Gurtagarry is a close knit rural community about 8km from Toomevara, County Tipperary, shaped by open countryside, a strong farming tradition and long standing neighbourly ties. The area balances privacy with a lively local spirit, supported by shared spaces, local initiatives and events that bring people together throughout the year.

This website showcases community life in Gurtagarry, from weekly activities to local amenities, volunteer projects and annual traditions…

The classes rotate between yoga, mindfulness, Pilates and breathwork, offering a gentle and inclusive way to start your week.
Sessions are open to all levels and are designed to support both physical and mental wellbeing in a relaxed, community setting.

Donate to Our Community Garden
At its heart, the project is about something very simple: bringing people together around food, nature, learning and community.
This isn’t intended to be a short-term project.
We hope that trees planted today will still be producing fruit decades from now. We hope children who learn to grow food here will one day bring their own children into the garden. And we hope the knowledge, friendships and sense of community created here will spread far beyond the garden itself.
Much of the project is being built through local people giving their time, energy, skills and resources. We are taking things step by step and building as our means allow.
We aren’t running a fundraising event or asking anyone to feel obliged to contribute. We simply know that, from time to time, someone may come across our project online, connect with what we’re trying to create and want to help us along the way.
If that’s you, and you have the means to contribute, we would be incredibly grateful for your support.
Every donation, large or small, will be used carefully and responsibly to help develop the garden – from seeds, trees and soil improvement to tools, growing spaces, water infrastructure and the other practical things needed to create a garden that can flourish long into the future.
Most importantly, your contribution won’t simply be helping us build a garden.
You’ll be helping us grow food, knowledge, connection and community – and hopefully create something that will still be here for generations to come.
