Summary
Cork’s shining green spotlight: Kinsale and Rosewood Estate are among Ireland’s top green contenders for 2026, nominated as Greenest Town/Village and Suburb respectively—both rising from nearly 90 national submissions. Kinsale, birthplace of the global Transition Town Movement, leads with solar installs and community skill-sharing. Rosewood Estate turned two acres into a buzzing meadow and orchard, now an urban oasis attracting birds and teaching residents traditional scything—all while launching a community solar project with 30 households signed up. With the shortlist dropping next week and the winner announced in October, these grassroots efforts prove what happens when communities unite for sustainability.
