🎃 Add this to your weekend plans immediately. 🎃
If you’re already counting down to Halloween, we’ve found the perfect autumnal day out - and it involves 30,000 homegrown Irish pumpkins. 🍂
Joe’s Farm Crisps in Killeagh, Co. Cork is inviting visitors to get stuck into its seriously wholesome pumpkin-picking experience, with this weekend tipped as one of the best times to visit thanks to the huge selection of pumpkins and good ground conditions.
Pick your own Irish pumpkin straight from the field, gather some fresh veggies and soak up all those gorgeous autumn vibes while you’re there. 🍁
And, of course, there are plenty of photo opportunities, with brand-new photo props now part of the experience. 📸
🍕 Make a day of it with lunch on the farm
All that fresh country air is guaranteed to work up an appetite, so don’t leave without trying the farm’s famous hand-cut chips, made using their very own potatoes grown just a few feet away.
You can also tuck into pizzas, including a seriously tempting seasonal pumpkin pizza topped with Ardsallagh goat’s cheese and Ballymaloe Relish. 🤤
Basically, pumpkins + autumn photos + farm food = the perfect October day out.

New baby, no time for yourself? We hear you 👶🏻 

Finding the time to get your hair done when you’ve got a little one can feel nearly impossible, but one Cork salon has come up with a very handy solution.

Vibe & Vision on Cook Street is hosting a special Mom & Baby Day every Thursday, where mums can get their hair done without having to find someone to mind the baby.

The salon is baby-friendly, so your little one can come along while you enjoy some much-needed hair time.

Because sometimes you just need a fresh blow-dry and your baby in tow.

Ever missed an iconic pub or a lost shopfront that vanished from the city? 🏙✨

Meet Seán, the Shandon resident who is quietly shrinking down the Real Capital in mind-blowing detail with his project, Tiny Cork! 🎨📐

It all started with a simple daily routine: getting his first dog. 🐕

“A few years ago, I got my first dog, which meant daily walks around the city and around then was when I started really, properly looking at the town around me,” Seán explains. “We have so much interesting architecture... So I started trying to capture some of that.”

Using techniques honed from painting Airfix planes and Warhammer figures, Seán recreates local spots that hit a deep chord with Cork locals. Whether it’s memories of the Queen’s Old Castle or debating which iteration of An Bróg you grew up with, his miniatures capture a moment in time that brings back a flood of nostalgia.

Want to see one in person?

📍 Pub Spotting: Eagle-eyed pub-goers can see his tiny model of O’Sho sitting right behind the actual bar on George’s Quay!

🖼 Exhibition & Commissions: He is currently building up a collection for a future in-person exhibition and takes on a very limited number of private commissions (recreating family homes and local businesses).

Support local artists and take a look at his unbelievable work! 👇

Old Library Tickets And 1960s Summons Letters Uncovered During Massive Crawford Art Gallery Renovation 📜🔍

If you’ve been wondering what’s going on behind the scenes of Cork’s biggest cultural revamp, things are getting seriously interesting inside the Crawford Art Gallery.

Eight months into the gallery’s massive redevelopment project—following the team officially handing over the keys to PJ Hegarty & Sons and the OPW back in January - workers have started uncovering a treasure trove of historical artifacts hidden beneath the floorboards and behind the walls.

According to Gallery Director Mary McCarthy, opening up the historic building has brought plenty of fascinating surprises:

Hidden Under the Floorboards: Construction crews have pulled up decades of lost history, including vintage library tickets, 1960s summons letters, old parking tickets, retro cigarette packs, and matchboxes.

Architectural Gems: Hidden historic fireplaces have also been uncovered after being concealed behind wall paneling for years.

It turns out decades of Cork history were literally sitting right beneath our feet✨

✨ There’s something so satisfying about seeing an old space get a whole new lease of life. 🏡💛

Instead of sitting empty, a historic stone-walled yard in the heart of Midleton is being transformed into what could become one of East Cork’s most exciting new coffee destinations. ☕️🌿

Coolbawn Yard is the latest venture from siblings Sean and Vicki Buckley, who are breathing new life into the beautiful space with plans to open by the end of the summer. 🙌

The vision? A vibrant outdoor courtyard where great coffee meets delicious food, artisan markets, pop-up events, and local businesses, all set against a backdrop of gorgeous original stonework and plenty of character. 🌞🪴🛍🍰

It sounds like the kind of place you’ll pop into for “just a coffee”... and somehow still be there three hours later. 😌☕️

We absolutely love seeing historic spaces being reimagined rather than left empty, and we can’t wait to see this one come to life. ❤️
