Every year on March 17, Livingston County goes green as the community joins in celebration of St. Patrick's Day. The luck of the Irish will definitely be with you at these great restaurants and events that are recommended by our real estate agents. 

• Triskel Tours & Celtic Treasures - 201 S. Michigan Ave., Howell, MI 48843
  When Marc and Michelle Harlow opened Triskel Tours & Celtic Treasures in 2017, it was known as Bridget Gallagher's Irish Tours & Treasures.

Stop in to their delightful shop and enjoy a cup of coffee or tea while you browse their selection of Irish specialty foods and gift items. If a visit to the Emerald Isle is on your bucket list, ask the Harlows about their wonderful tours. Hours are 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. Tuesday through Friday and 10 a.m. - 3 p.m. Saturday.
