East Galway Food Festival takes place on Saturday

The inaugural East Galway Food Festival takes place at St Brendan’s Home, Loughrea, this Saturday from 12 noon to 5pm.

The festival will be held in honour of Stoney Brennan, a local character who was hanged for stealing a turnip long ago. The festival aims to highlight the quality of locally-produced food, the music and folklore of the district, and the nearby Slieve Aughty mountains.

Among the events organised will be a BBQ in aid of Enable Ireland, and a concert of music, song, and poetry. There will be 20 stalls providing a wide range of fruit, vegetables, fine foods, and crafts. There will also be bouncy castles, face painting, and a picnic area.

Stalls can still be organised and entrants for the bread making competition are still welcome. For more information contact 087 - 9296163. For more information on the overall festival contact 087 - 6797801 or email [email protected]
