HERE’S TO SAINT PATRICK


Wishing you a great Saint Patrick’s Day! Whatever your plans for celebrating Ireland’s Patron Saint, we hope you have a great day among family and friends. Many will be attending parades in all the villages, towns and cities of Ireland  – from the shortest Parade in the country, held at Dripsey in Co. Cork, to the major events of Dublin and Cork city.  Something for everyone to enjoy. Today as we watch the news and see President Obama receiving his traditional Bowl of Shamrock from Taoiseach Enda Kenny at The White House, we hope to catch a glimpse of  Good Food Ireland founder Margaret Jeffares, who will also be there to join the celebrations and represent Ireland’s chefs, cooks, farmers , fishermen, producers, food educators and shop keepers  who fly the flag for Irish produce. Here's to a  plate of locally sourced Irish food being at the heart of your celebrations today.  Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!
