Clare business Hurst Botanicals is heading to Ploughing 2026!

We’re delighted to see Hurst Botanicals, supported by Local Enterprise Office Clare, selected to showcase their award-winning kombucha at this year’s Local Enterprise Village at the National Ploughing Championships.

Based in Clarecastle and founded by Ellen Quinn and Alex Falco, Hurst Botanicals produces a premium range of naturally fermented kombucha and is proudly Ireland’s only Fairtrade-certified drinks producer.

Their range reflects a strong commitment to quality, sustainability, ethical sourcing and innovation. They will also be launching their 750ml bottles at the Ploughing.

With almost 300,000 visitors expected across the three day event, the Local Enterprise Village offers an incredible opportunity for small Irish businesses to reach new audiences and showcase the very best of local enterprise.

Best of luck to Ellen, Alex and the Hurst Botanicals team, if you are attending the event please be sure to visit their stand 👏
