Hello and welcome to our blog, we're James & Eoin, the founders of faerly.
We live in Kildare, Ireland with our chickens and our cat and our aim is to help you to live a simpler and more considered life.
We started Faerly to do our part to help reduce unnecessary chemicals and plastics in the world.
James started his sustainability journey living in Copenhagen more than 20 years ago when faced, for the first time, with what were to him completely foreign objects - recycling bins! He has aspired to the Scandinavian way of life, their respect for nature and their humble worldview ever since.
James' favourite product is Warrior Botanicals deodorant cream. "I was a lifelong destroyer of shirt armpits with antiperspirant sprays. I haven’t looked back since finding this wonder product, handmade in West Cork." and his happy Place is hiking up a mountain
Eoin grew up surrounded by Irish bogland and spent his summers cutting turf, watching tadpoles grow into frogs and listening for the first cuckoo of the season. His passion today is protecting wildlife and biodiversity. Since learning they are the world's greatest natural carbon stores, he now appreciates the bogs of Kildare even more.
Eoin's favourite product is Lily’s Eco Clean, Irish-made cleaning products with no nasty chemicals. "We first found them at the Bloom Festival in 2010 and I have been singing their praises ever since. Eoin's happy place is marching for climate change - people power!
