2021

In a year like no other, as our love affair with food reached an all-time high & we didn’t know if our beloved food festival would go ahead or not in real life…what to do only organise a #virtualtouroftheleevalley

Happily, Macroom Food Festival 2021 did go ahead, in a safer, socially distanced fashion.

But in addition, our aim with this online series is to further showcase the wonderful food producers, traders & hospitality of this area, not only here in Cork, Munster & around Ireland, but to our international friends who are beginning to return to our island. We hope you enjoy this little love story & if you like it, please share to ensure as wide an audience as possible knows just how great the food of the #leevalley really is!

Featuring: Follain Jams, Castle Hotel Macroom, Coolea Cheese, Lost Valley Dairy, Gloun Cross Dairy, Toons Bridge Dairy, Lynchs Arán Na HÉireann, Macroom Buffalo Mozzarella, The Real Olive Company, De Roiste Foods, Michael Twomey Butchers, The Mills Inn, The Auld Triangle Gougane Barra Hotel, Pickled Deli, Dinneen's Bar, O'Tuama Tours, Fitz-Gerald's Bookshop and Chocolate Café, Cafe Muesli, Vaughans Cafe
