Join horticultural therapist Fiann Ó Nualláin for a guided walk and talk along the beautiful banks of the River Barrow in Leighlinbridge, exploring the powerful role of plants in natural health and everyday wellbeing.
Set against the rich biodiversity of the River Barrow, this walk is a chance to reconnect with traditional knowledge and rediscover the value of plants as a source of healing, nourishment and care. With Fiann’s engaging style and genuine passion, this is an experience that will change how you see and use the natural world. Fiann will also share valuable tips on how time spent in nature can soothe the mind, reduce stress and help restore a sense of balance in our everyday lives
