Irish Grown Wool Council
The Irish Grown Wool Council will once again join in the West Kerry Wool Marquee in Orchard Lane @ Dingle Food Festival from Saturday 5th – Sunday 6th October 2024. The Wool Marquee returns to Dingle Food festival following its success and engagement with visitors last year during the Festival. Spearheaded by West Kerry Wool, INFHA Kerry and Kerry Lamb Co-Op. Expect expert panel talks on wool, display of Irish grown wool products and wool spinning over the two days of the festival.
An all-island initiative, the objective of the Irish Grown Wool Council is to transform Irish-grown wool; an underutilised and undervalued resource, into a branded, value-added product for the benefit of farmers and the wider supply chain. The Irish Grown Wool Council are developing collaborations to apply innovative solutions to address current challenges and create pioneering innovation in wool and sustainable practices.
There will be a number of panel discussions across the weekend at 2pm on each day.
