local food
It all comes down to food. While we're all about fun, it's got to be with the best of food, inspired by the wide world around us, but locally sourced, grown and produced food is what inspired the West Waterford Festival of Food and is what continues to inspire all of us involved.
We're hugely fortunate to have fantastic local eateries, and a wide range of locally produced food and drinks to choose from. From larger, and world renowned producers such as Flahavans, Glanbia, and Dawn Meats, all with origins in West Waterford; to unique and tiny artisan producers.
