Here’s the clip of Brilliant Ballybunion’s appearance from Wednesday, 16th April on RTE’s Home Grown for Brilliant Ballybunion and The Barna Way.
Calling all nature enthusiasts – A new community group is forming in Ballybunion for anyone interested in Nature. We live surrounded by a unique and special coastline where we have many important species of plants and animals. One of those species is the ringed plover, a small ground nesting wader that breeds along our coastline. A kick-off meeting will be held in Coast cafe on Friday 21st March at 7pm with plans on how the group will start to follow these little birds breeding season and document their success rates locally as well as identify ways we can help them.
Come along and get involved and let’s identify exciting ways we can get out in nature while contributing to the conservation of the special habitats we have surrounding us.
The Brilliant Ballybunion Team wish to thank everyone who attended the North Kerry Sustainability Day on Sunday 23rd February 2025. We were delighted to have such a great response and positive feedback. Over two hundred people attended on the day.
So great to see all the interest in nature, food, energy, creativity and climate action. We appreciate all the contributions by local first responders, farmers, ecologists, artists, professionals, business owners, children and everyone who attended on the day. We were delighted to welcome so many people from The Maharees Conservation Association and Neart na Machairí creative climate action project.
Thank you to all the people who shared their knowledge in the stalls and to Rituals of Plate for the delicious homemade organic food. Special thanks to the volunteers who helped on the day and the team at the Tintean Theatre.
At this point we would really appreciate your feedback and we invite you to get involved in future projects or events.
