Margaret Edgill is putting on a diverse range of cultural events in Daingean this week.
Workshops, guided walks, and expert talks will take centre stage for National Hedgerow Week in Offaly from today.
Mount Briscoe Organic farm in Daingean is shining a spotlight on hedgerows with a series of events today, Saturday and Sunday.
The theme is artists in hedges - through the spoken word, music, poem or prose and visual art.
The events aim to raise awareness of their role in combating biodiversity loss and climate change.
Festival Curator Margaret Edgill hopes to inspire communities to protect and restore hedgerows in their local areas:
