A look back on festival spirit April 2021
We have been so pleased to welcome you to Festival Spirit...
A mini series of virtual & physically distanced fresh initiatives for the times. Keeping the West Waterford Festival of Food and all it showcases alive in our hearts, minds and appetites and reminding us that although things are different there is still so much that we can celebrate and enjoy. There's some super videos here where you can cook along and lots of info on local food. We're going to do it in person soon!!!

We created these events to get you in the festival mood and join in with the West Waterford Festival Spirit. So many great people got involved over the weekend with the kid's cookalong or the very grown-up cocktail masterclass, More again continue to use the foraging video (fun for all the family) to inspire trips to the great outdoors.
