Rooted in Grá (love) for the planet and open to all who share it, TEM connects you with a vibrant community of businesses and organisations across Ireland, all dedicated to creating positive environmental and social impact. Support our mission to plant native Irish trees—donate today! Every contribution helps us grow, plant more trees, and continue supporting our network of conscious businesses and organisations.
Who We Are
Hi there! I’m Lorna Anne Tierney, a plant-powered climate activist with a passion for reshaping how we consume. I created The Earthy Marketplace (TEM) to make sustainable, community-focused living the norm across Ireland.
At TEM, we believe in the power of our purchases—every euro we spend is a vote for the kind of world we want to create. Our goal is simple: to connect people with businesses and organisations that are committed to sustainability, ethical practices, and making a positive difference for people and the planet.
Together, we’re building a future where eco-conscious choices are easy, accessible, and something to get excited about!
What’s New at TEM?
We have big news: The Earthy Marketplace is now completely FREE for businesses and organisations to join!
We’ve removed all membership fees so we can welcome more eco-friendly enterprises and inspire even more conscious consumers. By breaking down this barrier, we’re making TEM a thriving community of sustainable businesses, organisations, and supporters.
What We Offer
TEM is more than a directory—it’s a movement! Here’s how we make it easy to live sustainably and shop consciously:
- Sustainable Shops: Businesses offering everything from fashion and beauty to homeware—all rooted in sustainability.
- Farm Finder: Independent growers providing fresh, seasonal, and organic produce.
- Earthy Eats: Restaurants and cafés serving vegan or plant-based options.
But that’s not all! We also highlight:
- Earthy Offers: Special deals and discounts from TEM businesses.
- Earthy Notices: Job and volunteering opportunities with eco-conscious organisations.
- Earthy Events: Sustainable events across Ireland, from beach clean-ups to farmers’ markets.
Our Commitment to the Planet
TEM has always been about giving back to the Earth. Previously, we planted native Irish trees through membership fees. Now, with the move to free memberships, we’re introducing a voluntary donation programme to keep this vital work going.
This means:
- You can support tree planting at your own pace.
- We’ll celebrate every contributor and ensure full transparency in how donations are used.
Together, we can keep planting seeds of hope—one tree at a time!
Earthy Friends
We’re proud to champion NGOs, charities, and not-for-profit organisations working in sustainability, community action, climate change, and animal welfare.
Our Earthy Friends Programme offers these organisations a platform to:
- Share their mission with a growing community.
- Promote events, campaigns, and volunteering opportunities.
- Network with like-minded changemakers.
It’s free to join, and it’s our way of giving back to the incredible organisations doing important work for people and the planet.

Joining TEM is free, easy, and packed with benefits!
- For Businesses: Showcase your sustainable practices to a wider audience without the financial pressure of membership fees.
- For Consumers: Find amazing local businesses, sustainable shops, and inspiring organisations—all in one place.
