Episode 156

This week on Let’s Go Green with Aisling O’Rourke on Midlands 103, it’s our festive special; packed with practical tips to help you celebrate Christmas in a more sustainable and mindful way. Yvonne Carty of Hey Pesto joins me with her top advice for keeping your Christmas food both budget-friendly and low-waste. From meal planning to creative ways to use up leftovers, she also shares a few festive recipes that are sure to please without piling up the bin. Aoife McHugh of Timeless Celebrations Ireland offers thoughtful suggestions for sustainable gifting. Whether you’re buying local, reusing, or creating something handmade, Aoife shares plenty of ideas to help make this season special without adding to the environmental burden. As we wrap up the final live show of the year, I want to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has supported Let’s Go Green throughout 2025. I’m taking a short Christmas break and I’m delighted that Zoe Ryan will be stepping in to present the show over the next few weeks.
