jams, relishes, chutneys and baked goods. “Our customers often describe our products as memories in a jar, bringing them back to their childhood kitchens. We believe if you put the good stuff in, you get the good stuff out.” Products include: Oh So Vine: tomato & chili relish; Last Mango In Paris: mango chutney; Red Or Dead: red onion marmalade and The Waldorf: toasted walnut and apple chutney.

On Saturday 21st of September our Farm Market had an apple flavour! There was apple pressing, cider tasting and live traditional Irish music from local band Seoidín. The press was working from 10.30-2.30. Visitors brought their own apples and something to hold the liquid gold!

Our Vintage/flea themed market was absolutely unique this year with amazingly creative local traders. From all things chippy, rusty, vintage and handmade, visitors found that perfect vintage dress, a one-of-a-kind piece of furniture, handmade jewellery, or some other amazing treasures for their homes or gardens. We were joined by Vintage La Touche, The Vestry, Kate’s Sample Sale, Laura Kate’s Crafts, Tony’s Records and many more! W/ live music from Tailor Birds.
Our market is both indoor and outdoor.
