Environmental Spring Fair at Ballynure

February 2026

Four of our members  had a stall at Ballynure for the annual environmental fair in Ballynature on Saturday in February. We were busy from 10.00 in the morning until after 3.30 in then afternoon - with little chance to draw breath.  We helped a lot  of children make bird feeders from cones rolled in lard and smothered in birdseed. That gave us a great opportunity  to talk to both the adults and children about being more aware of the impact we can have, both good and bad, on the environment. There were lots of other exhibitors and we were able to do some networking. Robin Swann, the ex-health minister called by and we captured the visit (see photo on left).
