Dont forget that this weekend we are hosting our summer foraging event here at OURganic Gardens where we team up with the wonderful Sian from Wild Fuschia Bakehouse as part of our Summer Garden & Kitchen Workshops.

Here is what we have planned:

Foraging Walk & Kitchen Workshop

Step into nature with an immersive Foraging Walk, where we’ll identify the top ten wild plants growing around the garden and share practical techniques on how to propagate your own Elderflower plants.

Together, we’ll craft seasonal, small-batch preserves and treats, making Strawberry & Elderflower Jam alongside a warm Blackberry & Apple Coriander Crumble.

To top off the experience, we'll gather in our kitchen to enjoy a hearty Lunch featuring comforting Minestrone Soup, freshly baked homemade Bread, and warm Blackberry & Apple Crumble—all while dining with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and peaceful landscape.

The Details:
Date: Saturday 8th August

Time: 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Where: Here with us at OURganic Gardens, Gortahork

Investment: €85 per workshop (This includes a delicious, freshly prepared lunch, full workshop notes, and a lovely goodie bag to take home!)

Folks , unfortunately we had to cancel our Summer Garden and Kitchen Workshop on Saturday due to low numbers - we just didn't have enough bookings to break even never mind make any profit, which is really sad as we have put so much work into this offering, bought all the produce and really did market it to the best of our abilities. Both on and Off social media.

For those people out there who run their own business you will know how difficult it is to keep all plates spinning at the same time and having the place all set up and ready makes it even harder to call decisions like this.

We are however still aiming to run the other workshops next Sunday and in August , so if I can ask everyone to help us spread the word to anyone coming to Donegal or would like to come to Donegal for a day at OURganic Gardens learning to cook with Wild Fuschia Bakehouse using some amazing fresh homegrown food which we have in abundance right now, then please book today so we look forward to the day together.

Each workshop has a particular focus but we will be covering a lot of the basics in both growing and cooking food so if this is interest do book today and if I can ask all our followers who do tune in and support us to please share this post to someone you know and tell as many people as possible - We have a 10% discount also for any past participants so do also PM for more information on that.

This coming Sunday 26th July we will be looking at Fruit and ways to turn fresh fruit from your garden into some healthy snacks and delicious treats.
For a link to all 3 workshops see poster or pm.
