The completed series will be presented, along&nbsp;with a bespoke publication, at Photo Museum Ireland later this year before touring nationally.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The&nbsp;Bean&nbsp;Feasa&nbsp;exhibition forms part of the wider work of&nbsp;T\u00f3char&nbsp;Midlands Wetland Restoration, one of Ireland\u2019s largest nature restoration initiatives. The project reflects&nbsp;T\u00f3char\u2019s&nbsp;commitment to&nbsp;ensuring that nature restoration is&nbsp;recognised&nbsp;not only as an environmental challenge but&nbsp;also, as a social movement driven by people working within their communities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">T\u00f3char&nbsp;Midlands Wetland Restoration is one of the largest restoration projects currently underway. It is a three-year, \u20ac12 million wetlands restoration project co-funded by the Government of Ireland and the European Union through the EU Just Transition Fund&nbsp;Programme. The project is managed by the National Parks and Wildlife Service within the Department of Housing, Local&nbsp;Government&nbsp;and Heritage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The
