Enniscorthy & Monart Union of Parishes Flower Festival is taking place in St. Mary’s Church, Church Street, Enniscorthy this weekend – Friday to Sunday, September 13th-15th– and the organisers are looking forward to welcoming visitors
The flower festival is being run in conjunction with Co. Wexford Garden and Flower Club, who are Gold Medal Winners at Bloom, 2023 and 2024, and are working extremely hard planning over fifty beautiful floral arrangements to adorn the church.
Very Reverend Canon Nicola Halford told WexfordLocal.com; “We are excited to showcase our wonderful church and the talent and creativity of the flower arrangers. The theme of our flower festival is ‘Harvest – all things bright and beautiful’ and it will be a celebration of community and thanksgiving for all of God’s goodness to us.”
Tickets to the festival are available on the door at St. Mary’s Church and the cost is €10 per person which includes a festival programme and refreshments in the Church Institute, following your visit to the church. There will also be an opportunity to purchase homemade produce and plants in the Church Institute.
The festival will conclude on Sunday at 6pm with an Ecumenical Harvest Thanksgiving Service. The service will be led by clergy and church leaders from the town and is being organised in conjunction with the IFA. The preacher will be Bishop Ger Nash.
