From the Ground Up

Archive - all the best places to eat, shop and stay in Ireland. A local guide to local places.

Watching the progress of Jenny French’s beautiful eco store, From The Ground Up, over the last couple of years has been one of the most inspiring and charming success stories in the North West. Beginning with just a stall’s worth of products sold at a pair of local weekly markets, Jenny has steadily and surely progressed and somehow managed to create a stunning new destination retail store, and the first refill shop in Sligo. Behind the progress lies a deep, wise, green philosophy of good food and good living, as Jenny has stocked her shelves and her fridges with essential things for our lives, and essential things for our diets and well-being. She has managed to create a shop that is an aleph of all the treasures of her local food culture: step into From The Ground Up and you can see and enjoy all the good things created by local artisans. So, look for the pretty pink bicycle in little Tubbercurry.
