I’m back!
🌱 Where have you been?
I’ve been enjoying a year focussing on the more important things in life. Building a beautiful relationship with my soon to be wife, building a home after moving house, tending to things that, under the watchful eyes of the digital world, would appear mundane yet are far more important than the metaverse.
I’ve been busy with other things in the herbal world too which just haven’t allowed me the time to focus energy on Instagram or making content.
🌿 Why the radio silence?
It wasn’t so much a choice as it was a natural occurrence. I became allergic of Social Media for a while and decided to focus on the side of my life I keep private. I wanted to “reset” my relationship with Social Media so I could return to it in a healthier way, focussing on being informative and educational with regards to all things on plants and herbalism.
🌳 So what now?
A gentle slip back into relatively regular content about plants, my experience with them, foraging, herbal medicine and linking the lore from the beautiful indigenous cultures from Ireland.
🪴 Will you go on TikTok?
I don’t think so - for various reasons but mostly for keeping everything simple for me. I will draw whoever is interested in my content here or eventually to my YouTube / website. A good quality of followers or community over quantity is what I prefer.
🌲 Will you be making products again?
Most definitely yes, I have a few things happening, so keep an eye out. Due to popular demand, I will be soon making a new batch of Ivy cream!
🐶 Who’s the puppy?
Her name is Talamh (Earth as Gaeilge), our wonderful and beautiful (and sometimes bold) pup.
👉 Any questions for me? Feel free to ask them in the comments

Féile na Bealtaine sa Daingean.
Iománaíocht agus craic.
It was my first hurling match, and surely not my last.
Bealtaine sona duit.

I was gathering Bog Myrtle flowers today. It’s a little late in the season as they begin to fall of coming into May.
Legend says that it the first ale that was brewed on the island.
If you want to know more about Bog Myrtle, why not check out my instagram video about it.
Bhí mé ag bailiú bláthanna raideog inniu. Tá sé deannach sa séasúr ach fuair mé méid maith 🌿
Beannachtaí glasa

Bóchoinneal, Or Garlic Mustard in English, or even Jack in the hedge 🌿
This is a lovely one to find in nature during this time of the year (April). A delicious forage!

I walked around my herb garden today to see how the plants are keeping.
I was pleasantly inspired 🌿🦊🦌

Foraging through @bellurgan_park I find myself in a trove of food and medicine.
I even had a foraging helper, Harley, my good brother Eddie’s hound.
I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s foraging walk @foxandhawks around the land, it is ABUNDANT 🌿.
Nettles, wild garlic, ground elder, dandelion, cleavers, Japanese knotweed, white deadnettles and so much more. 🌿
Here is a short reel of todays adventure.
Have a lovely week,
