The traditional meitheal is a concept deeply rooted in Irish culture that emphasizes community cooperation and teamwork. This centuries-old tradition has played an important role in fostering a strong sense of community among the people of Ireland. Originally, meitheal came from a time when neighbors came together to help each other with tasks such as harvesting. This practice created resilient communities that thrived together.
