Clonakilty’s Little Healthfood Emporium
Proudly serving the people of West Cork since 2004
With the spirit of the local shop, we are so happy to be providing Clonakilty with local produce and other fare from near and far, collected over two decades
PRODUCE
VERY LOCAL
We champion our local growers who in turn support us, by continuing to produce the best food the beautiful land around West Cork can offer. We have nurtured relationships with these wonderful stewards of the land who grow food from the earth of West Cork, remembering that when we eat the foods from here we become the very landscape we live in, and it is beautiful.
From fruit and vegetables to natural skincare and supplements, we love knowing the people behind the foods that nourish us and make Clonakilty so proud!
REFILL & WHOLEFOODS
We don’t need to waste so much now, do we!
Since 2017 we have been encouraging our regular shoppers and friends from all around the area to have fun re-using packaging to help encourage less waste and bring more joy. From filling sauvignon bottles with shampoo to stuffing socks with oats, we’ve seen and love it all!
We have whole-foods, spices, toiletries, natural household cleaning products, vinegars, oils, local raw milk and so much more. Take them away in your own container or peruse our refill-ware section for bottles, jars and stainless steel food boxes.
ABOUT
Community and Heritage
The Finn-Beattie family have been trading at The Olive Branch in Clonakilty since 2004, hoping to bring back the wonderment of independent small town centre shopping celebrating variety and character, where everybody has time to stop and chat and have a bit of a laugh, taking time to tell the stories of the week.
Our shop aims to provide everything you need to get by in the general household. Organic fruit and vegetables, fresh bread, natural remedies, supplements, toiletries and skincare, jams, cheese, dairy alternatives, and of course a delicious wine or two. We work with over fifty friends and producers to bring what we deem to be the finest expression of what West Cork can provide us.
Nurturing the community of Clonakilty is in the very bones of what we do.
“Our grandparents worked the village post office down the road, my father Mick Finn was a counsellor, GAA footballer and publican of Mick Finn’s on the corner of Pearse street and Patrick street. My children work with us now, that’s four generations now of independent business in wonderful Clonakilty!”

NATURAL FARE
We love the idea of the timeless local shop, and this is reflected in what we sell. We want to be as close to nature with everything we do, from natural ferments and biodynamic wines to beyond-organic vegetables and natural remedies.
What we are most proud about is to be able to welcome you into the shop and browse our collection of products that we have been passionately collecting over the years, and we stand behind each and every one.
COME SAY HI AND HAVE THE CHATS
Looking forward to seeing you in Clon!
