The Twisted Shamrock was created to bring beautiful, unique products from Ireland to Michigan. Owner Jim Monahan works hard to find exciting Irish/Celtic artisans who are passionate about their heritage. Ireland is a magical place. The history is rich, the stories are plentiful, and the incredible products are outstanding. Visit The Twisted Shamrock to enjoy a piece of The Emerald Isle. It is our pleasure to share the land of magic with you. Jim Monahan’s great-grandparents on both sides of his family emigrated from Ireland to America. Jim’s great-grandfather, John Monahan, was an adventurous Irishman. He came to America from Drogheda, County Louth, in the 1830’s to find his dream. From panning for gold in the California gold rush, traveling through South America, building railroads through the midwest, he did a variety of things before finally settling in Southern Michigan in the small town of Hudson (Lenawee County). Like so many new Irish Americans of that time, his dreams were made: a successful farmer, land-owner, and businessman. His Irish roots remain strong in Michigan. Jim Monahan is proud to bring his dream, The Twisted Shamrock, to the town he was raised in: Ferndale. From Dublin to New York to Ferndale!
