Fáilte Welcome to Irish Culture and Customs, a labor of love we began several years ago. What started as a surprise milestone birthday trip to Ireland became the beginning of a journey through time. A 2,000-year voyage on a quest to learn as much as we can about everything Irish. So here's where we are so far - more than 700 pages that range from Irish poetry, superstitions , Kids Stories and recipes to specific Irish calendar celebrations such as St. Patrick's Day , Beltane, Samhain and the Feast of St. Brigid. Whether it's an Irish symbol such as the shillelagh, the Shamrock and the Book of Kells or an Irish craft like Aran Isle knitting, you'll discover a wide range of topics in our index. We hope you find the little bit of Ireland you may be looking for.

The Ould Lammas Fair by Bridget Haggerty The Ould Lammas Fair takes place in Ballycastle, Co. Antrim on the last Monday and Tuesday in August. It's one of the oldest fairs in Ireland and has been held without interruption for more than three centuries.

Making a Match in Lisdoonvarna Matchmaking is one of Ireland's oldest traditions and, for the last couple of hundred years, a good deal of it has taken place in Lisdoonvarna during September and early October. The Rose of Tralee How The Ballad Came To Be

One of Ireland's most popular songs was written by William Pembroke Mulchinock who fell in love with one Mary O'Connor, a maid in service to his parents. Fact or fiction, the following account, which was compiled from various sources, tells of an unrequited romance between a wealthy Protestant lad and a poor Catholic colleen.

The Rose of Tralee Festival Edited and adapted by Bridget Haggerty from RTÉ promotional copy The Rose of Tralee International Festival now in its 48th year is steeped in history and continues to remain in the hearts of the Irish community both in Ireland and overseas. The event is themed on the love song “The Rose of Tralee” written by a nineteenth century wealthy merchant for his lost love Mary O’Connor. The festival continues to grow and now incorporates 33 centres from the island of Ireland and 25 overseas centres from locations such as North America, Great Britain, Europe, Dubai, Australia and New Zealand. Putting out the hare, putting on the harvest knots by Bridget Haggerty

Small animals retreated from advancing harvesters by hiding in the remaining crop, and in the old days, every farmer went to great lengths to ensure that his last field would be harvested before a next door neighbor or other man in the village. Thus the call..."Have you put the hare out yet?"

Who was Behind The Doors of Dublin? by Bridget Haggerty It was 1970 around St. Patrick’s Day that a colourful collage of Dublin doors appeared in the window of the irish Tourism offices on Fifth Avenue in New York City. People on their way to watch the parade were stopped in their tracks by what they saw. Drawn by the uniqueness of the image, many of them went inside to find out where they could get a copy. There were so many requests that Joe Malone, North American Manager of Bord Fáilte at the time, commissioned the poster that has since become an icon of Ireland.

Traditional Irish Toffee - Yellowman "Did you treat your Mary-Ann To dulse and yellow man At the old Lammas Fair at Ballycastle-oh?" Until recently, we didn't know where this verse or lyric originated, but thanks to a lovely Welshman, we do now. He kindly sent us the following:

Basic Irish - Hobbies & Sports Terms By no means an all-inclusive list, just enough to have fun with! Next week, we'll have a few phrases incorporating some of the following words. Kids Ireland: Irish children learning through film Adapted from an article by Apple UK Teaching through film is helping Ireland’s children learn key skills in communication, teamwork, problem solving and critical thinking. The Government’s FÍS film project has proved such a success that all of Ireland’s 3,500 primary schools will soon be using film right across the teaching curriculum.

Music Review: Daybreak - Fáinne an Lae by William Ramoutar She is from a small town in West Kerry, but she is a singer and musician of such power and virtuosity that she can hold her own on any stage. And for the past five years she has been fronting one of the most exciting bands to come out of Ireland for many a year. The band in question is, of course, Danú. A powerhouse of wonderfully individual players, together their music is at once traditional and also impressively modernistic. They have all the presence of a rock band in their sound.

Letter of the Month - June We receive many lovely letters from visitors to our web site and subscribers to our newsletter. As we’re fond of saying, your feedback helps to make all of the time and effort worth while. While we have a Readers Write Page where we post comments from time to time, we’ve decided to also select a Letter of the Month - one that, for whatever reason, tickled our fancy.

Greetings We went to Ireland a little over a year ago and between RTE radio and your news letter, I can hold on to the wonderful feelings we had. Must admit, I love Clare FM the best. Around here from 6 -11 pm our time (including the 5 hour time difference) there is a DJ named Mike who is just like a step down memory land. A time when D J's were live, requests were taken and I must admit that the passion for "they fell in love and one of them died" music keeps me laughing! You must try it sometime. As for the reason for this message, when I was in Ireland I bought a bottle of perfume called FROND. Haven't been able to find it on any websites. It is wonderful for summer, especially with the humidity we have been having in PA. It is light and floral. Just reminds me of walking through a field. Any idea where I can find more? Thank you for your newsletter, I love it. Donna K. Fetter ED. NOTE: We always appreciate positive comments and it spurs us on to repay the kindness. In this case, we went looking for FROND perfume and after a bit of digging we found it here: Wee bit of Ireland Store. Photo Credit: Gift Box We also looked up the URL for Clare FM and here it is. Enjoy! http://www.clarefm.ie/ Image: The Letter by Kirsten Soderlind, Note card from All Posters Caption: We lost a lot when we stopped writing letters. You can't reread a phone call.

The Phoenix Park, Co. Dublin Five times the size of Hyde Park in London and twice as big as Central Park in NYC, Páirc an Fhionn-Uisce is the largest urban enclosed park in Europe, with a circumference of seven miles and a total area 1,760 acres. Located west of the city centre, it features ornamental gardens, nature trails, and broad expanses of grassland separated by avenues of trees. A herd of fallow deer have roamed the forested areas since the 17th century. Main attractions within the park include Aras an Uachtaráin - the residence of the Irish president and Dublin Zoo. The name is a corruption of the Irish fionn uisce meaning "clear water". Photo Credit: Dublin i.e. Click for More Culture Corner. Fill out your email address to receive our Free Newsletter!
