It was a real privilege to welcome Mary Robinson to Skeaghanore yesterday as she visited to learn more about, and show her support for, indigenous Irish food producers.
Mary’s contribution to Ireland and far beyond is remarkable — from becoming Ireland’s first female President, to her work with the United Nations and her continued leadership on human rights, climate justice and the future of our planet.
This photo is particularly special to us, with three generations of our family together — my parents, ourselves and our children — on the farm and in the business that our family has built over many years.
For our young girls especially, it was wonderful to meet someone who has shown throughout her life that an Irish woman from the west of Ireland can go on to make a difference on the world stage. A pretty special role model to have standing in the yard!
Thank you, Mary, for taking the time to visit, for your interest in what we do, and for continuing to champion Irish communities and producers.
