A Christmas Special

August 12, 2024

Join us for a short festive offering - featuring the remarkable Dara McAnulty and the Glencree Valley wren boys.

Produced by The Shaking Bog Festival - celebrating our connection to the natural world - in collaboration with Coillte Nature & Mermaid Arts Centre.

Dara McAnulty’s book ‘Diary of a Young Naturalist’ (pub. Little Toller Books) is now widely available. He is the youngest ever winner of the prestigious 2020 Wainwright Prize for Nature Writing. He has also won the Sunday Independent Newcomer of the Year award and his book was named Hay Festival Book of the Year 2020.

The Shaking Bog asks you to support independent booksellers where possible.
