About

Vegan Éire is a new website for Irish vegans and seeks to spread the vegan message on the island of Ireland.

We endeavour to keep readers up to date on news, events, new vegan products, vegan friendly places to eat and drink, as well as features and opinion pieces on veganism in Ireland.

Fun Fact

Éire in Irish means ‘Ireland’, but without the fada (that little slanted line on top of the first letter) eire on its own means ‘a burden’.

If you’re already vegan, you’ll know veganism is anything but a burden, but unfortunately we couldn’t include the fada in our official website address! Just in case you’re a gaeilgeoir and were confused!

It’s pronounced like ‘era’ and we like to think of it as a new vegan era for Ireland. Just watch this space!

Make sure to follow us on social media!
