In this episode of the Destination Saratoga All-Access, host MacKenzie Zarzycki sits down with Paul O’Donnell, owner of Celtic Treasures in downtown Saratoga Springs. Paul shares the story behind his Irish heritage, the history of the iconic Claddagh ring, and how a conversation with a Canadian farmer inspired him to open his shop more than 30 years ago. The conversation explores the evolution of Saratoga’s Broadway, the importance of locally owned businesses, and the traditions, products, and stories that make Celtic Treasures a beloved destination for both locals and visitors—especially during St. Patrick’s season.
