About This Event

Join Our Earthy Collective for a cosy evening of good food, good people and a little Samhain magic! All while giving back! ✨ Come gather with the Collective Sunday, 1 November 2026 | 5pm–8pm | Cornucopia, Dublin Join Our Earthy Collective for a cosy evening of community, creativity, good food and seasonal celebration. As the seasons turn and the evenings draw in, we're gathering to celebrate Samhain, a turning point in the Celtic seasonal calendar and a time to reflect on the changing season as the darker half of the year begins. Whether you're coming with friends or arriving on your own, you're warmly welcome. This is an evening to slow down, enjoy good food, meet like-minded people, and celebrate the season together. 🥘 Good food, good company We'll begin by coming together over a delicious vegan main course with a side from Cornucopia, one of Dublin's much-loved plant-based restaurants. It's a chance to settle in, share a meal and ease into the evening. Your ticket also includes one drink of your choice. Whether you fancy a cheeky glass of wine or a beer, a refreshing kombucha, fresh juice or another non-alcoholic option, the choice is entirely yours. 🍁 Time to connect, create and unwind After the meal, there'll be space to mingle, chat and enjoy the social side of the evening. We'll have seasonal crafts and creative activities to get involved in, alongside a relaxed atmosphere for meeting new people and spending time together. You might find yourself making something autumn-inspired, settling into a game of chess or cards, or simply enjoying a drink and a good conversation. There's no pressure to take part in everything. Whether you're feeling creative, sociable or simply in the mood to unwind, we'd love you to feel at home. 🍃 Our tree-planting partnership We're delighted to welcome Gearóid McEvoy, founder of Reforest Nation and Our Earthy Collective's tree-planting partner, who will join us to share more about his work and the impact of native Irish tree planting. Gearóid will tell us about the work Reforest Nation is doing to restore Ireland's native woodlands, and the trees that donations from our Samhain Social will help plant. It's a wonderful opportunity to hear first-hand how our contributions make a difference, learn more about the importance of restoring native habitats, and discover how small collective actions can create a lasting positive impact on our natural environment. 🎙️ Bringing the evening together: our open mic As the evening unfolds, we'll come together for an open mic celebrating creativity, stories and shared expression. We're delighted to welcome Ceara Carney, host of the Book of Leaves Podcast, as our MC for the open mic. Ceara will also take part herself, helping create a welcoming space for poetry, short stories, personal reflections, music, and other creative contributions. Have something you'd like to share? We'd love to hear from you. Email ourearthycollective@mailbox.org so we can plan the evening. All styles and voices are welcome.
