Kilmeedy Tidy Towns

The Kilmeedy Tidy Towns organisation is a vibrant, community-led group in County Limerick dedicated to enhancing the local environment through sustainability, biodiversity, and civic pride. Driven by a passionate committee of local volunteers, the organisation works year-round to keep the village clean, colourful, and welcoming for residents and visitors.

Rooted in Community Since 1880

The group consistently drives impactful projects that benefit the whole community. Notable initiatives include the Phoenix Project, which enhanced public spaces, the creation of a local walking and biodiversity trail, and the addition of historical murals painted by local artists to celebrate Kilmeedy's heritage. Additionally, the organisation supports local enterprise and the circular economy by promoting a weekly homegrown market and utilizing reclaimed paint for village upkeep.
