A brilliant success!

Friday to Sunday signalled the arrival of what was hopefully the first of many great summer gatherings in the wilds of Inishowen.

The gathering organised by a committee including verteran environmentalists & artists Brendan Farren and Kathleen O'Hara, attracted 100s of people from all over to this remote and magical corner of Ireland.

The event took place beside Doagh island famine village and right next to amazing mountains, hills and ocean.

There were plenty of workshops, stalls, demonstrations, parades, gigs, fires, singing, cooking and craic.

The Bitchin Kitchen crew arrived from the Rossport Solidarity camp in Mayo to feed the masses with yummy food.

The event created a real buzz of community, peace, healing, inspiration and 'walking the talk' and everyone left feeling refreshed and re-energised.
